Elders are often seen singularly through the lens of their medical conditions, but Neha Sinha chose a different path, one that honours their stories. Dementia is one of the most prevalent conditions affecting the elderly, and it is projected to triple by 2050. As CEO and co-founder of Epoch Elder Care, Neha dedicates herself to helping elders fight dementia with compassion and expertise, honoring their silent bravery and preserving their dignity.

The Early Years
Neha spent her early days as a counsellor in a rehabilitation centre for schizophrenia.

This immersed her in an ocean of learning. She witnessed unseen battles fought within one’s mind. This etched a simple yet powerful belief - healing requires more than medicine; it demands genuine emotional support and connection.

This catalysed the Epoch Elder Care ethos, which was initially a companionship provider. During her early days, she noticed a harsh reality about India’s elder care- families became primary caregivers for elders with chronic conditions like dementia, without any training, help, or knowledge. Keeping that in mind, Epoch took a revolutionary step of pivoting its model to ‘serious care’ with assisted living homes.

A Dream Brought to Life
One by one, Epoch Elder Care homes were brought to life through Neha’s extensive research, traveling abroad to study best practices, and training in palliative care ethics at Sophiahemmet University, Stockholm. An early achiever, she earned spots on Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia, BW 40 Under 40, and other prestigious lists. The latest step taken in September 2025, Epoch Monet House in Pune. With the launch of its newest 10-storeyed, multispecialty facility, elders of all profiles receive personalized, premium care. Through her compassionate yet strong leadership, Neha has shaped Epoch into a haven that has nurtured over 500 elderly lives and their families, with care and dignity.

Caring for the Individual, Not Just the Illness Condition
“We believe in focusing on the person as much as the medical condition.” Epoch’s philosophy is rooted in person-centred care, with compassion, innovation, and determination. Its ethos signifies a promise to understand an individual beyond the sickness.

A Future Founded on Honour
Neha’s vision positions Epoch Elder Care as a global source of research on dementia. It is set to change how India perceives, embraces, and supports elder care. Above all, she continues her journey to a world where growing old with dignity is not a privilege, but a simple human right.
