Kia ora, I’m Paul.
When it comes to healthcare, the right staff at the right time can make all the difference. That’s why more providers across New Zealand are turning to flexible staffing partners to support their services. One name that keeps coming up in the sector is Staffplus.
In this post, I’ll share why Staffplus is becoming the go-to healthcare staffing partner for providers across the country—from aged care homes and supported living facilities to mental health services and community-based programmes. We’ll look at what sets Staffplus apart, how they support both clients and staff, and why they’re trusted to deliver when it matters most.
Built on Values That Guide Every Decision
Staffplus isn’t just a staffing agency—it’s a values-led organisation. Every decision is grounded in key principles:
Manaakitanga (respect and care)
Pono (integrity and trust)
Kotahitanga (working together as one)
Whakawhirinaki (reliability)
These values shape how they treat clients, staff, and the people they support. It’s not just about filling shifts—it’s about building relationships that last. That’s why so many providers describe Staffplus as an extension of their own team, not just a service.
The team understands that care isn’t just a task. It’s personal, emotional, and often urgent. Their approach reflects this, from how they select carers to how they respond to urgent requests.
Available 24/7, 365 Days a Year
In healthcare, needs don’t stop at 5pm or on weekends. Emergencies happen, rosters fall short, and services need backup fast. Staffplus offers true round-the-clock support—every day of the year. Whether it's a late-night request or a long weekend crisis, their coordination team is always on hand to help.
Providers across New Zealand rely on this level of responsiveness. It's not just about sending someone—it's about sending the right person, at the right time, with the right skills. This speed and reliability have made Staffplus a lifeline for many care facilities and in-home support services.
A Tailored, Strengths-Based Approach
Staffplus uses a strengths-based matching system, meaning they don’t just send the next available person. They take the time to match clients with carers who have the right experience, personality, and approach. This leads to better outcomes and more consistent care.
Whether a provider needs help in aged care, dementia support, mental health, or disability services, Staffplus offers qualified professionals who understand the unique demands of each setting. And because they offer support for both short-term shifts and long-term placements, their solutions are flexible and scalable.
Many providers also appreciate the calm, consistent presence that Staffplus workers bring to the job. They’re trained, professional, and ready to hit the ground running.
Supporting Their People Behind the Scenes
One reason Staffplus has built such a strong reputation is the way they treat their staff. Caregivers, support workers, nurses, and coordinators all receive continuous support, development opportunities, and fair working conditions.
By looking after their workforce, Staffplus ensures that the people they send out to clients are not only skilled—but also motivated, well-prepared, and proud to do their job. That’s good for the workers, the clients, and the people receiving care.
They also invest in ongoing communication. Whether it's feedback from clients or staff, the team listens, learns, and adjusts quickly. That responsiveness keeps things running smoothly even in high-pressure situations.
Who Staffplus Supports
Staffplus works across a wide range of healthcare sectors, including:
Aged care – temporary and long-term support for rest homes and in-home care
Mental health – non-clinical daily support and behavioural assistance
