Join the Mowana family: what we have available now!

At Mowana, we have a number of facilities offering different kinds of living and care.

This is dynamic, but we hope the following is a helpful indication of what is available now. Please contact our Housing Coordinator, Shareè Horner on homes@mowana.org or 033 345 4711, if you are interested in any of these options.

Residential and Assisted Living on a Rental Basis: Villa Assumpta
Villa Assumpta was run by the Oakford Congregation of Dominican Sisters for many years. Whilst it is now managed by PADCA, the ethos of care and warmth created by the Sisters have continued. Villa Siena, adjacent to Villa Assumpta, is still home to Sisters who have retired from active ministry, and who attend regular services in the chapel and visit the residents.
Residential living is R9 500 per person per month and this includes one meal a day. You can choose to add caring services and additional meals as required. Assisted Living is available from R15 000 per person including three meals a day.
Fully Supported Living on a Rental Basis: Greendale Care Centre

“The staff are friendly and happy, nothing is too much trouble. The food is unreal, they cook beautifully. It is a real pleasure living here!” - Greendale Care Centre Resident

Caring for yourself and your home can become overwhelming. Managing medications, meals and more whilst keeping in contact with friends and family can be too much. Fully supported living gives you the care you need so you can release that tension and rest assured you are safe. This allows you to get the most out of each day.

At Greendale Care Centre you are invited to make your space your home, you can personalise your room and bring your creature comforts. The gardens and lounges are great spaces in which to enjoy nature and community. We encourage you to pursue your interests, have family and friends to visit and go on outings. We tailor programmes and activities according to each person's interests to help promote their independence and support their physical and cognitive abilities while enjoying their passions and hobbies.

With a nursing team around the clock, 24/7 in-room camera monitoring and on-site security, you can relax knowing you are in good hands no matter the kind or level of support you need. Our catering team ensures all your meals are tasty but nutritionally balanced.

The monthly rental for our fully supported living is R20 200 for a single room and R18 470 each for a double room sharing.
