Metlifecare St Andrew's

A central retirement village in the heart of Cambridge, set on grounds adjacent to the historic St Andrew's Church and the shade trees of Te Koutu Lake Reserve. The village is the most centrally located in Cambridge; shops, cafés, and services are a short walk from the gate, with a welcoming atmosphere.

Independent living for those who want a fully self-contained home with access to village facilities and the wider town, and on-site aged care for those who need rest home or hospital-level support. The care home is within the village grounds, so residents who move from independent living to care do not need to leave the community they have already built. Respite care is also available on site.

Care is available within the village rest home, hospital, and respite, so a move from independent living to the care home does not mean leaving St Andrew's or Cambridge. Residents who transition to care remain in familiar surroundings, close to neighbours, staff, and the routines they have already established. The care suites each have a private ensuite bathroom and a kitchenette with a fridge and tea-making facilities, so residents retain a genuine sense of their own space even as their level of support increases.

With staff who stay long enough to know residents well and a community that reflects the character of Cambridge itself. The care team takes a personal approach: residents' routines and preferences are understood and planned around, which is often what families notice most when they visit. For those coming from independent living, the social life is there when you want it and easy to step back from when you don't.
