Home Based Support Services

Home Based Support Services

Home Based Support Services (HBSS) are delivered by Enliven, which is is one of Presbyterian Support Northern's health and disability services. The service provides older people with restorative, client-centred, responsive support that allows clients to remain in their own homes.

A key focus of HBSS support is household management for tasks such as preparing meals, washing, drying and folding clothes, cleaning, vacuuming and tidying up. HBSS also supports clients with personal care, eating and drinking, showering, dressing getting up in the morning and getting ready for bed.

Clients are able to complete an evaluation survey each year and provide feedback on the services they receive from Enliven. This report summarises some of the key findings from the 2020 evaluation survey. It covers the Auckland, Counties Manukau, Hamilton, Rotorua and Taupo areas.
