  • Value for money:

    Many of the guests interviewed stated that financial concerns were an important factor in their decision to live in a Chiang Mai care home. Listen to how much further their money goes in Chiang Mai.

  • Quality of Care:

    Thai society places great importance on being patient, smiling and keeping calm. Additionally, the elderly are held in high regard. Thais are natural care givers, especially for older people.

  • You can get everything you need here:

    When asked if they missed things that were not available locally the answer was “We can get nearly everything we could ever want here”

  • Fabulous weather:

    Never being cold is a big plus. It also means that people spend a lot more time out and about. Thai care homes provide lots of activities to join in with if you choose. The good weather increases the number of available healthy activities.

  • Specialist care such as Dementia/Alzheimer’s:

    Chiang Mai care homes offer 24/7/365 comprehensive levels of  specialist care. Elderly people can obtain levels of care for Alzheimer’s and Dementia that are either unaffordable or non-existant back in their home countries.
