Working at hospital is a rare and firsthand experience to the volunteers. If you are from the medical background, if you are practicing the nursing, it may be the good place to volunteer to sharpen and practically involve on the actual basis. Therefore, we want to care those patients with the help of volunteers who are interested, enthusiastic and experienced in this field of interest. The volunteers will be placed at the public hospital. Now, we are working and placing the volunteers in Siddhi Memorial hospital in Bhaktpur district.
Working in Senior People Home.
Nepalese social values and ideals have been eroded with introduction of materialistic culture of Nepal which has shaken the foundation of Nepalese culture and joint family system. Consequently, senior citizens of today are bound to lead the life of seclusion, the deserted life and they are aloof because of the fact that neither their offspring nor the government takes any adequate responsibility to take care of them in their old age. Now, we are tied up with one senior people home in Sindhupalchok District named Chautara Briddhashram as our sister organization.
We are also giving priority to the senior people’s home for the placements of the volunteers. The senior people who were once the pillars and the stars of the nation should not be ignored. It is the universal truth that once one is born, s/he is to die. It is natural that one gets older as the time runs continuously and without the exhaustion. The family system has been drastically changed nowadays because of the influence of the westernization. It is need of the time and because of the high competition in each and every field, the son and the daughter who want to be with their parents and want to take care cannot do so. Therefore, it is an obligation that they have to keep their parents where their parents can be taken care as if they are the son and daughter. It is a great opportunity for the volunteers to share and care to those people and condenses their experience which ultimately provides them the satisfaction
How do volunteers get involved?
The volunteers can visit the home that is not far away from the capital city, it is just 3-4 hours driving from Kathmandu. Then they see the condition, they are suggested to decide the things themselves. They can take care of the old people and even they can take hand to hand with them because they are the pillar of the nation once and have rich ocean of knowledge and experience. If they want, they can suggest the mismanaged home to manage it properly.
We are now placing the volunteers both in and out of Kathmandu valley.
