Rānui House is a home away from home for families who travel to Christchurch for life-saving medical treatment.
Canterbury
For over 31 years the Bone Marrow Cancer Trust has owned and managed Rānui House - our Mission is to provide a home away from home for families who travel to Christchurch for life-saving medical treatment - we serve patients and families from across New Zealand, it doesn’t matter how old you are or what kind of treatment you’re going through - everyone is welcome at Rānui House.
From Whangārei in the north to Stewart Island in the South, seriously ill New Zealanders drive or fly hundreds of kilometres to Christchurch for treatments such as chemotherapy, bone marrow transplants, heart surgery, high-risk pregnancies, neonatal care, kidney transplants, dialysis, general surgery and a host of other serious illnesses.
Medical services for these conditions are not available in their cities or rural communities. They leave their whānau, friends, farms, workplaces, and communities for days, weeks, and even months to undergo treatment at Christchurch Hospital.
We know how important it is to keep patients and their families together during what is often an incredibly stressful time. Rānui House is located opposite Christchurch Hospital and beautiful Hagley Park - we provide families an apartment with comfy beds, ample living spaces including a kitchen and laundry just like you would have at home, along with an onsite carpark and generous communal spaces. Our team is on hand to take care of the practical things giving families the time and space to focus on their treatment.
Rānui House is a home away from home for patients and their whānau who need to travel to Christchurch for life-saving medical treatment.
Owned and managed by the Bone Marrow Cancer Trust, Ranui House’s 26 apartments opposite Christchurch Hospital provide a warm, welcoming space so families can stay close. We are here because we know that when families are together, they heal faster.
It doesn’t matter how old you are or what kind of treatment you’re going through - everyone is welcome at Ranui House.
