Admission Information

Life Path Health’s admission co-ordinators at each clinic understand the concerns and challenges of making arrangements for mental health in-patient treatment. We listen to your needs and do our best to provide you with the highest quality of service.  The admission co-ordinators will assist you on arrival with medical aid queries, accommodation concerns and catering issues.

 

Packing for your stay

Life Path Health has designed each clinic to create a homely (non-institutional) atmosphere where patients wear casual wear during the day instead of pajamas.  The following items should be brought with the patient’s admission: 

Please leave all other valuables such as cellular phones, weapons and jewelry at home.

Bedding and towels are provided.

 

Requirements on admission

    The standard procedure if you have a medical aid is for you to contact your medical aid for an authorisation number prior to admission. If you are uncertain about this procedure we will assist you. Confirm with your medical aid if additional services such as occupational therapy and physiotherapy are covered with admission.
  2. Medical Aid Membership Card
  3. Your identity document

Length of stay in the clinic

Your length of stay will be influenced by the following factors:

Your vehicle
You are permitted to park your vehicle at YOUR OWN RISK on the designated parking area. However, during admission you may not drive or leave the clinic in your own vehicle.

 

Accommodation & Catering

The Clinics offer accommodation with an upmarket ambience and each en-suite bedroom has a digital satellite TV, air-conditioning and lockable cupboards.

There are separate lounges for relaxation, one for smokers and one for non-smokers.  All our clinics have a garden for relaxation, and some even provide a gymnasium for the patients’ convenience. 

Patients receive balanced meals according to a dietician’s recommendation.  The catering makes provision for special dietary needs. All the meals are served in a dining room.
