Compassion is an essential part in Caring for devotees. The other areas are:
1.    Physical care
2.    Mental Care
3.    Emotional Care
4.    Social Care
5.    Spiritual Care

Physical Care: is given old devotees, children, women, devotees who do not keeping good in health. One need to render service through Tan/Body, Man/Mind, Dhan / Financial to such devotees.

Mental care: Help them to take decisions through Accepting. These are the two of five functions of the mind that are external in its nature.
(Accepting things that are favourable to DS - Abhaya Dna, Chakshu Dana, Sastra Dan and Rejecting things unfavourable to DS – Asat Sanga Tyaga & NOI 1-4)

Emotional Care: Helping then in their thinking feeling and willing propensities. These are three of the five functions of the Mind but since they are internal in nature they represent the emotions of a person.

Social Care: Through Association – Kaya Vacha Manasa - Personal Visits, Lip Service, Prayers (Without the help of the Mind no devotee can help oneself or the other, so mind is a via media for all interactions). 
Spiritual Care: Establishing Sambanda with Krsna, delineating the Process of Abhideya for the attainment of Prayojana. In short teaching How to Love krsna because final Goal is Prema

All of the above is to be done to serve the parts and parcels of Krsna which should to based on Love and trust and Spiritual motivated to distribute Krsna to every soul and facilitate His surrender to the Lord and help Him reach the Lord. This in essence is spiritual Care.
