Smart Care Lab 3.0

Smart Care Lab 3.0:Smart Care Worker Volunteer Recruitment!

Programme introduction

The "Smart Care Lab 3.0" programme introduces experiments related to cognitive impairment and rehabilitation treatment and applies them to home care services, aiming to provide appropriate care and assistance for the elderly suffering from dementia or stroke sequelae and their families.

Currently, 50 golden-age volunteers are being recruited to serve as Smart Care Workers. They will learn to use smart care technology and rehabilitation treatment tools to provide "Social Prescribing" service support for the elderly who are ageing at home. The programme's professional team provides training and employment opportunities so that they can add new impetus to the labour market and develop the golden agers to become a "new force in the labour market."

Let us work together to bring warmth and care to the elderly in the community!
