OASIS Care Centre offers five star care in a luxury hotel style environment

THE OASIS CARE CENTRE SPOKESPERSON THE Oasis Care Centre forms part of the Oasis Retirement Resort at Century City where the 4th block of sectional title apartments, Palme d’Or, is now 90% sold out some 8 months prior to completion. The Care Centre serves the needs of Oasis apartment residents as well as the general public.

The mission of Oasis Care Centre is to offer the best possible care and to ensure that each resident or patient enjoys his or her life to the fullest potential in a 5 star luxury environment. There are 4 distinct areas of care.

Physical Rehabilitation is offered predominantly to patients covered by Medical Aids for post-operative recovery and rehabilitation, such as after hip and knee replacement as well as for recovery and rehab from strokes and other trauma. Patients are treated by an in house attending doctor as well as a multi-disciplinary team of therapists covering a broad spectrum of physical rehabilitation.

Separate dining and lounge areas and a sun room have been set aside for Med Aid patients. There is a large reception and admin area that accommodates the Duty Sister, Patient Care Co-ordinator and Ward Secretary and to provide space for the admin functions of Drs and Therapists. The wellequipped physio room flows into a garden area. All patients have the use of single private rooms with a TV bouquet and en suite toilets.

The care of Long Term Frail Care residents and patients is co-ordinated from a separate nurse station conveniently located for easy access to all the rooms in that section. The residents and patients have the use of their own dedicated and beautifully appointed dining and lounge areas t hat l ead onto t he colourful central courtyard with attractive fountains.

The Alzheimer’s/Dementia wing is a self-contained unit on the 1st Floor and has as its focal point a magnificent lounge area that can accommodate up to 40 residents, as well as carers and friends and family.

The area is tastefully furnished and is further enhanced by a number of cluster light features in bold colours. These light features are enjoyed by the residents and are further evidence of the attention to detail in creating the most appropriate environment. There is a separate more intimate lounge area for family and visitors to spend time with loved ones. The dining area looks out of over the courtyard and fountains. All residents have private full suites or single rooms with en suite toilets.

Care Centre manager Lizzie Brynard- Brill says t hat “specialised Alzheimer’s/Dementia care enhances the quality of life and dignity of those who have been diagnosed with the condition. Oasis Care Centre was one of the first facilities in the Western Cape to obtain a formal Adult Mental Health License”.

The Care Centre offers modern attractive Assisted Living rooms and suites where residents are offered more independent life styles while enjoying plenty of daily back up and care by a dedicated team.

There is a regular program that includes outings to some of the most beautiful venues that Cape Town has to offer as well as movies, bingo, card games, exercise and more. The Assisted Living dining and lounge areas lead directly onto the courtyard and the lounge area has recently been attractively refurbished.

Residents and patients also enjoy the beautiful landscaped gardens, ponds and fountains that are a feature of the magnificent resort.
