Golden Years is an upcoming retirement village for senior citizens (above 55yrs) near Kottayam town.
Growing old is a natural process in life. With an ever changing society and lifestyle, the senior care sector in Kerala has seen a revolution in the last few years. The need for care and social interaction as well as a sense of security being taken care of, is the necessity of the hour. An increasing trend in the state where younger generations migrating to greener pastures abroad or bigger cities in India is also a major factor demanding the need of facilities which offer Senior citizens an Independent lifestyle with elegance.
What is Independent Living? Independent senior living is for older adults looking for an active, engaged lifestyle free of day-to-day chores. Independent living communities are also known as Retirement communities/homes or Senior Housing. Independent Living offers all the advantages of being in your own home, without the hassle of maintenance, routine work or even cooking. You get to tailor make your independent living experience with a host of lifestyle alternatives.
