“Home, where the right to good quality of living is every human’s birthright.”
Lantern differentiates itself and stands apart from other facilities because of its unique offering- Fountain Of Life. Two offerings titled “Brain Power” and “Svayus” are the centerfold of the Fountain of Life program. This state-of-the-art program is offered for the first time in the country. This program was created and designed after extensive research. These offerings are client and family-based. These two offerings are designed to facilitate and promote healthy aging. These programs focus on activities and behaviors that will integrate clients and families to increase life expectancy. Science has proven over and again that activity in the brain, mind, and body facilitates and promotes a healthy aging process.
