Philosophy of Assisted Living and Why this is a Realistic Way Forward

The genesis of Assisted Living Apartments could well be traced to the fundamental values of life, largely distinct ones like Autonomy and Choice, Engagement with Society, Dignity and Privacy, Aging in a liberal Environment. The paradigm shift from medically connoted nursing home care to that of Assisted Living which is more socially rewarding comes from aspiring senior citizens who wish to gracefully age in a homelike environment with affordable assisted living cost. Athulya, the first of its kind advanced senior living home in India, follows a no-compromise approach to being self-reliable yet ensures adequate support systems that enable senior citizens to be leading lives in their own terms.

Assisted Living Facilities are not Nursing Homes

Athulya Assisted Living, unlike regular senior living communities, revolves around support systems that take care of daily activities of senior citizens like reminders, dressing and bathing – the assistance largely being non-medical and non-nursing related. The core emphasis is on creating a homelike environment in Assisted Living with sufficient touch points to enable seniors to connect and engage with society. Nursing homes, on the other hand, are more for seniors who will need continuous medical care and they will be equipped with a nursing facility features.
