Life St Joseph's Visiting Hours

Visiting times

Weekdays
18:00 to 19:30
Weekends and public holidays
14:00 to 16:00

St Joseph's puts its weekday visiting in the evening, from 18:00 to 19:30, and moves it to the afternoon at weekends, so the day of the week decides when you come. It is a 100-bed mental health facility next to Life Entabeni in Berea, designed for calm, and treatment runs to a programme through the day, which is why visiting sits outside working hours.
