Building a Compassionate Care Community

To build a long-lasting and sustainable care ecosystem, Karunyam trains community members in palliative care principles. These programs empower ordinary individuals to become compassionate caregivers and active contributors to the well-being of their neighbours.

Basics of palliative care

Our training covers the essential principles of palliative care to provide compassionate, patient-centered support. Participants learn how to address both physical and emotional needs effectively.

Communication and empathy-building

We teach techniques for active listening and empathetic interactions with patients and families. Strong communication skills help build trust and emotional comfort.

Handling patients safely

Caregivers learn safe techniques for mobility, transfers, and daily care tasks. Proper handling reduces the risk of injury for both patients and caregivers.

Psychosocial support and community engagement

We emphasize the importance of emotional support and connecting with the broader community. Engaged caregivers can help reduce isolation and improve overall well-being for patients.
