Bridging the Gap: Homecarers and 1Health Partner to Bring Quality Elderly Home Care to New Zealanders
Premium Home Care Service for 1 Health Members

Finding reliable, prompt elderly home care in New Zealand is far more difficult than many families expect. The public system is under enormous strain—strict eligibility criteria, workforce shortages, and fragmented services have left many families with limited, inconsistent support. As New Zealand’s population ages, the challenges will only increase: by 2030, the sector faces a projected shortfall of nearly 10,000 aged care beds, with public and private resources stretched to breaking point.
Funding constraints and systemic workforce pressures mean public home care support is only accessible for those with the highest, most complex needs. For everyone else, hours are rationed, wait lists are long, and care options are rarely tailored or delivered on time. Clients and their families are left feeling isolated and overwhelmed, with few well-organised, high-quality alternatives offered in the private sector. The result? Too many older New Zealanders are struggling to cope at home without the help they deserve.

This is where Homecarers makes a crucial difference. As one of New Zealand’s most trusted private providers, Homecarers delivers:
