Lifeline Hope Foundation operates as a critical partner within Sri Lanka’s state healthcare system, with a particular focus on cancer care and palliative support.
Our Operations Overview
• Service Integration: Lifeline Hope Foundation works in close collaboration with the Palliative Care Units of the National Cancer Institute (Apeksha Hospital), Maharagama, and Karapitiya Teaching Hospital, Galle, delivering home-based palliative care services to patients.
• Holistic Support: Our services address the comprehensive needs of terminally ill patients and their families, including psychological, emotional, mental, and spiritual care, complementing the medical treatment provided by government hospitals.
• Accountability & Monitoring: Programme implementation and outcomes are monitored through a structured, performance-based framework overseen by the Government NGO Secretariat, ensuring compliance, transparency, and measurable social impact in line with official reporting standards.
• Complementary Care: By filling critical gaps within the public healthcare system, Lifeline Hope Foundation provides essential services not fully covered under government social services—such as specialized care, counselling, psychological support, and compassionate assistance for patients’ families.
• Societal care: Palliative care is a collective social responsibility to provide holistic support—physical, emotional, and spiritual—to patients with life-threatening illnesses and their families, extending beyond medical treatment to home-based, community-driven care. Partners like BOC Pensioner's Association of Homagama Region and Katuwana Eksath Yahasadhaka Sangamaya have come forward understanding and supporting this social care need.
