Nadagowdagollahalli is a village on the northern edge of Bengaluru, near Kannur on the road to Bagalur. The home here gives its postal address as Kannuru village, via Bagalur. This is still a green, open landscape of farms, layouts and the odd school or institution, about halfway between Hennur and the airport side of north Bangalore. Families choosing senior living in Nadagowdagollahalli are usually looking for space, quiet and a gentle routine rather than city convenience.
Elkin lists one home here, Divina Eventide, a faith-based senior living community run by a congregation of Catholic sisters. It welcomes residents of every background.
Divina Eventide, near Kannur
Divina Eventide is run by the Daughters of Divine Providence and opened in 2018. It is newer and more spacious than many church-run homes, and it offers a choice of single, double, deluxe and suite rooms, each with a private bathroom and a kitchenette. Rooms are fully furnished with a television, intercom, Wi-Fi, a geyser, a large cupboard and an emergency call bell, and some have a balcony. Rooms are ready for air conditioning to be installed if a resident wants it.
Care is steady rather than clinical. Residents get daily support, help with housekeeping and linen, food and dietary management, physiotherapy and support after a hospital stay, with nursing care and a doctor's consultation every week. There is a medical bay on campus, palliative care when it is needed, and counselling and spiritual guidance for those who want it. The campus is barrier-free and wheelchair accessible, with a lift, generator backup, landscaped gardens and a walking path.
Community life centres on the chapel, the dining hall, a cafe, a library, a games room and a common TV room. Guest accommodation means visiting family can stay over, which is a real help for children travelling from other cities. For more homes with nursing support, see assisted living homes in Bengaluru.
Why families consider this corner of north Bangalore
- Calm surroundings. With farmland and open plots around, the campus is quiet and the air is fresher than in the city.
- Near the airport side of the city. The Bagalur road network links towards Kempegowda International Airport, so relatives flying in can reach the home without crossing Bengaluru.
- Medical care. The large hospitals of Hebbal, including Aster CMI and Manipal Hospital Hebbal, are reached through Hennur and the ring road. Ask the home which hospital it uses in an emergency and how long the drive takes.
- A faith-based routine. For Christian families in particular, daily Mass and prayer in the chapel can be a comfort, while residents of other faiths are free to follow their own routine.
Costs in and around Nadagowdagollahalli
Faith-run homes on the city's edge are often more affordable than private care chains. As a rough guide, a single or double room with meals and support in this part of north Bengaluru costs about ₹20,000 to ₹45,000 a month, with deluxe rooms and suites at the higher end. Residents who need regular nursing or palliative care may pay more, roughly ₹40,000 to ₹70,000 a month. These ranges are approximate, so confirm the current fee, the deposit and what is included with the sisters who run the home.
