Assisted Living Facilities in South Africa

Assisted living provides a middle ground between independent living and full-time care. Residents maintain their independence while receiving targeted help with specific daily tasks.

Who is it for?

Seniors who are mostly independent but need help with certain tasks - medication reminders, light housekeeping, meal preparation, or mobility assistance. It suits those not yet needing 24-hour nursing care.

What to expect

A private unit (apartment or room) with personalised care plans. Staff assist with agreed-upon tasks while encouraging independence. Common areas for socialising, optional meal plans, and emergency call systems.

Typical costs

Assisted living typically costs R8,000–R18,000/month, depending on the level of assistance required and the location. Costs are lower than frail care but higher than independent retirement living.
