Many older people realise that they need health care. Their residence in a nursing home may be precipitated by a health crisis or by a growing awareness of health vulnerabilities. Medication administration, nursing staff, alternative aids such as massage therapy and even fitness centres are among the health care needs taken care of in our Tunisian retirement home.

Some seniors hide some of their personal care needs or simply deny that they need help with transportation, mobility or other personal care. In our retirement home in Tunisia, this specialized assistance is easily accessible.

No more burden of housework in a private retirement home in Tunisia

No more housework, no more cooking, no more gardening… In short, all the services of a hotel. It’s almost too much freedom for some. Others compare it to the feeling of leaving home and moving into your first year university residence.

Keeping an elderly person suffering from Alzheimer’s disease at home is a real struggle. In the advanced stages of the disease, the elderly person can no longer manage on their own at home without jeopardising their personal safety.

A nursing home is usually the safest solution. It offers comprehensive care in an appropriate environment, especially if you opt for a retirement home with a specialised Alzheimer’s unit.

The care team in the Alzheimer’s units of our Tunisian retirement home is trained to provide the best possible support, but also to provide support to families.

Although nursing home care can be costly, it is reassuring for family members who are unable to take on all the care tasks necessary for a loved one with a severe loss of autonomy. Therefore, family members need not feel guilty when they can no longer leave the elderly person at home alone and Alzheimer’s care in a nursing home becomes the safest and most reassuring option.

A nursing home provides adequate care for people in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. People with dementia may not have many medical problems at this stage, but they need more intensive support with instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs), including the activities we do every day that improve our quality of life. Instrumental activities of daily living are normal activities that we need to do every day. People with Alzheimer’s disease may also need help with these tasks.

In our Alzheimer’s home in Tunisia, people usually live in a private room or shared flat, and have staff available to assist them 24 hours a day. This type of accommodation is ideal for someone who may be largely independent but needs help with ADLs. Transportation to and from medical appointments and social activities is also provided in the Alzheimer’s home in Tunisia. These facilities also have dining rooms where residents gather for meals.

We also offer “special care units” in the specialised Alzheimer’s house in Tunisia, where the person can go when their needs become too great for general assisted living.
