This December, we are shining a light on one of the Care Centre’s vital therapeutic disciplines — Occupational Therapy.
Meet Kyla & Renandi, supporting recovery through Occupational Therapy.
Renandi Uys
Renandi completed her Occupational Therapy degree at Stellenbosch University and her community service year in KZN. She is passionate about helping others and enjoys reading, sewing, and spending time with her loved ones.
Renandi enjoys being part of a strong multidisciplinary team (MDT) at Oasis. Collaborating closely with different professions not only supports better outcomes for our patients but also makes each day more rewarding as we learn from each other and work together.
Kyla Dirks
Kyla graduated from the University of Pretoria in 2023 and completed her community service year in the Eastern Cape. She is passionate about neurological rehabilitation and is dedicated to helping others through meaningful, patient-centred therapy.
Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her loved ones, being outdoors, and staying active. What Kyla values most about working at Oasis is supporting patients and their families during a pivotal stage of recovery. Many patients arrive after long hospital stays, and Oasis becomes their final step before returning home. It’s meaningful to help ensure they are safe for discharge, equipped with the right assistive devices, and confident in their ability to manage daily life as independently as possible.
