IDILA TERZIEVA

What IDILA TERZIEVA does

Idila Terzieva (legal name Дом за стари лица Идила Терзиева / Home for the Elderly Idila Terzieva) is a privately held, family-owned residential elderly care nursing home located in the Radisani area approximately 8 kilometers from central Skopje, North Macedonia. Founded in 1996 by the Terzieva family based on five years of expertise gained from British nursing homes, the facility serves senior citizens and individuals with dementia, operating the country's first specialized dementia care center. The single-site operation accommodates up to 43 residents across 38 rooms and 5 apartments, with an additional smaller building housing laundry, administrative offices, a hairdressing salon, and a caregiver licensing school.

The facility's service portfolio is integrated rather than modular, spanning accommodation, 24-hour medical care with on-site doctors and visiting specialists, personalized physical therapy, three daily home-cooked meals designed with nutritionist input, a structured activities and events program, and a healthy aging curriculum. The specialized dementia center adds dementia-adapted accommodation, occupational therapy, music therapy, art therapy, and nature walks for residents with Alzheimer's, vascular dementia, Lewy Body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Physical infrastructure includes a 1,600 m² main building, a 5,000 m² landscaped courtyard with gardens, fountains, gazebos, and an orchard, plus amenities such as cable TV, Wi-Fi, SOS calling systems, and a specialized medical transport vehicle. A caregiver training school on site, verified by the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Macedonia, supports both internal staffing and broader workforce development in partnership with the NGO Humanost.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer, subscription-style recurring revenue model, with residents (or their families) paying for long-term residential stays. Customer acquisition is primarily through word-of-mouth referrals from existing residents and their families, supported by a bilingual Macedonian/English website, a Facebook page, and a YouTube channel. There are no disclosed enterprise contracts, insurance partnerships, or government reimbursement arrangements. The company is led by Director Meri Terzieva, with Elena Gjorevska serving alongside as Director, and employs approximately 30 staff across medical, therapeutic, caregiving, kitchen, hygiene, and administrative functions. No external investors, funding rounds, or parent company ownership has been disclosed.
