Training grassroots women as caregivers to provide care services in the rural community

 

 

The venture aims to promote employment for grassroots women in the Sai Kung District. It will train them to become community caregivers to provide support and care services, including meal delivery, escort, health management, rehabilitation exercise, cognitive training and spiritual care, to hidden rural elderly. Adopting the "Learn and Earn" concept, it helps to increase the number of rural women entering the community care service market, alleviate the workforce shortage in the care industry and fill the gap of inadequate community care services in rural areas of Sai Kung, strengthening the capacity of care services in the rural areas of Sai Kung in the long run.
