Cancer ranks second among deadly diseases worldwide, and India faces a massive cancer crisis, underscoring the need for detailed care solutions quickly. Better patient care and early detection bring rays of hope. Doctors believe we could prevent significant cancer deaths by changing risk factors and using proven prevention methods. After diagnosis, doctors create a tailored cancer treatment plan. This includes chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, or combination therapy. Oncology services offer holistic support to patients throughout their journey—from diagnosis to recovery. Along with diagnosis and customised treatment planning, this essential support provides supportive care, including pain management, nutritional guidance, mental health counselling, physiotherapy and palliative care to enhance comfort & quality of life.
Antara Care Homes provide oncology transition programmes that support patients through different phases of their treatment. Patients can stay for short-term or extended durations, depending on medical requirements, emotional needs, and recovery progress. This continuity of care ensures smoother recovery between hospital discharge and returning home.
Cancer rehabilitation at Antara includes therapies tailored to each patient’s needs:
The intensity of support adjusts to each patient’s treatment stage, from active recovery to symptom relief.
Antara’s infrastructure is designed to manage complex oncology cases, with 24/7 monitoring, immediate medical response capabilities, and a nurturing environment that reduces the stress of hospital-based care. The care model combines medical expertise, psychological support, and compassionate surroundings—helping patients recover physically and emotionally while ensuring safety and dignity.
This setup creates a safe healing environment that provides necessary medical support without the institutional atmosphere of a hospital intensive care unit.
Cancer patients need more than just medical treatment during their cancer care journey. Antara Care Homes provides a comprehensive support system that takes care of both the physical and emotional needs of people going through cancer treatment.

Dementia is an umbrella term that is used to describe symptoms that impact memory, hamper daily functions and also make communication tough, whereas Alzheimer’s is the most common type of Dementia.

While cases vary, confusion and difficulty in communicating in Dementia patients can often lead to anger outbursts.
Dementia can be a result of many risk factors, from genetics to lifestyle. Here are some indicators that can help you understand these better:
