The new facility is a joint initiative between KITES Senior care and Chennai based Ahavaa Eldercare (promoted by the reputed Aban Group) to make expert eldercare accessible to seniors & elderly in Chennai.
KITES Senior Care provides “Out of Hospital” geriatric care services covering post-surgery and post hospitalisation Rehabilitation care, Palliative care and Dementia care both in its specialised care facilities and at the residence of elders. Since 2016, KITES has cared for over 5,300 seniors in Bengaluru and Hyderabad.
KITES senior care recently closed a Pre Series A funding of USD 2 Million from Dr Ranjan Pai’s MEMG family office.
The Ahavaa KITES Senior Care facility in Chennai with about 15,000Sq ft of built-up space is equipped with over 45 beds and is situated in T.Nagar, Chennai. Key facilities include luxurious air-conditioned rooms (both single & twin sharing), High Dependency Unit (HDU) beds, and several recreational activities.
This initiative is a unique & the first one of its kind for this industry which is in its nascent stages & is built on the managed contract model.
Although Chennai has a thriving senior living services, it lacks in providing quality ‘out of hospital’ medical care for elderly. The brand plans to open a few more centres in Chennai the coming year and enter three more southern states soon thereby expanding its footprint.
