NMT's VISION 2030

SMRITI GRAM 

There are over 8.8 million people are affected by dementia in India. Though families are the primary carers, in the advanced stage of the disease, residential care centres play a significant role. Old Age Homes and Hospitals are generally not equipped to handle persons with dementia. Professional and trained caregivers are difficult to find and institutional care support is also woefully lacking and hence the family suffers more than the patients. Cost of dementia care is generally not affordable for due to high patient-caregiver ratio and no subsidies from the government. Therefore, there is a big need to develop an effective support system suitable for India which should be affordable without compromising on the quality of care.

Smriti Gram is a holistic approach to dementia care, offering a supportive and safe environment where patients can lead fulfilling lives. By creating such a facility, Nightingales Medical Trust will set a precedent in India, demonstrating a commitment to innovative and person-centered care for dementia patients. NMT’s plan to establish a 300 bed Dementia Village is a step towards ensuring that individuals from all backgrounds receive specialized care, support, and treatment. 100 beds will be earmarked for persons from economically weaker backgrounds, and care will be provided free of cost.
