Ganga Prem Hospice, Rishikesh

15/02/2026

Ganga Prem Hospice has taken the environment-friendly initiative of recycling puja flowers and turning them into fragrant herbal dhoop for burning. The Sukhdayini Ma Ganga temple post-puja flowers are gathered and sun-dried. They are then mixed with dried tulsi and neem leaves, dried cow dung, clean water, clarified butter and other ingredients and made into dhoops that are completely natural. Our staff, patients and their caregivers happily participated in the activity of rolling the dhoops and they were ready just in time for the auspicious day of Mahashivratri! 🔱🕉️

India's 77th Republic Day celebrations at Ganga Prem Hospice today!

23/01/2026

The yellow fervour of Basant Panchmi was evident today at Ganga Prem Hospice. The day started with Saraswati Puja in which patients, their caregivers and GPH staff participated and prasad was distributed. The harmonium was played by some and everybody sat around, taking the opportunity to mingle with each other on what was a rainy day.
The GPH staffers were seen today not in their professional uniforms but in vibrant yellows! 💛✨✨💛

A small but important part of daily palliative care: grooming.
It keeps up the hygiene levels and makes the patients feel clean and well cared for. ✨🌸
