Caring Hands for Ageing Hearts

Date Published: 

The Emuseni Centre for Aged, offer shelter, care and food to the poor and vulnerable seniors of our community. We currently accommodate 55 residents and offer a secure and safe home, and care for the physical, psychosocial and spiritual needs. This type of specialised care requires a dedicated team of carers, nurses, a Matron, social worker and administrative support. Unfortunately due to insufficient support and grants-in-aid from government for social services such as ours, the responsibility of this type of service is taken on by philanthropic organisations such as ours. Our home is based in a rural area, and our people are under served. Living conditions can be appalling and the vision of Emuseni is to extend our services of mental and physical well-being, safety and security to more of our aged within our area of Edendale in KwaZulu Natal, South Africa. There is a large gap in funding concerning the aged, and the existence of our Home is just not negotiable. Our wish therefore is for support, financial or in-kind to our cause.
