100 years of caring

Who We Are ...

The Elizabeth Knox Home and Hospital is a Charitable Trust located at 10 Ranfurly Road, Epsom, Auckland.

 The Trust was established 100 years ago when Mrs Elizabeth Knox died leaving an extremely generous bequest to establish and operate a hospital to care for those in need.

 The current facility has 136 beds and provides care across the age continuum - having a long history of providing high quality care for young physically disabled and elders.

 Significant planning is underway for redevelopment of the existing facilities on the current site.

 A Board of Trustees is responsible for the governance of the Trust with day-to-day operation of services being managed by the professional team.

Eden Alternative & Accreditation

In May we had both the Certification (mandatory)and Accreditation (voluntary)audits. In August we were notified that we had achieved both for the maximum period of 3 years. We are one of only four long term care facilities to have achieved QHNZ Accreditation. This is evidence of the Knox commitment to quality and service development. The commencement of our "Eden Alternative" journey is our principal quality focus, enabling meaningful culture change through training and dedication to creating a life worth living for those in our care. The Eden Alternative is based on the work of Dr William Thomas and is based on the core belief that ageing should be a continued stage of development and growth, rather than a period of decline.
