The Second major project of organization is NESAM SENIOR CITIZEN’S LOVABLE NEST(Home). Due to ever increasing trend of nuclear families, elder care management is getting more difficult, especially for working adult children who find themselves responsible for their parents well being. Managing home care for the elderly is a massive challenge as multiple service providers nursing agencies, physiotherapists and medical suppliers are small, unorganized players who extend sub - optimal care. As per the 52nd round of National Sample Survey Organization, nearly half of the elderly are fully depend on others, while another 20 percent are partially dependant on others for their economic needs. About 85% of the aged had to depend on others, for their day to day maintenance. The situation is even worse for elderly females. Elderly often do not have financial protection such as sufficient pension and other form of social security in India.  The single most pressing challenge to the welfare of older person is poverty, which is a multiplier of risk for abuse.
