Events

17th December 2019 - Varishta visited Shama College of Nursing, Ahmedabad, Gujarat. An awareness session for the nursing students was conducted by Daksha Bhat. The invaluable assistance of Shital Khetani and Meena Patel made it possible to arrange this successful event. It is important for nurses to develop an early understanding in the difference that dementia brings to caregiving. Ahmedabad needs more nurses who understand Dementia, and we hope we have contributed to making that happen.

We are thankful to Mrs. Suman Patel, the principal of Shama Nursing College for her help, and the nursing students for their interest in the subject.
