On 16th November 2024, ten elderly residents from the Senior Care Wellness Elderly Home participated in the "Happy Elderly Care Homes Launch Ceremony" organized by the ELCHK Multi-disciplinary Outreaching Support Team for the Elderly at Christian Pui Yan Primary School. This event aimed to promote the concepts of "regular exercise" and "balanced diets" among the elderly.
Resident LAU So-Lin served as the ribbon-cutting guest at the launch ceremony and shared her experiences and insights from participating in the "Low-event adventure activities" conducted by the ELCHK Multi-disciplinary Outreaching Support Team for the Elderly in Senior Care Wellness Elderly Home during an interview with the Corporate Communications Department of the Evangelical Lutheran Church Social Service – Hong Kong.
During the event, the residents of Senior Care Wellness Elderly Home tasted "healthy soft meals" and learned that the elders who experiencing swallowing difficulties still have options for their diets. Additionally, the residents participated in various "low- event adventure activities" organized by the event. In one of these activities, the residents placed balloons with their wishes into a "Gonge Parachute”, threw up and worked together to catch the balloons again, symbolizing how they can support each other's wishes.
The event attracted 168 elderly participants. The residents of Senior Care Wellness Elderly Home enjoyed a delightful afternoon with friends from other elderly care homes and will take on the mission of promoting a "Happy Elderly Care Home Culture" in their own residence.
