Cared Senior Living in Westerwatering is a new residential format where senior citizens can live independently, while still having access to support and meeting places in the same building. On Saturday, 11 March 2017, the former Westerwatering nursing home in Zaandam was officially opened with this new residential format. This type of housing is intended for senior citizens who want to continue to live independently, while still having access to homecare in a safe, sheltered environment.
