Typical costs for disability residential facilities in South Africa

We do not have Zanele Mbeki Frail Care Centre’s own fees. As a general guide:

Costs range from SASSA disability grant-funded beds (the disability grant is R2,400/month in 2026) in subsidised NGO facilities to roughly R8,000–R15,000/month in private facilities. In a state-contracted facility the grant is reduced to 25% (about R600/month) from the fourth month, with the subsidy covering the rest. Government-funded beds have long 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.
