Wilson Centre
The Wilson Centre for children is a child disability service of Waitemata DHB. The Wilson Centre provides family-centred rehabilitation services for children aged 0-16 years (or while still at school) with neurological or orthopaedic problems. Rehabilitation programmes are tailored to meet the individual needs of the child or young person, and may include inpatient, day patient or outpatient options. Rehabilitation programmes may involve nurses, occupational therapists, speech language therapists, play specialists, social workers, clinical neuropsychologists, and a Maori Liaison Advisor. Facilities include gardens, purpose built playground, hydrotherapy pool, rehabilitation school classroom, and parent accommodation.
The Wilson Centre also offers free respite services for families of children aged 0-16 years with high support needs. Children are cared for in a safe, professional and fun environment while families take time out to recharge their batteries. Planned stays may include day stays, overnight weekdays, weekends and school holidays. 24 hour care is provided by nurses and healthcare assistants.
