Suma Care - General Duty Assistant (GDA) Training Initiative Project Overview
Suma Care is a healthcare skill-development initiative of Suma Blessings Foundation, created to make vocational healthcare training more accessible to individuals seeking meaningful employment and sustainable livelihoods.
The healthcare sector depends on trained support professionals who play an important role in patient assistance, personal care, hygiene, mobility support and everyday healthcare activities.
However, many young people and women from economically disadvantaged communities lack access to structured vocational training and career guidance.
Through the General Duty Assistant Training Initiative, we aim to bridge this gap by providing practical learning opportunities, developing essential caregiving abilities and preparing candidates for entry-level healthcare support roles.
Our approach combines knowledge, practical exposure, professional discipline and compassionate patient care to help participants become confident and responsible healthcare assistants.
Our Goal: Transform aspiring learners into skilled, responsible and compassionate healthcare support professionals.
