Alternative Approach in Elderly Home Care Project Finds Success In ASEAN Member Countries 6 September 2006
As part of ASEAN's continuing drive to partner with Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), the pilot Project of the Home-Care for the Older People in the ASEAN Countries has resulted in more than 400 volunteers trained to provide basic healthcare, hygiene, social and physical assistance to the elderly. The Project Advisory Committees (PACs) consisting of the national governments and the partner CSOs in each of the countries have played a great role in leading the project to success, resulting in the continuation of a second phase for the project in July this year.
