Dear Team Sahabhaav My heartfelt thanks to each one of you for giving a beautiful home to my father for the last 2 years of his life.Selfless service and caring nature by each one of you filled his days with joy. He was almost wheel chair bound for last 2 years but he went on so many outings with you guys. Being a foodie he enjoyed his meals which were varied and thoughtfully crafted . The last 6 months of his life he was going through several ups and downs with his health ,but you guys gave him the best and prompt medical assistance. Thanks so much team ,forever indebted to you all.

It's a wonderful place for seniors abode My mother in law Mrs Umadevi dutt is taken care of by Dr Mini and her staff at Andheri West centre, as if she's their own mother. Dr Mini has started this assisted help, resulting in a very comfortable stay for elderly. There was always a need for such assistance in mumbai. Thankfully this vacuum has been filled

We found this gem of a place for my Dad to stay in when we had to move out of Mumbai for work. we did a lot of research in finding the right place and also visited quite a few assisted living facilities. Sahabhaav clearly stood out much above the rest. We wanted him to be comfortable, get all facilities as at home and also company of people of his age. We could see all this in action at Sahabhaav. This is a premium facility with well appointed rooms, good space for activities for the occupants, highly motivated and trained staff and all facilities that one can hope for. My father had a very good time at Sahabhaav. he was appreciative of the team led by Dr Mini, Amee, Neelam, Jasleen. During Covid times as well when he needed to be hospitalised the team was quick enough to take fast actions and got him treated very well. They have all in house facilities and medical care that is required. We strongly recommend Sahabhaav for any one who is looking for a great place for their Parents.

"I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional level of care and love provided to the residents at Sahabhaav . From the moment I stepped in, I was struck by the warm and welcoming environment. The staff members are truly compassionate and go above and beyond to ensure that each resident receives the utmost care and attention. It's heartwarming to witness the genuine love they have for the people they serve. I highly recommend Sahabhaav for their unparalleled dedication to the well-being and happiness of their residents."

Sahabhaav .. true to its name .. is a place where you see happy and joyful coexistence of resident seniors along with their extended family of caretakers, managers, cooks, doctors, nurses and of course the main core management team of Sahabhaav. It is one big happy family.. Our experience right from the word go .. when I made that first call which was answered by Ami ..to the quick and prompt introduction with Dr Mini .. the owner and founder.. and then a wonderful virtual tour of the place .. was just amazing. Sitting thousands of miles away from India, desperately seeking help for my completely bedridden and dementia ridden mother in law .. Sahabhaav was nothing less than a Godsend gift to us! The initial conversation itself with Mini and Ami was comforting and encouraging enough for us to take our decision. We planned a trip to Mumbai soon to meet with them. Our first meeting was so wonderful. The warmth and affection and the dedication and commitment towards this wonderful cause of elderly care could be seen in everyone from the owner to her managers to the entire staff. It was an easy decision for us and we moved mummy to their 2nd center within a week. Mummy was with them for almost two years. She was extremely well taken care of all through! Her physical, mental, emotional and day to day personal needs were all met with to our satisfaction and beyond. The place is clean and well maintained. Food served is delicious and customized keeping in mind medical needs and concerns. The activities and entertainment for the residents is wonderfully coordinated. Overall a home.. a haven of care and comfort for all the residents there. Kudos to team Sahabhaav for their exemplary service. We couldn't have found a better place for mummy. Keep up the good work! Mini, Ami, Jasleen and Neelam..and the entire staff of Sahabhaav. .. thank you from the bottom of our hearts.. both Vinod and I are grateful to you all for everything you'll did for mummy and us! God bless you all!

Sahabhaav was the best decision we took when we were looking for a home and family for my father, a true Mumbaikar. His stay of little over a year at Sahabhaav was filled with warm affection, love, care and tremendous patience by each and every person from the Sahabhaav team. Everyone at Sahabhhav was highly responsible and responsive. We found them to be very friendly ... not just to all the senior citizens who stay at Sahabhaav, but also to the visiting friends and family. The Sahabhaav facility was excellent. Most days at Sahabhaav were filled with several activities, starting with Yoga in the morning to drawing/painting/games in the afternoon. They also celebrated most festivals and holidays, as well as everyone's birthdays. The Sahabhaav team would take photos and videos of my father participating in these activities and share them with us almost daily. Dad was very picky and selective about his food. The Sahabhaav team took the effort to understand his likes, dislikes and preferences, and tried to offer him variety that would keep him happy. Perhaps the most challenging situation we faced during my dad's stay at Sahabhaav was when he was hospitalised for Covid. When he returned from hospital, he was very disoriented, and very fragile both mentally and physically. The Sahabhaav team worked tirelessly for weeks to bring him back to his cheerful self, as well as to take care of all of his physical ailments. Overall, we could not have found a better home for Dad. We would like to thank the entire Sahabhaav team for everything they have done for Dad and us!

Just as the African proverb says, " it takes a village to raise a child", there is truth in the fact that it takes an entire ecosystem to care for the beloved aged. Sahabhaav is one such ecosystem; truly synonymous with "compassion and care". We could not ask for a more caring "home away from home" for our dear mother. It took no more than an assuring personal visit from Dr Mini Panicker and Ms. Amee Shah for my mother to choose Sahabhaav. Let me stress on the most important aspect of any facility---- its staff. Dr Panicker's team members (or as she calls it her 'working hands') are not only skilled and experienced but also extremely empathetic and approachable individuals. To name a few, Ms Amee - she is quite the WHOLE N SOUL of the place, a blend of 'soft yet firm', handling the show at Sahabhaav with the greatest efficiency. Ms Shobha - a warm and compassionate person catering to each resident's individual needs, along with efficiently managing the kitchen and tempting elders with her yummy goodies. Ms. Kausar- a quiet, efficient and able person always ready to assist in times of need. Ms Jasleen and Ms Neelam- wonderful, thoughful women, managing everything with precision. Ms Neelam conducts the yoga exercise session which is my mother's favourite part of the day. Dr Manish- caters not only to medical needs of residents; but also regales them with his sense of humor. Round the clock nurses---they do their job diligently and quietly, dispensing the right medicine at the right time. These and so many more dear staff strive every single day to provide a safe and secure environment for the residents. Clean airy rooms, comfortable amenities, medical facilities, hygienic food, focus on individual diet needs, daily visits of in-house doctor, physiotherapist, round the clock nurses-----these are the highlights that make Sahabhaav special. A medical emergency (my mother has had to be rushed to hospital considerably) is managed brilliantly and family members are not troubled in any way. Worth mentioning here--every birthday, festival or national days are celebrated, residents are taken once in a while for short leisure trips and family members of residents are continuously involved in their loved one's progress. Daily evening activties cater to the mental needs of the residents and bring cheer to them.Every resident is persuaded to join in the festivals and activities; no matter the medical condition; but if one does not wish to, the staff gives him/her the space required and the freedom to do so. Now the largest drawback faced in metro cities is the lack of understanding sensible maids. Most of the elderly ( speaking from my mum's struggles over the years) find it difficult to adjust with them. However, I have noticed that, with consistent efforts and training on the part of Sahabhaav staff and a bit of cooperation from the residents, the adjustment gets easier gradually. Negative feedback ( in case of any from family members) is taken by the staff very readily and every attempt is made to help the resident. To conclude I can only say, if "strengthening the old is strengthening the nation", then each one at Sahabhaav is doing just that---putting their heart and soul into each day; with unconditional love in their hearts.

I am writing this review to express my sincere gratitude for the care that my mother received at Sahabhaav. From the moment we made contact to when we met in person, and my mother's arrival into Sahabhaav's facility, the staff were welcoming and compassionate, and they consistently demonstrated a dedication to providing the highest level of care. The staff was always kind and attentive, and they went above and beyond to make sure that my mother was comfortable and well taken care of. The level of care was exceptional, especially the care they provided to my mother during her final months and ensured that her needs were met, whether it be for medical attention or simply a conversation to brighten her day. My mother received round-the-clock attention from staff, who were always quick to respond to any needs or concerns. They provided personalized care that took into account her specific medical and emotional needs. They were always available to listen and offer comfort, and for that, we are forever grateful. They kept me updated on my mother's condition and were always available to answer any questions I had. I never felt like I was in the dark about her care. The facility itself is well-maintained and clean, and there are plenty of activities and amenities to keep residents engaged and entertained. The food is also delicious & top-notch, and customized for each resident. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the care that my mother received at Sahabhaav and would highly recommend it to others in need of assisted living services. My mother has passed away, but I will always remember the care and kindness she received at Sahabhaav. There are many names to thank here, Mini Panicker - the owner/head of the facility, Jasleen & Neelam - the managers and Amie, who heads up the operations, and along with these exceptional ladies, the rest of the Sahabhaav team who have done a wonderful job in providing an exemplary level of service.
