Subsidies
If you need long-term residential care in a rest home or
hospital, you may be able to get a Residential Care
Subsidy from the Ministry of Health.
This subsidy helps with the cost of care and is paid
directly to the rest home or hospital.
Work and Income is responsible for assessing the income
of those who apply for the Residential Care Subsidy. This is
called a financial means assessment.
The Ministry of Health assesses all other aspects of
eligibility, including the start date of the subsidy
payments.
You’ll need to get in touch with a needs assessor in your
area. For contact details: • visit
www.health.govt.nz and search on key words “long term
residential care” • call the health Seniorline on
0800 725 463
Our rate per day for private payers is $152.93 for a
standard room. This rate applies to respite, rest home or
hospital level care. The MOH will pay us an extra top up to
cover the extra care fees for hospital level care. This rate
of $152.93 is set by the Ministry of Health and reviewed
annually on the 1st July.
We send out an invoice around the middle of each
month for any care fees and expenses and this can either
be paid online or by cheque by the end of the month.
Audits
We are audited by our auditing agency Health Audit New
Zealand every 18 months. Every second audit is an
unannounced audit. These audits are forwarded to our
portfolio manager at the Waikato DHB and also to
Certification NZ. A certificate is then issued and placed in
the foyer of the rest home.
We are audited by Work Safe New Zealand. The last
time we were audited we received a 1 rating which is
the highest rating able to be obtained.
Fire Safety
For the security and safety of residents the rest home is
designed as a series of fire cells designed to slow down the
progress of any fire. In event of fire, fire safety doors
automatically close to contain the fire. The home is
connected directly to the Fire Brigade by an automatic
alarm system. A full sprinkler and smoke alarm system
operates throughout the home. Emergency lighting covers
all halls, living areas, bedrooms, toilets, bathrooms and exit
ways, and is turned on automatically should there be a
power failure at any time.
The call bell system also continues to operate during any
power failure.
Personal furniture and possessions
We encourage residents to bring favourite items of furniture,
e.g. own chair, portable TV, phone etc to help make their
rooms more personal. Pictures, photographs, own bedspread
and items from home also make the resident’s environment
more homelike.
Valuables and Insurance
Residents are encouraged to keep money and valuables to a
minimum. These can be locked away for safe keeping by
management if desired but available on a daily basis if
needed. Residents are responsible for safe custody of their
valuables and we feel it is essential that they be covered by
insurance. Dentures and spectacles are to be engraved, or
otherwise identified. Money can be held at the office.
Telephones
Residents are welcome to install their own personal phone
line in their bedroom. There is a phone available for residents
to use and we do have unlimited national toll and cell phone
calls at no cost.

Smoking Policy Brylyn Residential Care has a smoke-free policy. From the
1st January 2012 smoking laws have changed. The
‘Ministry of Health’ has directed that no one can smoke on
the rest home premises. Smoking will therefore have to be
outside the rest home.
Personal Laundry Our on-site laundry will launder personal clothing. This is
done on a daily basis and generally all washing is returned
the same day unless it requires ironing or hand washing. We
try to take the utmost care with woolen articles but prefer
that relatives launder them to avoid any damage. This
includes any woolen under lays.
Residential Care
www.brylynresthome.co.nz
Clothing It is of the utmost importance that all belongings are
clearly labelled. It is preferred that clothes are
labelled with sew on labels, alternatively a
permanent marker may be used. Please ask staff at
the rest home for the use of a permanent marker if
needed.
Medication Medical care for each resident is monitored daily by
the Nurse Manager in consultation with G.P’s.
Medication is dispensed from Medico packs which are
sealed by the pharmacist with the correct medication
for each individual for each mealtime.
Podiatrist A podiatrist visits in approximately six week intervals
to attend to foot problems. This is paid for by
resident/family using their petty cash held at
Reception.
Doctors The home has an arrangement for the services of a Doctor
and a Nurse Practitioner from Residential Eldercare
Services Ltd. Residents may avail themselves of this service
at no cost or may seek the services of their own doctor. If
the resident chooses to be seen by another doctor,
however, any excess over the Brylyn doctor charges will
need to be met by the resident. The doctor attends every
Friday morning and the Nurse Practitioner on Tuesdays.
Medical records are retained on site at Brylyn Residential
Care.
