As Nigerians, we carry a deep-seated sense of responsibility and love for our families, especially our parents. For those of us living abroad, this responsibility is magnified by the distance that separates us from our loved ones. While we strive to build better futures for ourselves and our families, we often worry about the health and well-being of our elderly parents back home.
My Co-Founder and I have had the privilege of presenting our mission and services to many Nigerians within Nigeria and in the diaspora. These presentations are always met with enthusiasm and a clear recognition of the critical issues we aim to address—the healthcare needs of our elderly parents in Nigeria. Despite the evident need and initial interest, many still hesitate to take the final step to sign up.
This hesitation, while understandable, can have serious consequences. Did you know that 75% of people in developing countries like Nigeria lose one or both parents to untimely death before the age of 40? This is not just a statistic—it represents countless families, including ours, who have faced preventable tragedies.
Just this morning, I received a frantic call from someone who had previously shown interest but had not yet signed up. Their father was in a critical condition. Despite our best efforts, there was little we could do at that moment. This scenario is heart-wrenching and far too common. These preventable emergencies often end in heartbreak, leaving families to wonder, “What if?”
At GeroCare, we exist to provide peace of mind. We ensure that your parents receive regular, proactive medical care right in the comfort of their homes.
