31 Mar 2026 CW Team

The Antara Care Home in Noida's Sector 66 has become the first senior care facility in the district to receive the National Accreditation Board for Hospitals and Healthcare Providers Care Home Accreditation. The award makes Antara the only assisted living provider with NABH accredited care homes in north India and is the second facility in its network to gain the recognition. The move forms part of Antara Senior Care's plan to extend the framework across its network in Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru and Chennai.

NABH Care Home Accreditation sets safety and quality norms tailored to residential senior care and focuses on standardised processes, trained staff and measurable outcomes. Antara said the certification demonstrates that care is delivered through defined processes, by qualified professionals and under independent verification. The group noted its Gurugram care home received the certification in 2025.

The Noida facility was assessed on resident safety, quality of life measures, clinical governance, staff training, medication management and infection control. Evaluators also examined infrastructure standards, continuous potable water and electricity, and safety device inspection. The audit covered biomedical waste management, documented facility rounds, emergency preparedness and grievance redressal systems.

India faces a demographic shift with its senior population projected to more than double to 350 million (mn) by 2050 and the population aged eighty and above expected to rise by 279 per cent. The Antara Care Home in Noida offers 53 beds and provides short, medium and long term care, clinically supervised transition care and 24x7 nursing with geriatric trained teams and allied therapies. Antara operates eight facilities with 485 beds across Gurugram, Noida, Bengaluru and Chennai and its AGEasy service has reached 0.65 mn lives since 2023.
