Meet Our Team
Dr. Gawie Roux
Medical Doctor
Dr Gabriël Roux, a medical doctor with more than 30 years of experience in Aged Care, developed the RoseCup system to assist patients with Dysphagia. The stimulus for the invention was by the Palmada family. Dr Gabriël continues to consult on intake challenges and, in the process, places constant scrutiny on the system's capabilities with the view to further improve it.
Hannelie Roux
Registered Nurse
Hannelie is the heart of the Lifemere ethos. She is multi-talented, has a caring heart, and a deep understanding of the challenges brought about by difficulties in swallowing. If Dysphagia challenges someone, Hannelie is often the first contact at Lifemere. Her heart for people in need and her drive to make a difference for the good motivate her to achieve optimal results for our clients. We appreciate the expertise and assistance of employees, associates, and partners in the industry; without them, we could not operate.
Thanks to all individuals, groups and businesses working with us to achieve the Lifemere goals!
