Waterval Village
3rd str and Hendrik Potgieter str, Roodepoort - Florida Glen, Roodepoort, Gauteng
Waterval Retirement Village is a retirement village in Florida Glen, Roodepoort, on the corner of Hendrik Potgieter and 3rd Streets. It consists of cottages and flats, each with a separate lock-up garage, for independent living. The units are held through a share block company, no pets are allowed, and every resident must be medically evaluated by the Village Sister for approval. According to the village's website, the village has a care centre with a combined 31 bed capacity for temporary and permanent patients, managed by Unique Health, which provides residential care for geriatric frail conditions. Facilities include a community building with a dining room, hairdressing salon, library and lounge, an open air swimming pool, a bowling green, a minibus to shopping centres and 24-hour security. The website says a qualified nursing sister is available from Monday to Friday, that a medical practitioner has a room in the village, and that lunches are available at 13:00.
Typical costs for old age homes in South Africa
We do not have Waterval Village’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.
