Our response
to a social problem

 

For years we have been hearing talk of the shortage of places in seniors’ homes, despite the number of assisted living developments all over the country.

Artisa has contributed fully seven innovative new facilities in Canton Ticino alone over the past five years.
These facilities not only ease the burden on state-run seniors’ homes, but satisfy some of the demand for them, offering a concept of interest to a broader range of users.
All at zero cost to the state.

Lodgings offering services and care for seniors and very elderly seniors

Our partnership with leaders in the field of seniors’ care homes allows Artisa Senior Residenz to offer the real estate market living concepts designed to improve quality of life for seniors. The elderly and very elderly gain significant psychological benefits from continuing to live in their own homes rather than in a care facility. In the same way, preserving an active social life in a community brings continued vitality and positivity. In our facilities, over-65s live in their own private apartments in complete independence, in a context where they are not isolated, and which is appropriate for their current or potential future medical needs. The target market is middle-class seniors, offering apartments of various sizes where care and services are made available as required. Our residences are located adjacent to ordinary residential neighbourhoods and blend perfectly into their urban surroundings. This allows them to include apartments which are not specially fitted out for seniors, for use in a transitional phase before accessing a seniors’ home.

 

All together

Progress in medicine and technology has increased average lifespan in the industrialised nations. There are, and will be, more and more over-65s in perfect health. This has led to changes in seniors’ lifestyles: they want to continue living independently for as long as possible, maintaining their routines and social lives and delaying the need for institutionalisation in a community care home. Artisa Senior Residenz develops projects anticipating the future and responding to the demands of this growing segment of the market. Our residences are surrounded by large, well cared-for parks and incorporate common areas with vegetable plots, lounges, restaurants, cafés and shops. The constructions are located adjacent to regular residential neighbourhoods, so they will not be designated as “seniors’ homes” and marginalised. It is basically a matter of designing and building multigenerational spaces conceived in response to the needs of a massive target market that wants to feel like an essential part of a community, interacting with others through quality relationships.

Convenience and efficiency

The spaces are designed to suit their users, with no architectural barriers and plenty of essential services which guests may request at any time (cleaning, meals, 24 hour nursing service, medical examinations and more). Moreover, in the event of need for more frequent or specialised medical treatment, professional service can be arranged in-house.

The homes incorporate technologies in support of everyday living: we believe in the importance of non-invasive integration of home automation and ICT systems for checking on guests’ health and promptly reporting to their doctors.
All the units have a screen which residents can use to give all the commands they need: ordering assistance from the concierge and postal service, recording and sending medical information to their physician, and much more. There are also buttons for making emergency calls, smoke detectors, and a connection with the apartment that may be rented for a caregiver.
All clearly designed for tenants who are not particularly familiar with information technologies or suffer from pathologies that complicate their use.
