Our goal was to give the public a taste of what The Livewell Group is about – namely, a specialised Dementia care facility providing Quality of Life to residents with world class care and innovation. Our motivation stems from a personal and heartfelt concern for the dignity and care of our elders. Over 70 guests enjoyed the Livewell hospitality and had the opportunity of walking through our luxurious refurbished manor house lounges and exclusive suites. Guests were entertained under a beautiful Jacaranda tree in our large tranquil and picturesque gardens.
We had the privilege of having Dr. Ryan Fuller as our guest speaker, a Psychiatrist that specialises in Memorycare, Psychogeriatrcian Assessment and Management of Memory & related Mental Health Disorders. Dr. Fuller, who developed the Memory Care Clinic, made it clear that due to the fragmentation of memory care services and lack of family structure in South Africa, our Livewell Village concept raises the standard for dementia related health care services, and encourages dignity and meaningfulness in the lives of our memory-care residents.
Our guests left inspired by the harmony of our typical peaceful country village where they could imagine our residents strolling in a safe place where everyone feels included, can remain independent for longer, enjoy a sense of choice of control over their lives and pursue their hobbies and interest in our lovely facility.
