The Hibiscus Coast has had a reputation in the past of being a place to head to and enjoy your retirement. Whilst this is not the case so much nowadays, it doesn't detract from the fact that it really is a retirees slice of paradise and there are locals who can help make your retirement great to enjoy up here!
If you are looking for a retirement home/village then there is an abundance of choices on the Coast. Some with full care facilities, some designed as separate houses or villas within a community and pretty much all offering plenty of things to do and good company so you never need feel alone. Check out our Hibiscus Coast retirement home/village options.
Whilst it may sound a little gloomy, one service you will want to ensure can look after you locally it is a funeral director and funeral home and we have a number here on the Coast including the caring team at Forrest Funeral Services with branches in both Orewa and Browns Bay. These are the people you shouldn't just turn to when you need them but in your retirement you can help your loved ones be prepared for when the time comes by pre-planning your funeral and even pre-paying expenses and recording your own personal funeral choices to ease the financial burden on those you leave behind. A little bit of planning can mean a lot at the end of the day.
If you need medical or health care on the Coast there are also services to suit all needs including hearing services such as the personalised and caring services offered by Hear Again. Family run and operated they offer all hearing services including in-home hearing tests and all accessories etc for hearing aids.
Whether you are looking for an Optician, Dentist, Chiropractor, Doctor/Medical Centre or more you can find a wide selection of services in our Health, Beauty, Medical and Wellbeing directory section.
