Punit Nagar is a residential pocket on Old Padra Road, on the Akota side of west Vadodara, close to the Malhar Point junction. Old Padra Road is one of the city's main arteries, running south-west from the older centre towards the newer suburbs, and it is lined with clinics, banks, cafes and everyday shops. For a senior, this means a lived-in neighbourhood rather than an isolated campus, with family, doctors and markets all within easy reach.
Families looking at senior living in Punit Nagar are usually looking for serious medical care in a home setting, and that is what the area's listed home provides. Elkin lists a verified senior living home in Punit Nagar and can arrange a guided visit, or show you comparable homes in Race Course, Tandalja and Kalali.
Kadji Care, Punit Nagar
Kadji Care in Punit Nagar is a rehabilitation and assisted living centre run by Kadji Care and Rehabs Pvt Ltd, the group founded by Dr. Nikunj Chavda. It is built for long-term support of seniors with complex conditions.
Its listing names dementia and Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, recovery after a stroke and tracheostomy care. Tracheostomy care is the detail that stands out: not every care home is set up to manage a breathing tube safely day and night. Each resident has an individual care plan combining medical supervision, physical therapy and cognitive engagement, so a stroke survivor works on mobility while a resident with memory loss follows activities that keep the mind active.
Daily care covers personal hygiene, health monitoring, emergency response, palliative care and post-hospital recovery, with trained caregivers on every shift. Meals follow specialised diet plans, which matters for residents with diabetes, swallowing difficulty or tube feeding. Rooms are furnished and wheelchair accessible, with a garden, Wi-Fi and power backup. Families often choose it when a parent has been in an ICU or a long hospital stay and the next step is not yet home, but a ward bed is no longer needed. Before admission, the team will usually want the discharge summary, the current medicine chart and details of any feeding or breathing support.
