The team has been running the skill development programme since 2015, and ever since then has trained more than 1000 youth to become competent caregivers. At least 70% of the trained workforce gets employed, which not only improves their financial condition, but also works as a catalyst to boost their confidence, dignity and self-esteem. For those, who do not opt for employment, it is a skill that can be used at any stage in life, either for their family members or neighbourhood.
The skill development model adopted includes upgraded and advanced courses for such candidates who want to retain themselves in hospital based care. Once educated and skilled as hospital assistants, the energy and enthusiasm of such youth is harnessed alongside the medical and supervisory teams.
