Choosing the right retirement living option is one of life's most important decisions, affecting not just your daily comfort but your long-term wellbeing and happiness. At Flower Foundation, we understand that every person's needs, preferences, and circumstances are unique. That's why we offer a comprehensive range of living options designed to support you through every stage of your retirement journey.

Independent senior living: freedom with peace of mind

Experience an independent lifestyle in beautiful and secure environments, where your external property and gardens are maintained for you, giving you the freedom to enjoy yourself and do what you love. Our independent living options are perfect for active seniors who want to maintain their autonomy whilst enjoying the benefits of a supportive community.

Choose from a variety of accommodation styles including modern cottages, comfortable flats, and spacious apartments, each designed with senior-friendly features and contemporary amenities. Your new home comes with the reassurance of 24-hour security, emergency response systems, and professional grounds maintenance, allowing you to focus on the activities and relationships that bring you joy.

Independent living at Flower Foundation means joining a vibrant community where social connections flourish naturally. Enjoy communal facilities, organised activities, and the companionship of like-minded neighbours whilst maintaining complete control over your daily routine and lifestyle choices.

Assisted living: support when you need it

Life's changing needs don't have to mean compromising on dignity or independence. Assisted living is for when support is required with activities of daily living like bathing, dressing, medicine administration, meals, laundry, and domestic services. Our assisted living services bridge the gap between independent living and intensive care, providing personalised support that adapts to your specific requirements.

Our professional care teams work closely with residents and their families to develop individualised care plans that respect personal preferences whilst ensuring safety and wellbeing. Whether you need occasional assistance or more regular support, our flexible approach means you receive exactly the right level of care without unnecessary restrictions on your independence.

Assisted living residents enjoy the same community benefits as independent residents, including social activities, meal options, and recreational facilities, with the added security of knowing professional help is always available when needed.

Frail care: comprehensive 24-hour support

For residents requiring more intensive care, our frail care facilities provide the highest standard of professional medical and personal support. When you or your loved one will need constant support, we provide the extra care needed. Frail care offers the benefit of 24-hour supervised care to residents who are no longer able to care for themselves.

Our frail care environments are specifically designed to meet the complex needs of residents with significant health challenges, mobility limitations, or cognitive concerns. Qualified nursing staff provide round-the-clock monitoring and care, whilst maintaining the warmth and dignity that every resident deserves.

Even within our most supportive care environment, we prioritise quality of life through meaningful activities, comfortable surroundings, and family involvement in care decisions.

Seamless transitions between care levels

One of Flower Foundation's greatest strengths lies in our integrated approach to retirement living. A few of our retirement homes are co-located with specialised care facilities which can provide assistance to residents who may need extra support. This means you can often transition between different levels of care without leaving your familiar community environment.

Couples with differing care needs can remain close to each other, and families know their loved ones can receive appropriate care as circumstances change, all within the same trusted organisation.

Nine unique villages across Johannesburg

Flower Foundation has nine retirement villages spread across Johannesburg, each with its own unique features and leisure and lifestyle options to choose from. This variety ensures you can find the perfect location that suits your preferences for neighbourhood character, proximity to family, access to medical services, and lifestyle amenities.

Each village maintains its own distinct personality whilst upholding Flower Foundation's consistent standards of care, security, and community spirit. Whether you prefer a quieter suburban setting or closer proximity to urban conveniences, we have options that will feel like home.

Making the right choice for you

Selecting the appropriate living option involves considering your current health status, anticipated future needs, financial circumstances, and personal preferences for community involvement and independence levels. Our experienced team provides comprehensive assessments and consultations to help you and your family make informed decisions about the most suitable accommodation and care options.

At Flower Foundation Retirement Homes, we don't just provide housing, we create communities where residents thrive, families feel confident, and every individual receives the respect, care, and support they deserve throughout their retirement years.
