Unlike days of olde, are no longer institutional settings, but instead provide a level of service more akin to a hotel experience.
Looking to leaders in the hospitality sector, a retirement residence香蕉视频直播檚 focus should be as much on hospitality and customer service as it is ensuring a safe and connected way of living.
Reasons for making the move are usually a combination of:
- Feeling isolated at home and wanting more social engagements and shared activities
- Wanting relief from shopping, cooking and daily chores
- Lessening the administration commitments of life
- Mobility challenges in the home
- Requiring centralised care and 24/7 personnel
Like a hotel, the quality of these hospitality services, range of amenities and overall experience, can differ and is often reflected in the monthly living rates.
Although the industry is dominated by national and international companies, there are not-for-profit Residences, that offer quality services for seniors, and operate in an environment which deeply cares about the individual.
