A free hospice in Bengaluru for people with advanced cancer, with a 73-bed inpatient unit and home-care teams that visit patients across the city.
Karunashraya, run by the Bangalore Hospice Trust, provides free palliative care to people with advanced cancer who are beyond curative treatment. It has a 73-bed inpatient facility on the Old Airport-Varthur Road; the building is listed in the Phaidon Atlas of 20th Century World Architecture.
Karunashraya says it was the first hospice in India to provide free home care for terminally ill cancer patients; since home care began in 1994 it has cared for more than 5,000 patients and has about 50 under its care at any time. It trains young women from low-income families as nursing aides with a monthly stipend, runs an education and research arm (KIPCER) and its website links to Bagchi Karunashraya in Odisha.
