The Askari societies have a distinctive profile: a lot of retired residents, often in apartments rather than houses, frequently with adult children posted elsewhere in the country. When a parent has a stroke or a serious fall, the family is often assembling care from a distance and under time pressure.
Stroke recovery is the case we see most in Askari. It is demanding work done properly: turning every two hours through the night to keep the skin intact, NG tube feeding at set intervals with the head of the bed raised, passive limb exercises so the joints do not freeze, catheter hygiene, and watching for the chest infection that is the most common thing to go wrong in the first months.
Apartment living changes the practical side of care. Space is tighter, a hospital bed may not fit through the door of the room you had in mind, and lifting cannot be improvised. Our staff work this out with you on the first visit rather than discovering it at three in the morning.
How fast we reach Askari
Around 1 hour for urgent visits across the Askari societies. For 24-hour stroke or tube-feeding cover we prefer a day’s notice so we can brief the full rotation properly.
We answer the phone 24 hours a day, including nights, Sundays and public holidays. Call 0302 5286596 and tell us your street and the nearest landmark.

One thing worth knowing about care in Askari
In the Askari apartment blocks, lift access and stair width decide what is possible. Before a bedridden patient comes home, tell us the floor and whether there is a working lift — if not, we plan the transfer with enough people rather than risking a fall on a stairwell.
