Residence Brief

Oasis is located within the northern fringes of greater Kolkata, in the historical town of Barrackpore, on Barrackpore - Kalyani Express way, amidst a lush greenery landscape. Oasis is managed and run by KPB Institute of Gerontology, registered under Company Registration Act-1956 and in assistance with a society for care of the senior citizen along with its other services. This is the 1st comprehensive residential enclave for assisted living for elderly, Dementia and those suffering from Alzheimer's in eastern India. The challenge posed by Dementia as a health, economic and social issue is of a scale we can no longer ignore. Despite the magnitude, there is gross ignorance, neglect and scarce services for people with dementia and their families. We now have a range of options to treat the symptoms of Dementia and offer practical help to those affected persons. To meet the challenge of Dementia in eastern India, the initiative has been taken and this is a significant step forward in Dementia care movement in our zone.
