COMPANY BACKGROUNDER

Radius Residential Care Ltd was established in 2003 in response to New Zealand’s growing demand for aged care and specialist health care services.

Formerly a subsidiary company of Radius Health Group (which includes Radius Pharmacy and Radius Medical brands), Radius Residential Care Ltd underwent a major shareholding buyout in April 2010 when the Company was restored to kiwi ownership from Radius Health Group’s foreign investors. The Company is now headed by Chief Executive Brien Cree; one of Auckland’s leading rest home and hospital property consultants with more than 20 years experience in the industry. Brien is one of three company directors and the majority shareholder in the business. Other private individuals also share a vested interest and minority shareholding in the Company.

Since its inception seven years ago, Radius Residential Care Ltd has grown from one rest home to now include 21 rest home and hospital facilities nationwide. Radius Residential also owns and operates a retirement village in Ohaupo.

There are more than 1400 beds available at Radius aged care facilities throughout New Zealand making Radius Residential Care New Zealand’s fourth largest provider of aged care services. Residents are cared for by qualified, compassionate caregivers, and registered nursing staff who provide a variety of specialised health care services.

Radius takes an innovative approach to health care that seeks to maintain and enhance the well-being, dignity and independence of both young and old residents.
Emphasis is placed on providing a high level of quality care that seeks to exceed the residents needs and expectations and to create a homely atmosphere and enhanced quality of life for people whose physical capacity has diminished.
