Goeiemiddag. Eks diep ontsteld oor 1 van julle susters wat aan julle verbonde is. Die skelname wat sy gebruik, kom neer op rassisme en wil so spoedig moontlik weet waarheen om te gaan met haar optrede om dit te rapporteer asb.

The VISION of Bethesda is to provide holistic, compassionate & sustainable care that improves quality of life. FACTS * FACTS * FACTS

Bethesda was established in 2000.

We are NPO (nr: 020-521-NPO) and a Section 18 (A) company. We have a 5 -accreditation from Council of Health Services Accreditation of SA (COHSASA) for Patient Care and Governance. We care for about 500 patients on a daily basis. More than 150 of these patients are children. More than 40% of our patients (adults and children) have HIV/AIDS. The other 55% of our patients have mostly cancer, oth

er life-limiting illnesses or diseases of lifestyle. We deliver more than 2 000 interventions to these patients per month. We have a Holistic approach: medical, rehabilitation, developmental, spiritual, psycho-social and family support. We have 3 MAIN divisions: Intermediate Care Facility (ICF); Home Based Care (HBC); Child and Youth Care centre (CYCC). The ICF has 36 beds (including 8 children’s beds) and delivers in-patient Palliative-, Sub-acute- and Rehabilitation/Restorative care. The HBC visits the patients in their own homes and delivers De-hospitalized, Palliative- and Comprehensive care. The CYCC delivers Developmental- and Rehabilitative services to 45 children legally placed in our residential care. Our Support Service divisions include a Kitchen, Laundry, Maintenance, Transport, Security and Admin. We have a Wheelchair repair workshop that repair and service government-issued wheelchairs. We have a Development/Early Intervention Program for 18month- to 6yr-olds that is called the Wikkelwurms. Additional Programs managed by Bethesda includes Adherence Support and Integrated School Health (NHI). We have 110 staff members. We have a Board of Directors that oversees the organization, governance, decisions and planning. The CEO and a Management committee are responsible for the day-to-day operational aspects. We care for our patients with-out cost to the patient or their families. Our total operational costs are more than R 9, 2 million per year. Even though we do receive some funding from the government, we cannot survive on that alone. We have an active Fundraising committee and Projects Department; and we raise funds/donations from the general public, corporate donors and other funding partners. We have a Comprehensive Needs List that indicates urgent needs per division and thus guides Fundraising and Proposed Projects. We have a Charity Shop on the premises that sells secondhand-goods and also provides some additional income. We encourage people to remember Bethesda in their wills. “The vision of BETHESDA is to provide holistic, compassionate and sustainable care that improves quality of life.”

The CYCC focuses on care for 24 children legally placed in our Residential care. Various Rehabilitation and Development programs are presented, including: Emotional, Psycho-Social care, Counselling, Behavior Modification, Independent Living, ECD, Educational Assistance and development. Milestone Development Program
This Program can accommodate 20 children & includes the 3 main divisions of Bethesda. Services are for children ages 18 months – 6 years with developmental delays due to various reasons such as illness/disease, neglect, lack of stimulation etc. with main focus also being on children infected or affected by HIV/AIDS/TB. The children are divided into 4 groups according to their Developmental age and appropriate Stimulation- and Development Activities are presented to them. Throughout Bethesda we believe in a Holistic Care approach, therefore all clients are cared for HOLISTICALLY:
Medical, Rehabilitative, Developmental, Spiritual, Psycho-social and Family support. Our Support Services include a Kitchen & Laundry (Outsourced), Maintenance, Transport, Security & Admin. The care for our patients is with-out cost to the patients or their families. Our total operational costs are more than R 12,070 million per year.
