Huis Meyerton en Aftree-oord is a home for the aged at 32 Shippard Street, Meyerton, in the Vaal region of Gauteng. It is run by NG Welsyn (NG Welfare), the registered welfare non-profit company of the Dutch Reformed Church, under its Goudland synod. The home describes itself simply as accommodation for older people who can no longer live independently in the community. Its care unit provides full care services and nursing care, and as at 2023 was caring for around 95 residents. On the same premises there are self-catering flats for residents who remain independent, so the site combines a care home and a retirement village. Local news coverage in 2017 reported that the home had residents living with Alzheimer's. It has a garden and footpaths on the grounds.
Typical costs for old age homes in South Africa
We do not have Huis Meyerton’s own fees. As a general guide:
Private old age homes charge R6,000–R20,000/month. NGO and church-run homes are often subsidised and accept SASSA pension (currently R2,400/month). Government-subsidised beds are limited and often have waiting lists.
These are typical South African ranges for this type of care, not this home’s prices. Actual fees vary by room type, level of care, and area, and they change every year - always confirm current rates with the home.
