If you are planning to visit the Inpatient Unit (Te Rangimarie) and have answered YES to any of the above - DO NOT ENTER THE HOSPICE BUILDING. 

Please ring us on 06 753 7830 and staff can assist you in making a decision as to whether it is safe to visit in the interest of protecting our patients, staff and volunteers.

Visitors who are well, are very welcome to visit patients at Te Rangimarie Hospice - please use sanitiser on entry and departure.
