The concept of senior living is slowly but surely catching up in India and is leading to increasing demand for senior citizen homes.

Why is Senior Living Gaining Foothold in India?

According to a report by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, there were 103.8 million 60 years old and above in India in 2011. This number is expected to reach 173 million by 2026.

It is also projected that people over 60 years of age will account for 25% of the Indian population by 2050.

All these figures highlight the fact that there will be considerable growth in the elderly care industry. Prime among this being the demand for senior citizen homes.

Earlier, the joint family system had kept this demand at a bare minimum, as children took on the responsibility of the parents. However, with more and more kids following their careers, the advent of nuclear families, and an increasing desire in the elderly to continue living fulfilling life at their terms, senior living is on the rise.

All these factors reiterate the need for retirement homes that take care of every aspect of an elderly’s needs, both physical and emotional.

Eden is one such senior living option. Nestled in the scenic Himalayas, in Purukul, Dehradun, it is a senior citizen home that strives to make the golden years equally fulfilling.

Eden is founded on the belief that growing years do not mean one no longer needs mental and physical stimulation. Instead, it means that after spending decades raising a family, building careers and living a fulfilling life, it is time to switch gears and move towards another phase of an equally fulfilling life.

Apart from taking care of the physical needs of its residents – beautiful apartments, state-of-the-art medical facilities and fitness centre, Eden is full-on in taking care of their emotional needs as well. It brings together people from all walks of life, yet united in thought and spirit. Eden focuses on its residents’ wellness and has many activities built around ensuring that.

So, come to Eden and live the golden years gloriously!
