Shield Foundation (India)

Dr. Rajesh Desai and the Shield Foundation paramedical team conducted in-home medical checkups for bedridden patients at Vashi Naka, ensuring that those unable to travel receive the care and attention they deserve.

Through door-to-door visits, the team provided health assessments, symptom management, treatment guidance, medication support, and emotional care for patients and their families.

This initiative reflects our commitment to making healthcare accessible, compassionate, and inclusive — because quality healthcare should reach everyone, especially those who need it the most.

Every journey towards a better future begins with a single conversation. 💙

Our mobilizers are actively working across Matunga Labour Camp and Dharavi, connecting with families, understanding their aspirations, and introducing students to opportunities through our GD&A Nursing Program.

By visiting communities and building trust, they help young individuals take the first step towards skill development, employment, and a brighter future.

Together, we are paving the way for skilled careers and brighter futures in healthcare.

On 12th May, we celebrated Nurses Day with gratitude and appreciation for the incredible dedication, compassion, and hard work of nurses who tirelessly serve society.

The celebration at Vashinaka, Chembur recognized the vital role nurses play in healthcare and patient care. It was a meaningful occasion filled with appreciation, learning, and encouragement for aspiring healthcare professionals.

Happy Nurses Day to all the healthcare heroes who continue to care with kindness and commitment.

Our nursing students recently participated in an exposure visit to a Children Hospital to gain practical insights into pediatric healthcare and clinical practices. 🏥✨

The visit provided students with hands-on learning experiences, helping bridge the gap between classroom knowledge and real-world patient care. It also enhanced their confidence, professional understanding, and awareness of career opportunities in the healthcare sector.

Such exposure visits play an important role in preparing students for future careers while helping them develop practical skills essential for the nursing profession.

At Shield Foundation’s Dharavi Centre, we empower young individuals to achieve financial independence through focused vocational training programs. Designed for holistic growth, our courses combine technical skills with confidence-building.

The program includes 4 months of training (4 hours daily), followed by 1 month of On-the-Job Training, along with strong placement support. Spoken English and soft skills training further prepare candidates for professional success.

With courses in ITES BPO, BUSY Software, and Customer Relationship & Sales, we are creating job-ready individuals and transforming lives through skill development.
