A Tauranga retirement village has been closed to visitors after a suspected norovirus outbreak.
Bethlehem Views, a 68-room rest home and hospital, is closed to visitors and contractors while it deals with the suspected outbreak.
A management spokesman said Public Health had advised the village to not allow visitors or contractors on the property.
"We are taking all measures possible to prevent the spread of infection and maintain the health and well-being of our residents," he said.
"All residents are being isolated in the hope this will be brought to a swift conclusion. We understand this is inconvenient for residents, families and friends and we appreciate their co-operation and patience to manage this situation."
