Why Care Fails in India

Understand the systemic reasons why caregiving often fails in India, including lack of coordination, informal support structures, and absence of monitoring.

The Problem is Not Lack of Care. It is Lack of Structure.

India has strong family values and healthcare resources.

Yet, care often fails.
