Meet John, our new Care Manager

Oceania

For Oceania, it’s not just about building bricks and mortar. It’s about building a sense of community.

St Johns Wood’s new Care Manager, John McNaughton, agrees. “My goal is to deliver an experience at the highest-level. To not only meet the residents’ requirements, but to exceed them - to be offering the care we would want if it were us.”

For John, the stunning Taupǒ location is a bonus. “Taupǒ has always held a special connection for me. It’s where I was born and raised, and it’s fantastic to be able to return.”

When asked what his vision is for St Johns Wood, John leaves no doubt that every resident is in safe hands. “It’s about exclusively tailoring for the needs of each resident, being respectful, and putting the resident at the forefront of all we do. Having the right team with the right attitude and providing them the tools to be able to do their jobs well and create happy residents who feel appreciated.”
