Another rest home has been assigned a temporary manager due to safety problems.
On Wednesday, the Canterbury District Health Board appointed a temporary manager to the Villa Gardens Home & Hospital in Christchurch to investigate claims of sub-standard elderly care.
The Mid-Central District Health Board revealed on Thursday it appointed a temporary manager to the Ranfurly Manor resthome in Feilding last Monday.
DHB general manager of funding and planning Mike Grant says safety concerns were first reported in June by a consultant.
He says Ranfurly Manor does not have enough registered nurses to ensure an adequate level of care, but it is not facing closure at this stage.
