Rest Home residents and family were able to finish the day inspecting the new build and were noticeably impressed by spacious rooms including four lounges along with wireless internet and heated entrance ramp.

Instead of encouraging people to be overly cautious during the silly season, we wanted to share our injury prevention tips in a more interesting way.
Based on the traditional Christmas song we all know and love, we created a video series featuring 12 weird and not so wonderful injuries we saw from last Christmas, and tips on how to avoid them!
Give our 12 Days of ACC Christmas video series a watch. From everyone at ACC we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.

The Southern District Health Board has issued a hygiene warning after two "large" gastrointestinal illness outbreaks were reported in the region over the past two weeks.
Norovirus is highly-infectious and spread easily from person to person.
"With the start of the holiday period we ask everyone to be thorough with all personal hygiene, safe food preparation, and cooking," Poore said.
"Although the acute illness is generally over within 24 to 36 hours, people with norovirus are infectious for at least three days after the symptoms stop and on some occasions for up to two weeks."
The number of cases was in the mid-20s and no-one had been hospitalised. Read more here
