Saturday, 28 March 2015, 11:47 Last update: about 10 years ago

Hilltop Gardens Retirement Village is a new concept in Malta that challenges the local stereotypes on ageing and acknowledges the huge contribution that people in later life can make to their communities.

Hilltop Gardens Retirement Village, due to become operational in the last quarter of 2015, aims to address this changing reality by creating an inspiring community for the elderly who want more from their retirement. In line with the EU strategy of active ageing, the concept promotes the process of optimising opportunities for health, participation and security in order to enhance quality of life as people age.

With this concept in mind, Hilltop Gardens will be offering elderly residents the best of retirement living combined with an independent lifestyle designed around them to create a unique active ageing experience. Hilltop Gardens offers 150 units in a 17,000 square meter development in beautiful surroundings close to the heart of Naxxar.

In addition, keeping in mind that residents’ needs and dependency change over time peace of mind will be offered by customised clinical and domiciliary care provided by the qualified clinicians, nursing staff and allied health professionals employed by the Village. Care plans will be tailored to meet the specific needs of each individual, ensuring multidisciplinary yet personalised and community based care.

Hilltop Gardens will be catering for independent and assisted living individuals who are over 60 years of age. The idea behind the provision of assisted daily living services is to offer a lifestyle alternative for independently minded older people with care needs who want to remain in their own property, by providing a wide range of hotel-type services as well as at-home care support from our on-site professional team.

The guarantee of Optimal Quality Care was today added to the vision and mission of Hilltop Gardens’ retirement village. Honouring Age and Rendering Choice which is the essence of Hilltop Gardens’ mission, has today twinned with the mark of excellence which is Caremark’s hallmark.

This was the main message underpinning the Press Conference held by the management of Hilltop Gardens, when they announced the signing of an MOU agreement with Caremark, a leading international care company. The cornerstone for efficient and effective sharing and optimization of cross border talent, experience and expertise has essentially been laid with the signing of this agreement. Caremark has today committed to applying its legacy of excellent care provision to yet another successful initiative of AX Holdings, Hilltop Gardens Retirement Village.

Hilltop Gardens has already gathered the interest of many who wish to invest in a beautiful, respectable safe retirement environment for themselves or their loved ones. The guarantee of excellent care provision, through the carefully selected as well as adequately and appropriately trained staff of Caremark will increase the interest of the local individuals and others from overseas.

The management of AX Holdings and Caremark spoke about their respective commitment to this innovative initiative which guarantees high quality community care.

Moreover, Dr Caruana vouched full support to this initiative which in essence mirrored the strategy that government has adopted towards the enhanced provision of care to the elderly.
