    The Hong Kong Society for the Aged (SAGE) was established in 1977. It aims at excelling in the delivery of diversified and integrated services to the elderly and making sure they are taken care of well.<\/p>\n

    15 participants from the Caring Companies visited the u0022SAGE Kai Yip Neighbourhood Elderly Centreu0022 and u0022SAGE Kai Yip Care and Attention Home for the Elderlyu0022 on 12 November. By watching a video, the participants learned more about the missions and service provided by the SAGE, including District Elderly Community Centres, Integrated Home Care Service and SAGE College etc.<\/p>\n

    The aging population is one of the pressing issues in the Hong Kong society. As the elderly become more advance in age, they face various kinds of problems and health issues. One of which is brain diseases like Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s Disease, which should be by no means neglected. To promote brain fitness, Brain Fitness Gymnasium under SAGE strengthens the brain functions of the elderly with the help of advanced technology and u0022brain-training systemu0022 in order to alleviate the problem of memory lapse and weakening recognition ability. The participants tried out the games as well! In addition, u0022\u8006\u6a02\u4fbf\u5229\u5e97u0022 is a social skill training centre, teaching the elderly the daily and social skills.<\/p>\n

    In this activity, the participants from Caring Companies expressed strong interest in elderly services, with visiting the Elderly Home being the most popular and welcomed among the elderly. A lot of participants indicated that they would like to share this experience with the colleagues and are looking forward to the next visit and bringing warmth, care and concern to the elderly.<\/p>\n
