Sampoorna by Deepjyoti India, a Mumbai-based NGO founded by the visionary Mrs. Deepjyoti Garg has been making significant strides in the field of social empowerment since its establishment last year. With robust credentials, including 12A, 80G certification, CSR compliance, and NITI Aayog registration, Sampoorna is dedicated to creating meaningful change in society.
Under the dynamic leadership of Mrs. Deepjyoti Garg and Program Director Amrita Borkotoky, the organization focused on empowering young women, enhancing their mental health, and fostering confidence for a better future. In an inspiring move, Sampoorna has now expanded its initiatives to care for senior citizens in Guwahati, Assam, recognizing the growing need for healthcare and emotional support for the elderly.
Sampoorna has recently launched regular health camps in 2024 across three old age homes in Guwahati city, including:
Pramod Memorial Old Age Home, Beltola
Senior Citizens Old Age Home, Hatigaon
Seneh – Bhabadadevi Memorial Home
Sampoorna organized 6 health camps in total last year, and it provided a wide range of essential health services, including:
General health checkups with blood tests for glucose levels, blood pressure, and other key indicators
Eye camps for vision assessment,
ENT checkups to address ear, nose, and throat concerns,
Dermatology camps to treat skin-related issues,
Yoga and wellness sessions promote physical and mental well-being,
These health camps have had a profound impact, ensuring early detection and treatment of ailments, improved health management, and greater awareness among the elderly residents.
Adding a unique dimension to their efforts, Sampoorna collaborated with the Assam Clowning Academy to introduce medical clowning therapy. This joyful and therapeutic activity brought smiles and emotional relief to senior citizens, reducing loneliness and fostering a sense of community.
These camps bring together experienced doctors who provide essential health checkups, ensuring the physical well-being of elderly residents. The camps have already had a positive impact, with senior citizens reporting better management of chronic health conditions, timely medical intervention, and improved overall health awareness.
.“We have seen tremendous improvements in the happiness and well-being of senior citizens through these initiatives,” said Mrs. Garg. “Medical clowning combined with regular health camps has made a remarkable difference, bringing joy and dignity back into the lives of many.”
Looking forward, Sampoorna by Deepjyoti India plans to conduct monthly health camps to ensure sustained healthcare support for these elderly homes.
Beyond its elderly care programs, Sampoorna remains steadfast in its commitment to empowering women, focusing on their mental health and helping them lead to confident and fulfilling lives.
Sampoorna by Deepjyoti India exemplifies the power of collective effort, striving to bring happiness, dignity, and better health to every life it touches.
