General tips for locating relevant resources:
  • A list of local services can usually be obtained by surfing the Internet using keywords and the name of the city, such as “home nursing Mumbai”, “dementia care Mumbai”, “old age homes Mumbai.”
  • Combine your search string with various versions of the city name in searches, such as Mumbai, Greater Mumbai, Navi Mumbai. So, a search could be “old age homes Mumbai” or “dementia navi Mumbai”
  • The larger hospitals of the city will usually have memory clinics to help the initial diagnosis of a patient. Search for “memory clinic Mumbai” and other such phrases.
  • The reception/ nurses at local hospitals often know about agencies that supply attendants/ nurses for home care.
  • Many large path lab services also provide home pickup of blood samples.
