School students into Palliation - The Summer Field School, Kailash Colony, Delhi

When the summer vacation is nearing most of the students are planning to spend their holidays merrily at different locations of their choice.  Those who are into coaching classes for entrance examinations are also busy altogether.  However, the choice of Class 11 Biology students of The Summer Field School, Kailash Colony, Delhi is a varied one, which is to serve the ailing long term, bedridden, terminally ill patients including Cancer Patients requiring Palliative Care.  An orientation campaign on the Palliative discipline was held for these students in their school by the volunteers of DNipCare. 

Shri Suresh Thaliyaril, the Florence Nightingale award winning Male Nurse of Safdarjung Hospital and Prof. Javed Hussain of Nano Technology, Aligarh Muslim University spoke on the occasion.  A presentation on the Palliative psycho-social and medical home care has also been made for the students. 

Seema Mittal, Mansha Bhagai, Seema Prasad etc., the Volunteers of DNipCare coordinated the program.  The students will now be rendering Palliative Care for the ailing patients under the directions of multi-disciplinary teams of DNipCare beginning from this summer vacation and thereafter.  Photographs of the program are also attached please.

With warm regards,
