The company is called Home Help NZ and was formerly trading as Home Instead Senior Care in Auckland. This association ceased in September 2013. However, this change does not mean any changes for you the client or you the Caregiver. All the same people are doing all the same things for you from our reception area through to our accounting function – including me (Maggie) the owner – fronting the bu
siness since the day I purchased it in mid 2010! We are a company of women! All of us (in the office anyway) middle aged, have children, parents, grandparents and an innate understanding of what it’s like to cope with several balls in the air at any one time! We share a good sense of humour and a work ethic which would leave some for dead! We laugh a lot in our office – sometimes at the silliest of things. We enjoy what we do. The settling in of a new client with her/his Caregiver is a wondrous thing to see – very gratifying and satisfying. I am the owner. Maggie is my name - a Mainlander originally from Dunedin. I come from a varied background of biomedical technology, through sales to management in medical oriented companies (for the most part) and finally, having dealt with the death of a beloved husband far too young a few years ago, sought an industry in which I could purchase a business which would allow me to ‘give something back’. I enjoy what I do. I find it distressing when a loved client dies but share the joys of injured/sick people returning to health and full function with our help! We also enjoy being able to provide lonely folk with companionship and various kinds of help in their own homes.Very rewarding indeed!
