Community Support Services

“Healthy Ageing” and “Ageing in Place” are the main concerns of our community support services. We encourage elders to develop healthy and balanced life, make good use of their leisure time, and participate actively in different activities to develop their potentials to the fullest. Besides, to actualize the concept of “Ageing in Place”, we provide home care services, nursing and rehabilitation services to assist the needy elders and their families living in the community. With 45 different types of community support services centres, we strive to provide a wide spectrum of quality services to our elders.

  • Home Care Services for Frail Elderly Persons

Through different types of residential care service which run by our 25 elderly homes and multi-disciplinary staff teams, we provide quality and comprehensive care and rehabilitation services to those elders in need to enable them to enjoy their old age.

10-12/11/2025 及26-28/1/2026 東華三院「護老齊接力」計劃 - 「護老友伴培訓課程」


攜手分擔責任 延續愛與關懷
以「護老友伴」支援護老者

為回應香港人口急速老化及護老者壓力日益加劇的挑戰,東華三院安老服務部於2025年11月起正式推出「護老齊接力」計劃。計劃透過建立社區互助網絡,為護老者提供喘息空間,並同時提升長者的生活質素與福祉。

培訓友伴 集腋成裘
「護老友伴」為計劃的重要元素,因此,「護老友伴培訓課程」已於2025年11月10日至12日及2026年1月26日至28日舉行。課程由不同專業人士主講,有關培訓內容涵蓋護理技巧、情緒支援方法及危機處理等。

127位「護老友伴」來自東華三院轄下不同的長者地區中心、長者鄰舍中心及年輕長者中心,他們均需通過評核,才正式成為專業的「護老友伴」,與護老者同行,提供暫托陪伴及覆診支援。此舉不僅讓體弱長者獲得即時協助,更為護老者創造喘息空間,減輕長期照顧壓力,成為支援護老者的最大後盾。
