At SAARTHI, we believe 'Care without compassion' is incomplete.

• Companionship and emotional support through the course of treatment
• Assistance with daily activities — bathing, dressing, mobility, and meals
• Help with scheduling and escorting to hospital/clinic visits
• Comfort and rest support on chemotherapy or radiation days
• Light household support so family members can focus on care decisions
• Regular updates shared with family on day-to-day wellbeing

Scope: our caregivers do not administer medication, interpret test results, or make treatment decisions — these remain with the patient's oncology team.

• Escort and transport coordination to and from dialysis sessions
• Companionship during waiting and treatment hours
• Comfort support after each session — rest and hydration reminders as guided by the doctor
• Daily living assistance on the days between sessions
• A steady communication link between family and hospital staff
• Prompt flagging of any visible discomfort to family and clinical staff

Scope: the dialysis procedure itself and all clinical monitoring is handled solely by qualified hospital/clinic staff.

• GDA: assistance with daily activities during recovery — mobility, hygiene, meals
• GDA: companionship through the recovery period at home
• GDA: medication reminders on the doctor's schedule (reminders only — not administration)
• Nurse: dressing changes, wound care, and medication administration where the doctor's plan requires it
• GDA: escort to follow-up appointments
• GDA: regular recovery updates shared with family

Scope: any hands-on clinical task — wound care, dressing changes, administering medication — is done only by our Nurse, never by a GDA.

• Scheduling and escorting patients to doctor appointments
• Staying with the patient throughout hospital visits
• Helping relay information clearly between patient, family, and hospital staff
• Assistance with hospital paperwork and day-to-day logistics
• Transport coordination to and from appointments
• Calm companionship that eases the stress of hospital visits

Scope: caregivers accompany and assist — all clinical questions are directed to the treating doctor.

• Assessment of mobility, pain, and recovery needs at the first home visit
• A personalised treatment and exercise plan designed by the physiotherapist
• Hands-on therapy sessions conducted directly by the physiotherapist at home
• Ongoing progress tracking, with the plan adjusted as recovery advances
• Coordination with the treating doctor on recovery milestones
• Guidance for family on supporting the patient safely between sessions

Scope: physiotherapy is performed only by our qualified, licensed physiotherapists — distinct from our non-medical caregiver support.

• GDA: immediate companionship and support following an accident or injury
• GDA: assistance with daily activities during the recovery period
• GDA: escort to hospital and follow-up clinic visits
• GDA: emotional support for both patient and family during a stressful time

• GDA: gentle, patient reminders and reassurance suited to memory changes
• GDA: assistance with daily activities — bathing, dressing, meals, mobility
• GDA: safety supervision to reduce the risk of wandering or falls
• GDA: calm, repeated communication support, without rushing or correcting
• Nurse: medication administration and monitoring, where the doctor's plan requires it

Scope: diagnosis, cognitive assessments, and treatment planning remain with the treating neurologist or geriatrician.

• GDA: companionship adapted to the individual's current stage of the disease
• GDA: support with daily routines, orientation cues (calendars, clocks, familiar objects), and structure
• GDA: assistance with personal care — bathing, dressing, feeding
• GDA: safety supervision, including fall and wandering prevention
• GDA: calm, patient engagement suited to changing communication ability

Note: Alzheimer's is a specific, progressive disease and the leading cause of dementia. Diagnosis and treatment planning remain with the treating doctor.

• GDA: companionship and mobility assistance suited to tremor and balance difficulty
• GDA: fall-prevention support and safe movement around the home
• GDA: assistance with daily activities — dressing, bathing, meals — allowing extra time as needed
• GDA: escort to neurologist and physiotherapy appointments
• GDA: medication-timing reminders, since Parkinson's medication often runs on a strict schedule
• Nurse: medication administration and monitoring, where the doctor's plan requires it

Note: Parkinson's is primarily a movement disorder, distinct from dementia and Alzheimer's. Diagnosis and dosage remain with the treating neurologist.
