Caring for the Elderly

In September 2013, the Social Welfare Department launched the first phase of the Community Care Service Voucher for the Elderly, piloting the scheme in eight districts of Hong Kong under the concept of “money-following-the-user”, and Ho Hing Health Care Services Centre participated in the scheme as one of the approved service providers in Wong Tai Sin District. In October 2016, the Social Welfare Department launched the second phase of the scheme, and Ho Yam Care and Attention Home for the Elderly and Ho Ning Health Care Service Centre also became approved service providers of the scheme. The third phase of the Community Care Service Voucher for the Elderly was planned to launch on October 1, 2020.
