Picturesque retirement neighbourhood in the centre of Riverfields
Considering a move to Riverfields will put you in a front row seat to a well-designed, sustainable precinct. Residents will have easy access to Riverfields’ wealth of lifestyle facilities. Shopping at the Harvest Centre shopping mall and attending community events at the lifestyle centre is an easy trip from home.
Quick transport routes and designated pedestrian pavements provide easy walking paths. Retirees can also take advantage of the jet setting lifestyle with OR Tambo International Airport just a 15-minute drive away.
Dynamic outdoor lifestyle in nature
Within the precinct, we have designed landscaped parks and pathways. Being outside in nature has a beneficial effect on our overall health and wellness. Riverfields is a secure managed precinct with a management association that looks after the roads and security for our community. Retirees will be able to go for an evening jog or a brisk morning walk on our secure pathways.
We aim to promote a secure neighbourhood for peace of mind. Whether you are walking to church or driving to view the wetlands, our security patrol regularly in clearly visible vehicles.
Retirement at the forefront of innovation
Riverfields is constantly innovating to provide residential, commercial and business opportunities for our dynamic community. As our services grow, we have undertaken to provide various sectional title housing opportunities. Riverfields’ retirement village is aimed to cater for the needs of retirees looking for an affordable and secure place to live.
Growing our residential community
Within Riverfields, our current residential estate offerings include Glen Eagle Estate, Swallow Hills, Glen Erasmia Boulevard and Glen Starling. These estates are all sought-after within the area and are perfect for family living. The Riverfields’ retirement node is currently in planning stage and we will keep you updated on future developments.
Assisted medical facilities with Feenstra Group and Bestgro
We’ve put plans in place to support our new retirement community in Riverfields with the introduction of a medical node. Through partnership with Bestgro and Feenstra Group, the medical facility will provide assisted living and frail care facilities.
The focus will be on:
- Quality continuum care
- Enhancing patient experience
- Establishing a main health centre with satellite offices
Currently in the planning phase, the medical node is expected to provide vital health and wellness services for the Riverfields community and the greater area of Kempton Park, Bredell and Benoni.
Progressive and community focused
Bestgro, Benchmark and Feenstra Group, renowned for their commitment to sustainable and innovative developments, are leading the charge. Their expertise ensures that Riverfields stays at the forefront of global technological advancements and healthcare trends. By strategically planning the retirement and medical facilities, they aim to create a seamless integration of health services into the community.
Creating a medical community in Riverfields
Medical facilities play an integral role in the well-being of any residential community. A well-functioning and trusted facility can assist doctors to serve their community for the long term.
The medical node will introduce a hub-and-spoke design model. A central hub with advanced medical facilities will be established and supported by satellite facilities in the community. The hub-and-spoke design approach will produce a more suitable patient environment and drastically enhance service effectiveness. This innovative design will contribute to an improved patient experience and foster better collaboration among healthcare providers.
Advanced care services for all
The Riverfields medical node is not only focused on providing exceptional care to its residents but also on ensuring inclusivity. Recognising the diverse demographics of the area, the facilities will take into account the needs and resources of lower-income populations. There is even the possibility of involving international investors to further enhance the scope and quality of services. The aim is to create accessible health systems and care services that cater to the unique requirements of all individuals.
Riverfields will emerge as a shining example of a community that places health and wellness at the forefront of its development. By incorporating the latest advancements in healthcare and retirement living, Riverfields will serve its residents and uplift the surrounding areas of Kempton Park, Bredell, and Benoni. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting journey as Riverfields embarks on the next phase of development.
