MND Perspectives: Senior healthcare in Mexico

In this episode of the MND Perspectives podcast, we explore a nascent but high-potential market: senior healthcare services in Mexico. With over 1.6 million U.S. citizens and thousands of Canadians — many retirees — calling Mexico home, demand for affordable, high-quality senior living and care is surging. Yet, supply remains scarce, and the sector faces challenges such as language barriers, staff training, and specialized medical care.

We also discuss why Mexico, with its young workforce, lower costs, and cultural respect for elders, is well-positioned to meet this need. Plus, we reflect on how this opportunity aligns with broader economic trends, including the rising costs of health care in the U.S. and Canada and the growing expat community.

  1. 5 minutes into this podcast and lots of questions but no answers. Yeah is not a word I want to hear every 15 seconds… so annoying…. I see no reason to listen to any more of this. This is a newspaper, print!

  2. Thanks for your feedback.

    We are using new technology to summarise existing MND content that may have been missed by some of our subscribers, in an accessible podcast form. While we understand that while many of our subscribers prefer the written word, we have received plenty of positive feedback and look forward to continuing to improve our output with every new episode.

  3. I look forward to hearing this podcast updated in five years. Right now it tells me nothing. Possibly use information from other sources than MWD to broaden the podcast’s content.

    I like the idea of the new podcast and hope it continues to cover events in Mexico affecting expats; keep it going and keep improving it.

Beyond the Día de Muertos parade, there's lots going on in the capital in November, including a new Museo Tamayo exhibit, a puppet show for families, Giselle at Bellas Artes and a trip to the Mexica land of the dead.
