Seniors are gradually relocating to retirement homes as they are designed to enable seniors with everything they need to lead a comfortable and hassle-free life.
Senior living residences provide a high-quality and fulfilling lifestyle for seniors by offering various amenities and services that cater to their daily essentials.
Luxury residences like Antara’s Dehradun retirement homes provide state-of-the-art amenities like swimming pools, gyms, spas, salons, libraries, theaters, and restaurants. Antara’s independent living residences ensure seniors' holistic well-being, encourage active aging and promote community living. Apart from facilities, a key element in making sure seniors are safe and cared for lies with the staff of the retirement homes who play a critical role in their daily lives.
The role of staff in retirement homes
The team on-ground is responsible for catering to the physical, emotional, and social well-being of residents, and for providing a high-quality and supportive living environment. The staff at senior living residences are trained to help residents maintain their independence while enabling easy access to assistance whenever they need it. They also take care of all the daily needs of residents so they can enjoy a relaxed and stress-free lifestyle.
The staff at retirement homes are a team of well-trained and experienced professionals who specialize in senior citizen care. The professionals study and understand each resident’s unique needs and preferences, and chart personalized care plans to cater to their individual needs. Caregivers ensure residents receive the right level of support and comfort to lead a fulfilling and happy life.
The importance of healthcare professionals in retirement homes
Each resident requires specialized care and some may require more assistance than others. While some seniors are healthy and independent, others might have health conditions that require regular monitoring or help with daily chores.
