Programmes for Elders
District
Pondicherry
States
Puducherry
Responding to societal changes such as urbanization and modernization, joint families have disintegrated, leaving older members neglected. Busy lives and insensitivity lead to elders being abandoned or voluntarily seeking refuge in old age homes. These homes serve as shelters for seniors facing solitude in their twilight years. Staff tend to their medical needs, provide nourishment, and assist with daily tasks. Recreational activities foster a sense of community, combating loneliness. Support for elders includes facilitating Government programs, operating old age homes, forming self-help groups, initiating income generation programmes, and organising medical support and camps.
