Old Age Home

De Meerpaal is a retirement village in Willow Glen, Pretoria, established on 1 May 1972 for Dutch, Afrikaans and English-speaking seniors. It operates within the Stichting Nederlands Bejaardecentrum, which is registered as a non-profit public welfare organisation. According to the home's website, the village has 60 rental homes, 38 single-story cottages and 16 apartments, a total of 114 units, offered as life-right units for sale, rental units, or units combined with home care. Independent residents can use the transport to shops, the lapa, mini-golf and heated swimming pool. The village also has a nursing care centre where trained staff provide 24-hour care, with three daily meals and snacks, a weekly laundry service, and medication administration and wound care by the nursing staff. Care centre residents have their own room with a bathroom.

Typical costs for old age homes in South Africa

We do not have Stichting Nederlands Bejaarden Centrum De Meerpaal’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.
