Everything families ask us
26 questions, answered as plainly as we can. Where we genuinely don't have a confirmed answer yet, we say so rather than guess — those are marked and will be filled in as the details are finalised.
Pricing
How much does assisted living cost in Bangalore?
Assisted living at Novara Senior Living is priced in bands by room type and care level; see the full breakdown on our pricing page rather than a single number, because the honest answer depends on how much support your parent needs.
What is included in the monthly cost?
The pricing page breaks down what each band includes — as a rule, meals, personal care, housekeeping and activities are included, while add-ons are stated separately rather than hidden.
What happens to my deposit if my parent decides not to move in?
Registration and deposit terms are confirmed with your family in writing at the time of admission, before any payment is made.
Admissions
Is Novara Senior Living licensed?
Novara Senior Living's licence and registration number is being finalised for publication here; ask directly on a call in the meantime.
Where exactly is Novara Senior Living located?
We're at C-15, 3rd A Cross Rd, Manyata Residency, Manayata Tech Park, Nagavara, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560045 — see our location page for directions.
Do you offer short-term or trial stays?
A structured short-term trial stay is being planned; call to ask what's available right now for your specific situation.
How quickly can my parent move in?
For a planned move, Novara Senior Living typically needs a few days to prepare the room; for an urgent transition-care need after a hospital discharge, call us directly and we treat it as time-sensitive.
Can my parent bring their own furniture?
This depends on room size and layout, which is being finalised alongside the pricing bands; ask on a call or visit.
Is there a minimum stay?
Minimum stay terms vary by service line and are being finalised — transition care and rehab are typically short stays by design; assisted living is typically longer-term.
How do siblings who disagree about assisted living usually resolve it?
It helps to visit together if possible, or to share a recorded video tour and a written cost breakdown so everyone is deciding from the same facts rather than assumptions — our making-the-decision page goes into this in more depth.
Can I speak to a current resident's family before deciding?
Novara Senior Living is pre-launch and does not yet have consenting families to introduce prospective families to; this will be offered as soon as it can be done honestly.
Care
What is the difference between assisted living and a nursing home?
Assisted living means your parent lives in a supported home with help for daily tasks like bathing and medication, while a nursing home is built around continuous medical treatment — most families looking at Novara Senior Living want the former.
What if my parent needs more care later?
Novara Senior Living reassesses care needs regularly and moves a resident to a higher care band rather than asking the family to leave — the goal is one home through changing needs, not repeated moves.
How do I know if my parent needs assisted living or just help at home?
If your parent is safe alone for most of the day but needs help with specific tasks, home health care may be enough; if they need supervision most of the day or are isolated and at risk, assisted living usually serves them better — our team can help you think through which fits on a call.
What is a caregiver-to-resident ratio and what is yours?
Novara Senior Living's caregiver-to-resident ratio is being finalised for publication — we would rather confirm the real number than publish an estimate.
Do you support residents with dementia or memory loss?
Yes, through our dedicated memory care service, built around routine, a secured environment and staff trained for the specific challenges of dementia care.
What languages does your staff speak?
The languages spoken by our care staff are being confirmed for publication — ask directly if a specific language matters for your parent.
What safety features does the facility have?
Our safety and clinical protocol section on the Life at Novara page lists the safety measures in place.
Do you accept residents needing wheelchair or bed-bound care?
The level of mobility support Novara Senior Living can accommodate is being finalised for publication — call to discuss your parent's specific mobility needs.
Visiting
Can I visit before making a decision?
Yes. Novara Senior Living encourages every family to visit in person before deciding — book a visit through the form on this page or call us directly to arrange a time.
Can family visit anytime?
Yes. Families are welcome to visit anytime — we just ask for a quick call ahead so we can make sure your visit goes smoothly.
Medical
Do you have doctors on site?
The exact doctor visit schedule and on-call arrangement is being finalised for publication; call to ask about coverage for a specific condition.
What happens in a medical emergency?
Novara Senior Living's emergency protocol and named hospital tie-up is being finalised for publication here.
How do you handle medication management?
The exact medication administration and tracking protocol is being finalised; ask directly for the specifics relevant to your parent's prescriptions.
Do you provide transport for hospital visits or appointments?
Transport arrangements for outside appointments are being finalised for publication here.
How is my parent's health status communicated to me?
The exact family communication cadence and channel (call, WhatsApp, or a written update) is being finalised.
