What it costs
Standard room: capped at $1,591.31 a week in the Oxford area from 1 July 2026 (the Ministry of Health's maximum contribution), source.
The Oxford area is a rural area the Ministry caps separately from Waimakariri District ($1,547.35 a week). We placed this home in it by its town.
We matched this home to Waimakariri District by its town, Oxford. Health New Zealand tells each home the rate that applies to it, so ask the home to confirm.
The cap is what a standard room costs, whether you pay yourself or the Residential Care Subsidy pays, and it is the same for rest home, hospital and dementia care. Premium rooms and care suites cost more, and most homes do not publish those extra charges, so ask for them in writing. How care home prices work.
Some people qualify for the Residential Care Subsidy (government help with the cost of long-term care), which is means-tested and assessed by Work and Income. Who qualifies.
Certification and audits
No Ministry certification record matched
Every rest home and hospital must be certified by the Ministry of Health. We could not match this home to the Ministry's list of certified rest homes as we read it on 15 and 16 October 2026. Ask the home for its latest audit, or look it up on the Ministry's list of certified rest homes.
