For people who want to care for their elders living in Pune, but cannot be there, every day.
Pune has quietly become one of India's biggest retirement cities, but the city's calm pace can be deceptive. Without someone actively checking in, a health issue can sit unnoticed for weeks, especially the kind that doesn't have obvious symptoms early on. Samarth's local care managers visit in person, catching what a weekly phone call would miss, while letting a parent keep running their own household on their own terms.

When living alone didn't mean feeling alone
“As my mother lives alone, having a reliable, kind, and compassionate care counsellor has made a tremendous difference in her quality of life, and Vijayji has been all that and more. She assists with routine and ad-hoc visits, and offers companionship and reassurance. Regular check-ins from Monaji added to this deeply positive impact.”

"If something unfortunate happens, like going to the hospital, talking to the doctor, and giving all the information to the children who are far away, it's important that Care Managers are educated, knowledgeable about the process, able to escalate if something has not been done, and able to provide the right information to the children."

Founded in 2016 by alumni of IIT, IIM, Cambridge, Yale and McKinsey, Samarth was born from a personal crisis. When a Founder’s father suffered a stroke in Dehradun, he was in a different city with no system in place to help. Samarth is what they built in response.
Samarth Care's app is undeniably a game changer in elder care. It's incredible to see how technology is paving the way for quick and efficient emergency response, keeping families connected even from miles away.
Not at all, this worry is more common than you think. Many families approach this crossroads when the children must move away for personal or professional reasons and their parents don’t want to leave the house and the town they have lived in for decades. Hiring professional help to oversee your parents well-being doesn’t mean that you’re any less of a responsible child, in fact the opposite can be argued. Professional care services like Samarth simply step in in a logistical, physical capacity – your family is still the one making all the decisions and being informed every step of the way.
