新蒲崗區長者友善關懷計劃
腳踏實地長者友善家居防跌計劃
為了發掘及接觸區內未被關顧的長者及建立長者友善社區，
本中心於2018年9月至2019年3月與社署及區內長者地區中
心合作，為長者提供跌倒風險及家居安全的評估。計劃透過
職員培訓、街站（防跌評估）、家訪及職業治療服務等方
式，發掘社區上一群需要「行樓梯」、「家居環境不安全」
及「支援較薄弱」的隱蔽長者和護老者，為他們建立網絡，
把服務帶到他們家中。計劃中共有200位居住在新蒲崗區裡
的長者接受防跌的初步檢測，當中較高危的50位長者更以個
案形式跟進其需要（如申請電器、樓宇維修津貼、長期護理
照顧服務等），使他們生活獲得改善。
「愛•在家」體弱長者居家支援計劃
為加強提供護老者及認知障礙症社區支援服務，本中心在
2019年正式開展「愛‧在家」體弱長者居家支援計劃。計
劃由社工評估長者及護老者的需要，然後訂立個別的照顧
計劃，服務包括提供家居照顧服務，舒緩照顧者的壓力，
並為有需要的被照顧長者提供復康及認知訓練服務，提升
其效能感，促進身心健康。
San Po Kong Age-friendly Community
Care Programme for the Elderly
Age-friendly Community Scheme for Fall
Prevention of Elderly
In order to identify and reach out the elderly who have not
been cared for and to build an Age-friendly Community for
the elderly, the centre was co-working with Social Welfare
Department (SWD) and District Elderly Community Centre
(DECC) from September 2018 to March 2019 to provide the
assessments of fall risk and home safety for the elderly in
San Po Kong. Through the staff training, street station (fall
risk assessment), home visits and occupational therapy
services, we hoped to explore a group of hidden elders and
needy carers who had insufficient social support network,
especially those living at non-lift landing flat and risky home
environment. The project aimed to build up a network and
provided the services to support them. In the scheme, 200
elderly people living in San Po Kong joined the assessments
of preventive fall. The 50 elderly people who were assessed
as high fall risk, social workers and occupational therapist
visited individual households to provide further assessment
and follow up work such as applying for electrical appliances,
allowance from building maintenance grant scheme and long-
term care services, so as improve their living condition.
“LOVE@HOME”
Home Support Scheme for the Frail
Elderly
In order to strengthen the community support services
for frail elderly and their caregivers, Centre launched the
"Love@Home" Home Support Scheme since March 2019.
The social workers assessed the needs of the frail elderly and
their carers, and set up the individual care plan. The services
included the provision of home care services aiming to
relieve the pressure of the carers and provided rehabilitative
and cognitive training services to the elderly in need. It also
improved their physical and mental health to enhance their
sense of self-efficacy.
