The District-based Scheme on Carer Training
To equip individuals with basic elderly care skills and a caring mindset, and develop carer services at the district level, the Government launched “The District-based Scheme on Carer Training” (the Scheme) in October 2007 providing subsidies for District Elderly Community Centres (DECCs) and Neigbourhood Elderly Centres (NECs) to partner with community organisations in their districts in organising carer training courses and launching carer services by recruiting the trained carers as carer-helpers.
As at 31.3.2013, there were 88 DECCs/NECs participating in the Scheme. Please contact the following elderly centres if you would like to sign up for a carer training programme or become a carer-helper :
