SENIOR LIVING
Golden Health Care
Golden Healthcare Group’s position at
the forefront of Canterbury’s residential
care services is cemented by a state-ofthe-art
facility being developed at Lady
Wigram Retirement Village.
The concept is to provide hotel-style
accommodation for those residents
who enjoy being part of a vibrant, social
community.
The group has already completed 50
villas with an additional 17 to be completed
by early 2017. Until the full project is
finalised, one of the villas built during
the first stage of construction has been
converted to accommodate social events
such as bowls, happy hours, high teas and
television viewing of sports fixtures.
Once the project is complete, it will
comprise 101 villas, 73 apartments, and
100 care beds. The proposed facilities will
include a rest home, hospital, and dementia
facilities, and permanent amenities such
as a community centre, Bowling Green,
swimming and spa pools, a gym, a theatre,
a library, and a hairdressing salon.
The villas will be offered in a
combination of two and three bedrooms
whereas apartment residents will have a
choice between one and two bedrooms.
The Lady Wigram Retirement Village is
a short stroll from The Landing, the central
retail hub of the Wigram Skies subdivision,
and only a short drive to Hornby Mall, the
Hornby Working Men’s Club and the city.
Lady Wigram Retirement Village is
one of eight facilities operated by Golden
Healthcare Group that offer a variety of
residential care services.
The large Christchurch-based group is
a privately owned provider that strives to
support every aspect of aged care.
Rest home care is provided in the Golden
Age Rest Home and Brookhaven Rest
Home, both of which also encompass
retirement villages. Brookhaven also
has a dementia care unit along with the
dedicated Camellia Court, Albarosa, and
Somerfield rest homes. Furthermore,
the Hoon Hay Rest Home is a dedicated
dementia wing, but the Hoon Hay House
on the same site specialises in mental
health.
Within the facilities, there are plenty
of opportunities to create unique
environments for differing requirements
for residents. Nursing care is provided
by registered nurses, regular scheduled
medical appointments and on-call doctors
ensure residents’ health is well monitored.
An activities co-ordinator ensures residents
will never be bored and they participate in
programmed activities, games, sing-alongs
with performances by visiting entertainers,
library book exchange and exercise
programmes. The group has four vans to
utilise for residents outings.
Each facility has its own kitchen and
offers nutritious home-style meals and
baking, and special diets are catered for.
Golden Healthcare employs 260 at its
facilities which care for about 350 residents.
All staff are highly trained, experienced,
and qualified in their roles.
Each facility offers regular resident and
family meetings to ensure feedback is
encouraged, and dementia facilities also
offer educational evening for families to
understand the dementia process. Respite
care is also provided at all facilities.

Time Honoured Remedy
According to a country Doctor “D.C.
Jarvis” from Vermont in the USA cider
vinegar and honey (CV & H) can be an
important part of a long healthy life. Dr.
Jarvis noted Vermonters who regularly
consumed cider vinegar and honey had
excellent health with many putting in a
vigorous day’s work on the farm even when
well into their eighties.
Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider vinegar
and honey on arthritis can be remarkable
with many patients reporting almost total
relief after taking a course of the cider
vinegar and honey. Dr. Jarvis surmised that
the acid and potassium in cider vinegar
counteracted calcium deposits and helped
the body control calcium use.
As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found
regular administration of cider vinegar and
honey at the onset of complaints such as the
common cold, sinusitis, asthmatic
attacks, hay fever, and childhood
diseases such as chicken pox and
measles, was accompanied by an
improvement in the condition with
symptoms either disappearing,
or the conditions were extremely
mild and soon over.
Apple cider vinegar contains
all the goodness of the apple in a
form that is readily accepted by
the body. Scientists have found
over 90 different substances in
ACV, among them 20 important
trace elements, minerals, essential
enzymes, a number of different
acids including malic acid, amino
acids and roughage in the form
of potash and pectin. A scientific
121 Skyhawk Road
study at the Shizuka University in Japan
has proven ACV to have potent antioxidant
benefits (It can destroy free radicals,
which are a major factor in ageing.) and
also the ACV can break down cholesterol
formations in the blood vessels.
ACV and H is a powerful tonic that
also promotes digestion, assimilation of
nutrients and elimination of waste, and
helps neutralize any toxic substances that
enter the body.
It is important to note not all cider
vinegar is made in the traditional way and
results are likely to prove disappointing
with these other vinegars.
