Noorahealth

Noora Health’s mission is to improve outcomes and strengthen health systems by equipping family caregivers with the skills they need to care for their loved ones. Founded in 2014, Noora Health turns hospital hallways and waiting rooms into classrooms by tapping into the most compassionate resources available for the patient’s care: their own family.
With the support of seven state governments in India, Government of Bangladesh, and large private hospital systems, Noora Health has trained more than three million caregivers across more than 440 facilities. In a cohort of patients, the program reduced post-surgical cardiac complications by 71%, maternal complications by 12%, newborn complications by 16%, and newborn readmissions by 56%.
Noora Health was honoured as a TED 2022 Audacious Project Grantee and recipient of the 2022 Skoll Foundation Award for Social Innovation. Featuring Edith Elliott and Shahed Alam, our Co-Founders and Co-CEOs, Noora Health’s mission took the spotlight at TED 2022 and was also featured in a 2022 Skoll video.
Noora Health will pilot the Care Companion Program in Nepal in Q4 2024 in Maternal & Newborn Health & Non-Communicable Diseases. Our implementation in Nepal is in collaboration with a Nepal-based organisation called One Heart Worldwide.
