Herfsland Home for the Aged

Herfsland was honoured to welcome the learners of Maranatha Christian School during their school holiday. 💛

As part of their curriculum, the learners spent time doing meaningful community work, from helping in the dining room and laundry, to cleaning wheelchairs, fixing chairs and even assisting with a new walkway for our dementia residents.

Their kindness, energy, and willingness to help made a lasting impression on both staff and residents alike.

Thank you for choosing to spend your time with us. We truly enjoyed your company and we hope to see you again soon!

💖 A Heartfelt Thank You.

We received this loving review from the family of one of our residents, and we are truly touched.

"Our sincere gratitude and appreciation for the excellent care and professional conduct that you demonstrated during a recent health incident involving my mother.

Your quick and efficient response ensured that my mother received immediate attention to limit potential complications. It was truly reassuring to witness the level of preparedness, expertise, and empathy with which you handled this critical situation. Your response time was remarkable and undoubtedly made a significant difference in my mother’s outcome.

In addition to your technical skills, your calm and composed demeanour during the event was a source of comfort for everyone involved. The way you worked seamlessly as a team reflects the dedication and passion you bring to your work. It is clear that the residents of Herfsland are in the best possible hands.

Our sincere thanks to all the nurses and caregivers, especially Sister Maryna and Sister Tessa. Your work goes beyond just medical care; it touches the lives of residents and their families in a deeply meaningful way.

Thank you very much for your exceptional service. Your dedication is inspiring, and your compassion is genuinely appreciated.” - Johan and Esther

When to Consider Herfsland 🍁

As our parents age, daily tasks can become overwhelming, health concerns increase, and safety becomes a growing worry. This is often when families begin to consider the support of a care home like Herfsland.

Whether after a medical event or gradual changes in independence, signs like missed meals, difficulty managing medication or struggles with hygiene signal the need for extra care.

Starting the conversation early gives families time to explore options together. Herfsland offers more than just care, we offer a warm, welcoming environment where your loved one can feel at home.

We invite you to visit, meet our team and experience the difference for yourself.

The Many Roles of the Magnolia Room

At Herfsland, our Magnolia room plays a special role in the journey of care.

For some, it’s a space for close monitoring, where our nursing team and doctor can offer more focused attention when someone isn’t feeling well.
For others, it’s a place to regain strength and rebuild confidence under caring supervision after illness or a hospital stay.

Sometimes it’s the first stop after a medical procedure, a calm space where residents can settle in, and we can ensure medications are working as prescribed.
And for those tender moments when extra love and comfort are needed most, the Magnolia room becomes a sanctuary of rest and dignity.

It’s also a family-friendly space, where loved ones are welcome to sit, talk, hold hands, and share precious memories. Together, our families, nursing staff and doctors form a strong circle of support to provide the very best care, every step of the way.
