In May 2004, Sasonah Lodge opened its doors in Lambton.<\/p>\n
The centre cares for Alzheimer\u2019s, Parkinson\u2019s, cancer and frail care patients, and offers around-the-clock nursing care, as well as home-based care.<\/p>
\u201cSasonah Lodge is a home away from home, where we try our utmost to eliminate the clinical type of environment and allow our patients to do as they would do in their own homes,\u201d explained manager Melanie Nunn.<\/p>\n
This year, for Mandela Day, a team from Life Rosearces Hospital visited the home to spend some time with the residents and serve them a hot meal.<\/p>
\u201cWe decided to get some of our staff from different departments out of our hospital and out into the community so they could see what is happening in Germiston.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think interacting with the residents of Sasonah Lodge has really been an eye-opener for some of them,\u201d said Karen Landsberg, marketing co-ordinator for Life Roseacres Hospital.<\/p>\n
