Ageing Wisely at Home: Concise & Practical Indian Guide to Manage Elder’s Heart Health, Diabetes and Well-being

Pratik Shrirang Fule is a veteran, entrepreneur and elder care advocate whose work is deeply shaped by personal experience, service life and a strong understanding of the challenges faced by ageing Indian families. Over the years, his professional journey across demanding military postings and operational environments gave him a close view of discipline, resilience, leadership and the emotional realities of being away from loved ones during critical phases of life. His experiences as a son, caregiver, husband and father gradually drew him towards the field of elder care, particularly the growing challenges faced by senior citizens dealing with cardiac, diabetic and lifestyle-related health conditions. Witnessing the struggles of ageing parents managing medications, mobility issues, routine monitoring, emotional isolation and post-hospital recovery inspired him to build practical solutions rooted in dignity, compassion and trust. Pratik is the founder of Atmadisha Elder Care, a home care initiative focused on supporting elderly individuals through personalized care, companionship, recovery assistance and long-term wellness support within the comfort of their homes. His vision is to bridge the widening gap between modern family structures and the increasing healthcare needs of senior citizens in India. Through Atmadisha, he advocates for preventive care, emotional support, family involvement and structured home-based assistance that allows elders to live with independence and respect. A thoughtful observer of Indian society and family dynamics, Pratik combines practical experience with a grounded understanding of caregiving realities faced by working professionals, children living away from parents and seniors navigating health challenges in later life. His writing reflects empathy, clarity and a solutions-oriented approach rather than medical jargon or abstract theory. Through this book, he aims to simplify elder care for Indian families and encourage a culture where ageing parents receive not only medical attention, but also emotional security, patience and meaningful companionship. His work seeks to empower families to handle elder care with confidence while promoting healthier, safer and more dignified ageing at home. Pratik currently is actively working towards building accessible and compassionate elder care solutions & ecosystem for Indian families.
