We strive to enable every child to live their life to the fullest of their capabilities.
ABOUT US
Established in 2001, Lambano Sanctuary, an NPO with 4-star accreditation with the APCC, is situated in Germiston Gauteng.
For the past 23 years, we have been offering step-down/hospice care to paediatric and adolescent patients in the public setting, and therefore, we are well placed to put this experience into practice in the private domain. Holistic patient care is our core business. We ensure that the medical personnel, Social, Counsellor, Auxiliary and Rehabilitative departments work as a team and have the patient’s best interests at heart. To that end, patient, and family involvement in all decision-making regarding the patient’s care is key to our ethos.
we have completed the only dedicated private children’s SUB-ACUTE FACILITY in South Africa, 146 Langerman Drive, Kensington South, Johannesburg, Gauteng.
Vision and Management of the New Children’s Sub-Acute Facility

This service will be rendered to all children and adolescents who require further Medical, Physical and Aqua Rehabilitation Services.

Home-Based Care Consulting Services
Once the child has been discharged from our facility, they will be cared for by our Home-Based Care Facility. An interdisciplinary team comprised of a Nurse and/ or a Social Worker and Counsellor. Through this team we aim to:
- Safeguard that patients are not lost to follow up.
- Ensure that we have an early warning system in place should the patient not be doing well at home.
- Monitor if the patient is taking their meds and following up on their medical appointments.
These Home-Based Care visit costs can be claimed from Medical Aids, Insures, RAF and private.
Parents Accommodation
Temporary accommodation is provided to parents whilst they are being trained by our staff on how to care for their child at home before discharge.
Who qualifies for our services?
Some patients and their families require more care than others, but not always necessarily in a hospital setting. Once the patient has been discharged from the Hospital and requires further treatment, they will be admitted to our facility, until they are ready to be discharged to their homes.
