Helping each other through COVID-19

Ministry of Health

With more cases of COVID-19 in the community, it’s possible you and your whānau will be exposed to the virus. Most fully vaccinated people, who get exposed, are likely to have a mild to moderate illness and will fully recover at home.

In case you or someone in your house tests positive and needs to isolate, have food, medications and supplies available. Make a plan with neighbours, friends or whānau to support each other.

If you need more help to manage at home, you can also access a COVID-19 welfare line on 0800 512 337

Tony and June ‘lucky’ to be together in their serviced apartment

Princess Alexandra Retirement Village

Tony and June feel like the luckiest people living in a Ryman village.

The couple have lived in their large, sunny serviced apartment for four years now and still can’t quite believe what a good score it was.

“It was the best thing we’ve done,” says June. “It’s north facing, so it gets lots of light, and it’s a good size, so I’ve got room for my card-making supplies.”
