The JSPL Foundation observed the World Elder Abuse Awareness Day in different plant periphery villages and at a few Senior Citizen Homes of Angul district.
Several awareness sessions were organised to educate the participants regarding the scenario where the elderly people in the family or society are neglected or abused physically or mentally.
Apart from need based support to the Senior Citizen Homes of the locality, the JSPL Foundation is also running special project like “Swasti” to improve the health condition of the elderly persons by providing a customised healthcare van to address the physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing of the people at their door-step.
The foundation also runs a telemedicine centre and Swasti centre at Jamunda jungle of Banarpal block to address the health issues of nearby villagers, where most of the elderly people are visiting regularly to take proper doctor’s consultation, medicines and physiotherapy from expert doctors and therapists.
