The Elderly Home
- a Location that Needs Us to Bring Joy
Ageing population is dominating in Hong Kong. Fortunate elderly receives
love and care from their love ones. Some elderly might be lonely but still they
can have their own flat to live in, yet, some are not that lucky.
There are approximately 80,000 elderly living in Elderly Home. As told by
our service centre, some of them live there because of health problems. Some are
sent by their family for unexpected reasons, sadly. They need us, a new generation to bring them joy, even though most of them are less mobile than what we may have met.
Po Leung Kuk Elderly Service Unit are now operating 11 homes providing a total capacity of 1396 beds. Pursuing the mission of fostering the spirit of care for the underprivileged, Po Leung Kuk urges the community to respect one another for reaching a social harmony. Their Ever Green Day Care Centre for the Elderly tries to provide beds and medical aids to the elderly in the Kwai Tsing District. In this service, HKOSA serves as a vivid new generation to listen to the elderly's voices so as to make them feel as not alone and care along the way.
