As it becomes prohibitive in many western countries to afford proper care for the elderly, many are choosing Chiang Mai care homes for their twilight years. This explosion of care homes come in all varieties, specialities and price points.
Thailand was ranked sixth-best in the world for medical care by CEOWORLD magazine in 2019. Chiang Mai offers exceptional medical care and services at a fraction of the cost of many countries.
The public health system is of exceptional quality as are the many world-class private hospitals and specialist clinics, all of which are accessible to any patient with good health coverage. A reliable and competent workforce of nurses also supplies care homes and private home care needs across the region.
