Our aim is to promote the Well-being of older people and help make life a more fulfilling and enjoyable experience. In order to achieve this object we are committed to promoting independent living and reducing social interventions so they can live their life with dignity.
We strongly believe that today Elderly people only need warmth and support and Corsendonk Svastha takes this great honor in giving that Warmth, love, care and support which is slowly fading away in their lives.
