Family Survival Kits
This includes basic ration like Atta (Wheat flour), Dal (pulses) Spices, Sugar, cooking oil along with Corona protective gear like masks, bathing and washing soaps, detergent etc. for disadvantaged elders and their family.
Elder Helpline
(1800-180-1253) which rescues of abandoned elders, deals with cases of abuse and abandonment, provides groceries and medication to elders during the lockdown, counsels those in distress, information related to services available etc. The helpline works as the co-ordination unit linking elders to various institutions such as old age homes, hospitals, geriatric specialists, police, government etc.

Free Medicines and Healthcare
In many states our Mobile Healthcare Unit (MHU) teams are reaching out to elder beneficiaries suffering from chronic ailments and delivering them their much-needed medications, through home visits and within their community. In some areas, our Mobile Healthcare Units, are operating as an ambulance as per the request of district officers and local authorities are transporting patients to hospitals for their treatments and check-ups. Each MHU has a doctor, pharmacist and a social worker. The Unit also educates and makes elders & their family members aware of the preventive measures in case of diseases such as COVID etc. We have nearly 160 MHUs spread across the country. Many elders also cannot afford to go to private hospitals or walk long distances to the local Primacy Healthcare centre or Govt hospitals, where the lines are invariably long and they are unable to stand. This MHU is their only source of free healthcare, helping them live a healthy and dignified life.
