Staff at rest homes run by Oceania Healthcare are concerned for their ability to provide for their families when Oceania has announced that the hours of some rostered workers are to be cut by 25% due to restructuring.

Staff are concerned that these changes will compromise the safety of the residents, but Oceania has rejected these claims. Oceania Healthcare have given no indication of how many workers are going to be affected by the restructuring.

Oceania Healthcare facilities in Upper Hutt include the Elderslea Care Centre and Village, and the Heretaunga Care Centre.
