We have around 35 staff, with a very low turnover rate, meaning many of our team have been with us for years and know their roles well. They take great pride in the care they deliver and in the reputation of Cook St, working together to ensure residents receive consistent, compassionate support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We provide care for up to 30 residents in a comfortable, homely setting. Our approach focuses on respecting each individual while supporting their wellbeing, dignity, and independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Centrally located in Palmerston North, we are easily accessible for families and visitors. Demand for our services is high, so we encourage you to ring or call in to discuss your specific requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brian Momongan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Facility Manager<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I initially took up nursing to take better care of my grandfather. Unfortunately he passed away on my second year of study. I persevered and earned my Bachelor’s degree back in 2011 in the Philippines. I then received my registration on the same year and did about a year and a half of volunteer work as a medical-surgical nurse at one of the local hospitals. Later on I was accepted to a tertiary hospital and worked in the Emergency Department for a couple of years. I proceeded to take up the Competency Assessment Programme for Overseas Registered Nurses late 2016 in UCOL and received my registration here in New Zealand. Wanting to return to my initial calling for Aged Care, I applied to Cook Street Nursing Care Centre and have been working here since. I remain passionate in caring for the elderly and have made great friendships with them. I look forward to continuing my work in trying to improve their quality of life, even just by a little.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I am dedicated to creating a home where every resident and wh\u0101nau feels valued, understood, and supported through compassionate, person-centred nursing.
I hold a postgraduate certificate in nursing and have thirteen years of experience in elderly care, complemented by the Advanced Care Palliative Pilot Program conducted by Arohanui Hospice. I bring my clinical knowledge and my heart to Cook Street Nursing Care Centre where we value and honour the unique qualities of every elderly resident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
