Our History

Care and Cure was born as an afterthought of a very casual conversation between an elderly patient and our founder, Mr. Shiju Stanley. The year was 2010 and Mr. Shiju was working as a nurse, then. From the conversation, Mr. Shiju gathered that, the elderly patient was at the hospital for a wound dressing. For genuine reasons, they had to wait for hours to get this done. Mr. Shiju could not come to terms with this problem that wasn't just faced by one, but by many who frequented the hospital for post-hospitalization care like diagnostic services, feeding tube change etc.

With a fervour to do more in life rather than just a 9 to 6 job and the intention to solve the problem for good, Shiju sowed the seed of Care and Cure. With little to no experience in entrepreneurship, he started off with the novel idea. The ideation statement was simple and straightforward: hospital-like services in the comfort of a home. Thus, he got going by providing basic medical assistance and services to known patients at their homes. This was back in 2010 when home care services as a concept, although popular in the metros of India and western countries, was unheard of in a city like Trivandrum.

For the initial two years, Care and Cure ran solely on word of mouth publicity. The references received from clients and their positive feedback gave Mr. Shiju the affirmation he yearned for. Soon, Care and Cure grew from one nurse and a preloved car to fifteen care givers in less than three years time. Today, the Care and Cure Team has a full fledged team of sixty professionally certified caregivers, a backend team of fifteen members, eight doctors on pay-roll, who have a proven track record across multiple disciplines and a fleet of sixteen vehicles plying along the roads of Trivandrum city and its outskirts. With the backing of more than 51000 happy customers and a Google Rating of 4.9 from 600+ reviews, Care and Cure is the go to name for home care services.
