New Delhi, Feb 26: With India’s elderly population projected to reach nearly 20% of the total population by 2050—and the 60+ segment growing the fastest—Pacific OneHealth has recently launched its flagship Senior Care+ Membership Programme at a time when experts describe a demographic shift of historic proportions. National datasets such as LASI reveal that nearly 45% of elders suffer from hypertension, 11% from diabetes, 24% struggle with daily activities, and 27% report unmet healthcare needs—underlining the urgent need for integrated, community‑driven elder care systems.

Against this backdrop, Senior Care+ has been designed as a comprehensive, dignity-led model that integrates preventive screening, geriatric assessment, home care, teleconsultation, physiotherapy, remote monitoring, and emergency support, moving beyond episodic treatment toward holistic ageing support.

Mr Saket Bansal, Founder & Executive Director, Pacific OneHealth says,

“India is ageing faster than our healthcare systems are adapting. Senior Care+ is our response to this reality. It is not a product—it is a promise. A promise that elder care must be proactive, personalised, and rooted in dignity. We are integrating preventive screening, home-based services, teleconsultation, and emergency support into one seamless membership model so that elders experience continuity—not fragmentation—of care. The future of healthcare lies in neighbourhood hospitals that combine technology with compassion. Senior Care+ is our step toward building that ecosystem.”

Dr. G. S. Grewal, Former President, Delhi Medical Association; Director, Senior Care+ program, Pacific OneHealth describes what India is experiencing, and says,

 “A tsunami of elderly widows, with women over 75 living nearly four years longer than men. Many grew up believing their role was only to serve, making it difficult to now demand rights. Studies show 45–55% of elders face neglect or abuse, often subtle, such as delayed medicines or postponed doctor visits. Elder care has shifted from dependence to participation, institutionalisation to ageing at home, and medical treatment alone to holistic wellness. Senior Care+ integrates social health, geriatric syndromes, caregiver training, and shared decision‑making, celebrating ageing as wisdom with dignity and joy.”

Pacific OneHealth’s Senior Care+ offers an annual membership that delivers comprehensive elder‑focused services, including geriatric assessments, an 87‑parameter premium health check‑up, home visits by trained health executives, remote nurse monitoring, GP consultations at home and centre, teleconsultations, physiotherapy and nutrition consults, second opinions, and a digital health vault. Members also receive ambulance and emergency support, priority access with a dedicated GRO‑W coordinator, premium lounge facilities, and discounts across diagnostics, pharmacy, physiotherapy, home care, and family add‑ons.

Dr. Swadeep Srivastava, Co-Founder & President, Pacific OneHealth, says,

“The need to support elders who once supported us, stressing that health in later years is a shared responsibility. Beyond medicines, elders require companionship, dignity, and reassurance. Senior Care+ addresses neglected pillars—social health and geriatric syndromes—through comprehensive assessments, OPD and home services, teleconsultation, remote monitoring, and caregiver support. The program builds an ecosystem where age signifies experience, not limitation, preserving self‑respect and ensuring hospitals feel like homes of compassionate care.”

The launch of Pacific OneHealth Senior Care+ Membership Programme happened at the HEAL OneHealth Connect Series, alongside a panel discussion on ‘Rehumanizing Elder Care: Bridging the Empathy Gap with Smart, Neighbourhood Hospitals.’ Prof. (Dr.) Nimesh G. Desai, Former Director, IHBAS, Dr. Aijaz Ilmi, Head – Preventive Medicine, Pacific OneHealth, and Dr. Vikrant Bhardwaj, Director – Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation, Pacific OneHealth participated in the engaging discussion.

The panellists emphasised that elder care must move from institutional dependency to neighbourhood-based, empathy-driven ecosystems that support “ageing at home.”
