Rehabilitation

Chiranthana provides Physiotherapy sessions to people with special needs at the model center at Gubbi. These sessions are a part of the Rehabilitation program run by Chiranthana. Through these physiotherapy sessions, we are able to impact the most remote corners of Gubbi taluk.

Physiotherapy is used as a mode of intervention to help improve the conditions of a child that are a result of causes beyond the control of the child or his caregivers. The physiotherapist works on a range of functional abilities such as coordination and development of physical skills and motor abilities.

We have also established a physio station at our Bangalore center with various equipment meant to help people with special needs.

Employment

Chiranthana is committed to working towards improving the lives of people with special needs. We provide Artisanship training to people with special needs and are also employing them after a training period of two months as per their skill sets. People with autism are good at sequencing, patterns and are therefore more suitable to jobs with repetitive patterns likewise, People with Down syndrome can get very creative with their hands. Based on the assessment of their skill sets and their inclination, we train people with special needs for jobs. We are also helping the caregivers of people with special needs by employing them to make products.

We are impacting the lives of more than 30 people through this program. We have trained the mothers of people with special needs in making macrame products and they have also been trained in tailoring. This employment opportunity has given me confidence and has provided the caregivers of people with special needs with the necessary support. This has helped empower women in Gubbi.
