WHO WE ARE
YosAid Innovation Foundation works with health systems in India to promote creative healthcare practices and skills among the patients and their families.
As part of this effort, YosAid has partnered with Noora Health to implement the Care Companion Program in India and support Noora Health’s mission of strengthening health systems by equipping family caregivers with the knowledge and skills 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 support from governments and partners in India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Nepal, Noora Health has trained more than 51.4 million caregivers and patients across 16,000+ facilities using their flagship caregiver education and training curriculum, the Care Companion Program (CCP).
In a cohort of patients, the CCP reduced post-surgical cardiac complications by 71%, maternal complications by 12%, newborn complications by 16%, and newborn mortality by 18%.
Noora Health is an Audacious Project Grantee and received the Skoll Foundation Award for Social Innovation. To learn more, watch our TED Talk, Skoll feature, or read about our partnership with the World Health Organization.

The objective of this role is to develop a constructive, interactive, continuous and adaptable knowledge-building system for the population accessing public healthcare. As a Program Associate, you will play a critical role in managing the engagement of the Care Companion Program with our partners.

• You love checklists. You don't like to sit behind shiny glass panels
