It is anticipated that Bangladesh, along with a few other Asian nations, would house the
majority of the old people during the next several decades. Generally, a lower mortality rate
confirms the country's current and anticipated aging population. However, the present
difficulties confronting Bangladesh's older people are proving to impede their well-being.
There is a critical need for services geared exclusively for the older population, such as care
and health services.
Residential care homes are designed for elders who require round-the-clock help. Residents'
safety and health care needs are handled in a family-like setting at these homes. Homes are
generally nestled away in residential areas, providing more supervision and structure. This is
an alternative for seniors who desire a quieter lifestyle, a homelike ambiance, and intimate
relationships.
Every house on the block is unique, and no two residential care homes for the elderly are
alike in design or management. Some have a lot of things to do, while others are more lowkey. All residential care homes aim to provide high-quality living, care, meals, and
companionship to their residents.
