Noora Health is a pioneering nonprofit organization dedicated to improving health outcomes by equipping family caregivers with the skills and confidence they need to support their loved ones. Founded in 2014, Noora Health was born from the belief that families are an untapped resource in healthcare—capable of making a profound difference in patient recovery and well-being. By transforming hospital hallways and waiting rooms into classrooms, Noora Health empowers caregivers to become active partners in the healing process.
