Aging in the Bay : Area Care Facilities Explored

2024-08-26
As Hong Kong's population rapidly ages, the society is entering an era of extreme aging, leading to increased demand for basic support for the elderly and their carers. According to the Social Welfare Department, as of 30th November, 2023, there were over 14,000 people waiting for Care and Attention Places and over 2,000 waiting for Nursing Places, with the longest wait exceeding a year and a half. The government initiated the Greater Bay Area elderly care plan as early as 2014, such as the Residential Care Services Scheme in Guangdong, which has been in operation for over a decade. How effective has it been? What considerations and concerns do grassroots elderly have when contemplating retiring in the Greater Bay Area? What benefits can seniors enjoy under the Residential Care Services Scheme in Guangdong?

Hong Kong Connection

If “ Hong Kong Connection ” were a tree, how old would it be? It was on 5 March, 1978 that the documentary series first went on the air in Chinese.

As the series continues, its staff are determined to go on uncovering and delving into every local and international topic that concerns the people in Hong Kong, whether it be political, economic, educational, commercial, environmental or technological.

A tree plays an important environmental role in refreshing the air that we breathe and holding from the earth on which we stand. It is Hong Kong Connection's mission to provide the public with information and analyses as well as an opportunity for rational discussion.

The programme is aired from 29 May 2023 (Monday) on RTHK32 at 9:30pm - 10:00pm.
