Transit homes for cancer patients & others in need
Tertiary healthcare facilities for cancer are mostly located in major cities of the country. Patients in large numbers visit these cities for advanced treatment creating an undue financial burden on families, thus leaving them with a shortage of resources for further treatment.
Apna Ghar is creating an enabling environment around patients by providing:
• A comfortable stay during the tenure of their treatment
• Providing nutritious and hygienic food
• Transportation facility to-and-from Apna Ghar to treating hospitals
• Psychosocial guidance & counselling
• Awareness of various government and charitable programs
• Activities for physical & mental well-being
Working to ensure that
every person has the opportunity to
survive and thrive
