The Sakhi4Life Way
Building relationships on understanding and trust
At Sakhi4Life, we take the time and effort to first understand your needs. We then match you with the most suited care but making sure that you – the elder who needs care, the caregiver and our founders are always part of the process.
Discovering your needs
During the first contact – by phone, mail or in person, we understand your specific situation. We then map your needs according to your specific situation, ie. Elders living alone, with children, health conditions, mental health of the person needing support, and other specific expectations.
Finding your match
We carefully shortlist a Sakhi Counsellor who is a right match with the senior person with regards to age, language and cultural background. Sakhi Executives are assigned if the elder needs help with errands and at-home services unrelated to health care. Sakhi Companions are provided if the elder requires a friendly listening ear and friendship. We also cater to special requests based on specific situations.
Keeping you updated
The Sakhi Counsellor also sets up a WhatsApp group comprising of themselves, you, and one of Sakhi4Life’s founders to ensure seamless communication. If needed, we can also facilitate video calls between you and the elder concerned. We update you on the phone or mail about the results of each visit.
Testimonials
What our clients say
After two and a half months of lockdown, I was desperate for a haircut. It wasn’t safe for me to go to a salon. That’s when I remembered Sakhi4Life. Picked up the hair dresser, brought him over, supervised disinfection of implements, & stayed till the job was done. Rajesh Kumar (name changed on request) After two and a half months of lockdown, I was now desperate for a haircut. Thankfully, saloons were about to open, but would it be safe? Should I risk spending an hour in an enclosed space with dozens of saloon staff and their customers? Without air-conditioning in the heat of June? That’s when I remembered Sakhi4Life. Suchint was simply amazing. She immediately identified the terrace of my building as the safest and most comfortable venue. And identified a professional hair dresser as concerned about hygiene and safety as I am. The Sakhi executive took care of everything. Picked up the hair dresser, brought him over, supervised the disinfection of the implements, and stayed till the job was done to my satisfaction. All in the safe and convenient outdoor environment of my own terrace! Thank you Sakhi.
