    Our Approach

    Care That Understands the Person, Not Just Dementia

    Comfort in Everyday Routines

    We help elders with bathing, dressing, meals and daily activities, following familiar routines that bring comfort, reassurance and a sense of independence.

    Understanding Changes in Behaviour

    Our psychologists respond with patience and understanding to confusion, restlessness, wandering and agitation, helping elders feel safe, calm and respected.

    Keeping the Mind Active

    Through music, memory games, conversations and activities based on individual interests and abilities, we encourage participation, connection and moments of joy.

    Supporting Families Along the Way

    Our psychologists guide families in understanding dementia, managing everyday challenges and making informed care decisions as their loved one's needs change.

    Care for Every Stage

    Support That Changes With Their Needs

    Early Stage

    Structured routines, cognitive engagement, companionship and family guidance.

    Mid Stage

    Closer supervision, trained caregiver support and behaviour management.

    Late Stage

    Round-the-clock support for daily activities, comfort and dignity.

    Why Aaji Care

    What Sets Our Dementia Care Apart

    Four things we do that go beyond a standard caregiver service.

    Dementia-Sensitive Environmental Design

    Our spaces are designed with dementia in mind, including a dedicated dementia floor at our Pune Kalyani Nagar centre, so elders feel oriented and safe.

    Person-Centred Care

    Care is built around each elder's own food, routine and the people who matter to them, not around a standard schedule.

    Family Counselling and Psychoeducation

    Psychologists trained in geriatric care help families understand dementia, respond to changing behaviour and cope with caregiver stress.

    In-House Caregiver Training

    Every dementia caregiver completes our own 45-day programme, then continues training and clinical supervision after placement.

    The Plan

    How We Plan Care Around One Person

    Before care begins, our team learns who your parent is, not only what condition they have. The plan is written down, shared with the family and reviewed as needs change.

    This is an illustrative sample of what a plan covers.

    Sample Care Plan

    Illustrative example
    Know the person
    Preferred name, language, life story, food preferences, music, and the people who matter most.
    Daily rhythm
    Meals, walks and rest timed to when your parent is calmest and most alert.
    Triggers and calming responses
    What tends to cause restlessness or agitation, and what helps, such as a familiar song or activity.
    Engagement
    Memory activities, music and simple tasks matched to current abilities and interests.
    Safety
    Wandering precautions, fall prevention and medication support.
    Family loop
    Daily documented observations on medication, meals, mood and mobility, shared on the family WhatsApp group by the Care Manager.
    The Training

    How a caregiver is prepared before entering your parent's life.

    45
    Days of structured training

    Most care providers in India train for 7 to 10 days. We took a different view: the person going into your parent's home every day deserves more preparation than that.

    What the 45 days cover

    Geriatric physiology
    Dementia behaviour management
    Emotional support techniques
    Daily care protocols
    Emergency response
    Medication management
    Family communication
    After placement: continuous training, regular assessments and clinical supervision.

    FAQ

    Questions Families Often Ask

    Consider extra support when memory loss, confusion, behaviour changes or difficulty with daily tasks become consistent, or start to affect your parent's safety and routine. You do not need a formal diagnosis to speak to our team. We can help you understand what you are seeing and what to do next.

    Yes. Since dementia care is one of the services we provide at home, your parent can continue receiving care in the comfort of their own home without moving to a centre. Depending on the elder's condition and needs, we provide either dementia care by our trained psychologists or caregiver services for assistance with daily living and supervision. Support can be arranged for a few hours a day or as 24/7 round-the-clock care. A centre admission is only considered when home care is no longer sufficient or safe for the elder.

    Our Assisted Living Centres are currently in three cities: Mumbai (three centres, in Versova, Thane, and D.N. Nagar), Pune (Kalyani Nagar), and Goa (Old Goa). For families in other locations, our patient care at home and dementia care at home services cover a wider area. We are expanding our Assisted Living Centres to Vadodara, Hyderabad, and Bangalore. Contact us to check availability near you.

    Dementia counselling is guidance from psychologists trained in geriatric care for elders living with dementia and their families. It helps you understand the condition, respond to changing behaviour, manage caregiver stress and plan future care. It is a separate service, so you can seek it even if you are not yet considering home care or a centre.

    Every caregiver completes our in-house 45-day programme covering dementia behaviour management, emotional support, daily care protocols, medication management, emergency response and family communication. After placement, caregivers continue to receive training, regular assessments and clinical supervision from our team.

    A dedicated Care Manager is your single point of contact. Caregivers document medication, meals, mood and mobility on every shift, and updates are shared with the whole family on a dedicated WhatsApp group. You always know how your parent is doing, wherever you are.

    Our centres have 24/7 nursing support, emergency escalation protocols and tie-ups with major hospitals in each city. For care at home, your Care Manager is your first point of contact and coordinates with the family and your parent's treating doctors.

    Start with a conversation. Tell us what changes you have noticed, and our team will help you understand whether home care, an assisted living centre, counselling, or a combination suits your parent right now. There is no commitment at this stage.

    Very nice place for seniors. However, the management is not reachable by phone. Not listed with just dial either.

    Excellent facility and much needed in Goa. We are so happy that we have finally found a place that provides the care that my relative needs. Beautiful place, spotlessly clean, very caring and competent staff that go above and beyond to provide outstanding service and keep me regularly informed. I am usually very critical, but Aaji Care has exceeded my expectations.

    A beautiful space, well kept with a beautiful garden. A sense of peace & calm is the vibe of the surrounding. Adding to this tranquility, is the warm caring interaction of each & every member, working at Aaji Care in whatever capacity. ‘The people make the place’. Aaji care is what it is because the individuals running/managing/orchestrating it all, are doing it with passion. Thank you all at Aaji Care, for caring the way you do. 🙏🏽😊
