Update on ‘Geriatric care specialist development programme’
(Project # 64097 from Balajothi Centre for the Disabled)
Funding goal :$10,00,000 / Funds raised to date :$70
Project Report due date : Aug 30, 2024 / Report sent on Aug 17, 2024
Balajothi Centre for the Disabled Trust, a dedicated non-profit organization based in Bengaluru, India, believes in the essential role of creating well-trained caregivers to provide quality service and dignity of life to seniors in their last days. We seek to empower individuals from diverse backgrounds, to pursue fulfilling careers in geriatric care through comprehensive training and support. We also aim to enhance seniors' quality of life by promoting home-caregiving as a viable career option.
Through this project we aim to train educated candidates who will be trained to play the role of caregivers to seniors, thus reducing the pressure and burden on families. Selected candidates will be provided in-house theoretical and practical training, entirely free, at the end of which they will return to their villages and apply themselves in serving the seniors and the profoundly disabled persons. These candidates will be paid stipend during training and salary on completion.
Long-Term Impact
Balajothi Center for the Disabled (BCD) focuses on providing compassionate and inspiring care to elderly individuals in need of geriatric care. It primarily aims to enhance the competency of professional caregivers and includes home care, day care, assisted living and community living. By leveraging technology, BCD aims to foster a safe and productive life for the elderly and their families while constantly improving caregiving skills, quality of delivery and lasting impact to beneficiaries.
