Respect is an integral part of Thai culture. Even more so is respect for and appreciation of the elderly. Our nursing teams treat our residents and guests with dignifying respect and with warmth and understanding.

The eyes are the window to the soul.

Our caregivers do not speak German and English as a native languages. However, they are very adept at learning expressions and terms come very quickly.
