EXTENDING A HELPLINE TO THE ELDERLY TO COPE WITH COVID 19

Elderly are most at risk during current Covid Crisis from the standpoint of infection, mortality as well as hardships given their limitations and dependence on others. They face a no. of challenges due to lockdown as well as psychological stress from fear of contracting the infection. Indications are that elderly will need to stay home for a longer period even after the current lockdown ends

We are supporting elderly citizens in cities across India through a free helpline to help them stay safely at home with their essential needs met during this period of crisis.
We are helped by a network of stakeholders, delivery partners & volunteers, integrated and managed by our team. 

The helpline service is free and accessible to all elderly. Those who can afford it, pay actual costs and for others, we leverage the support of NGOs & local voluntary initiatives. 

Apart from calling location specific numbers, you can register any senior citizen for elder care support by clicking here

इस उमर में बिना दवाइयों के जीवन हाथ से छूटा दिखता है. हेल्पलाइन की कोशिश से मुझे और मेरी पत्नी के जीवन को सहारा मिला. दवाइयाँ हमारे घर तक पहूचाई गयी
