About Us
SOUL PALLIATIVE CARE
Soul Palliative Care is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO)/Voluntary Organization (VO)/Non-Profit Organisation (NPO). A non-profit organization that operates independently of any government, typically one whose purpose is to address a social issue. It was started as an organization that prevents and alleviates suffering by recognizing, assessing, and treating pain and other symptoms that may be physical or psychosocial or spiritual. Patients in the Tamil Nadu districts of Chengalpattu, Kancheepuram, Chennai, Thiruvallur and Ranipet have been receiving palliative treatment from Soul Palliative Care since 2018. As part of our home care services, which are not restricted to clinical treatment, we also give food kits (monthly) to patients and their families who are in need. As part of our palliative care services, we also provide patients with assistive devices, medical supplies and any form of support for their children and caregivers.
