Growing Older, Living Better: Jagriti Dham, A Premium Old Age Home in Kolkata for Every Stage of Ageing

Ageing is a process. What was comfortable at 60 is not so at 70 or 80. In our 60s, we run big houses, climb stairs, and supervise help. In our 70s and 80s, all this becomes hard and sometimes, frankly, boring. Ageing is not just the accumulation of years. It is about the physical and lifestyle changes from the stage of total independence to when one needs care.

The question constantly on the minds of Kolkata parents with children abroad and their own corporate lives to manage is: Is my parent safe? Are they lonely? Who will be there in case of an emergency?

At Jagriti Dham, we redefine retirement. As a premium old age home in Kolkata, we offer a sanctuary that blends uncompromising safety with genuine luxury. You have spent a lifetime working hard; now, it is time to embrace the exceptional lifestyle you have earned.

Why is Jagriti Dham Kolkata’s most-preferred luxury old age home?

Infrastructure: Luxurious yet age-proof

Most seniors will not even consider moving unless they have a really good reason, because they have emotional bonds with their home. We provide those reasons.

Age Proof Campus: We have developed the complete campus at Jagriti Dham to be navigable by the typical senior citizen. From anti-skid flooring to grab bars in bathrooms to spacious elevators, the campus is free of the usual fall hazards present in old Kolkata buildings.

The Residential Resort: Fully furnished air-conditioned rooms with housekeeping and laundry services provided. A personal residential retreat from all the daily chores of running a home.

Beautiful Landscaped Gardens: Regular, guided morning walks in the beautifully landscaped gardens, to keep seniors fit and active both physically and mentally.

24/7 Medical Back Up, the Ultimate Assurance for Parents

Medical needs are the most important anxiety for families. The later stages of ageing bring with them unanticipated medical needs.

24/7 Nursing Backup: In-home care, you depend on an attendant, who may be asleep when the need arises, or untrained to handle a medical emergency. At Jagriti Dham, a premium old age home in Kolkata, we monitor vitals and health patterns, taking special care with medications.

Immediate Emergency Backup: With our own ambulances and tie-ups with the top hospitals in Kolkata, we can get seniors to an emergency room in minutes. Medical emergencies have time windows, and in those crucial minutes before reaching the hospital, our staff is trained to manage time.

Holistic Wellness: Our medical services are not just for when seniors fall ill, but to help them stay healthy. Regular physiotherapy sessions, exercise programmes, and health check-ups to manage arthritis, diabetes, etc., in their initial stages.

A Culinary Experience Designed for Seniors

Food is the first casualty when seniors live alone. They often forget to eat or eat only what they can cook with little effort. Junk food is highly overrated.

Nutritious Home-Style Food: Fresh home-style vegetarian meals cooked by our dietitian-approved kitchen to cater to the nutritional needs of the elderly.

Seniors Who Live in Kolkata Know Food. We Know Bengali Tastes: While our food is healthy, low oil, and low spice, we never compromise on taste. Dining at Jagriti Dham, a premium old age home in Kolkata is a social activity, and we believe it is also important to enjoy a good meal.

A Community for Seniors, Fighting Loneliness

Loneliness is a disease, the most pernicious of all, and highly prevalent among the elderly. At Jagriti Dham, we have built in mechanisms to prevent this.

Active Living: Our active ageing calendar includes morning yoga and meditation to regular cultural events, to our festivities calendar. So seniors will never get bored.

Stimulate the Intellect, Feed the Soul: Our library and other common areas are a space for the exchange of ideas and the all-important “adda.” Mentally challenged seniors make for a dull community, so we keep both their minds and souls occupied. That is what makes us a true senior wellness retreat.

Trial & Short Stays at Your Convenience

We understand that deciding to shift permanently is a big decision. That is why we offer the following options.

Trial Stay: Not sure? We offer a trial stay service, a temporary stay old age home in Kolkata service. Great if you are a senior whose children will be out of the station for a few weeks or so, and if you want them to have peace of mind, or for seniors who have had an illness or surgery and need temporary assisted living in India before returning to their home country.

Short Stays: If moving back to your country of origin is an option, we offer a great short stay facility in our old age home in Kolkata. Stay a month or two or three with us while you decide or sort out your affairs at home.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Older people, what is the first thing to go as you age? 

As you age, the decline in high-frequency hearing and close-up vision is often the first to go. But the main changes that impact the body are the slowing down of reaction time and the loss of balance. We have well-lit areas, grab rails, and staff supervision to minimize fall risk.

• What are solutions to the problems that the elderly face? 

Safety, health care, and loneliness. Jagriti Dham solves all three under one roof:

Safety: a fully secured campus with CCTV

Healthcare: 24×7 medical staff

Loneliness: A vibrant, thriving community with like-minded peers

• At around what age does an elderly man start to need care? 

Every person is different, but the average age to start needing supportive care is between 60 and 70 years. It is a stage that is called “interdependence” because most day-to-day chores begin to feel physically hard. At this stage, moving to an elder care home allows seniors to enjoy their retirement without the hassles of running a home.
