Healing Wings South Africa facilitates a family programme for families/care givers of residents. Families/caregivers are encouraged to participate and assist in the process of the residents recovery programme. The following resources are put into place for families/caregivers to maintain involvement for the duration of the residents programme and to assist in the reintegration of the resident into the family and society:

• A routine for regular telephone calls between the family/caregiver and the resident is established.




• Other correspondence with the resident is encouraged, including emails and letters




• Regular telephonic contact between the family/caregiver
  and the residents individual counsellor.

• Thorough progress reports on the completion of each 3 month programme will be sent to the family/caregiver.
• Families/caregivers are encouraged to visit the resident at Healing Wings.

All visits to be confirmed with management beforehand. There is a guesthouse on the property and we facilitate a family integration programme in which the resident and the family will meet with the residents individual counsellor.

• Weekend breaks for the resident, off Healing Wings Premises – earned on merit.
• Holidays away/home for the resident with his/her family/caregiver
  are arranged. Holidays are for a recommended time period, with the appropriate and necessary accountability contract set-up.
