The lodge is a care facility accommodating patients with Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s or any person requiring frail or full time care. The residents house has been renovated and modified to accommodate 25 residents in which our residents are encouraged to roam freely and continue with normal activities as far as possible. We are staffed by a nursing sister, full time care workers and an on-site chef. We have a resident doctor calling on our residents, a monthly visit by a hairdresser and a podiatrist. Sasonah Lodge is contracted to a medical response company called Excalmed (see certificate) giving us 24 hour medical response back up. Sasonah Lodge is also contracted to a security response company called Germiston Patrols giving us 24 hour armed response back up. The lodge offers full time residence, a day care facility and holiday or weekend care.
