Hope House is a home for adults with schizophrenia at 32 Peak Drive, Pinelands, Cape Town, run by the Hope House Trust, a registered non-profit organisation. It was founded in 2001 and the first residents moved in during July 2002. According to the home's website, it offers supervised living and 24 hour care, and there are two homes on the property: the old family home accommodates 4 residents and a cottage accommodates a further 4 residents plus the house mother. The property has a large garden. Residents are encouraged to take part in the daily chores of running the house and tending to the garden, and a skills therapist helps them with handcrafts and other occupational therapy. The website says non-compliance with prescribed medication requirements and any form of substance abuse are not accepted. The website notes that applicants should be 35 years of age or younger, and an application form can be downloaded from it.
Typical costs for psychiatric & special needs facilities in South Africa
We do not have Hope House Trust’s own fees. As a general guide:
Government psychiatric facilities are free for those who qualify. Private facilities charge R8,000–R25,000/month. Medical aid may cover some costs depending on the diagnosis and benefit plan.
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.
