Fostering Mental Well-being in Community and
Promoting Prevention and Early Detection
“Mental Health Healing and Education for the Elderly” Programme
Elderly depression and dementia are 2 of the most common diseases among Hong
Kong’s ageing population. To combat the problems, a 2-year community education
programme “Mental Health Healing and Education for the Elderly” was launched
in 2017. In the past year, the Elderly Services Section of TWGHs carried out a survey
on loneliness among the elderly in Hong Kong in partnership with Sau Po Centre
on Ageing, The University of Hong Kong. The results will be released in May 2018.
Furthermore, through a series of promotion videos and activities, the Programme
aims to promote the message of mental health care for the elderly and to increase
public awareness of early intervention.
“Dementia Community Support Services for the Elderly” Scheme
TWGHs Wilson T.S. Wang District Elderly Community Centre and TWGHs
Fong Shu Chuen District Elderly Community Centre participated in a 2-year
pilot scheme named “Dementia Community Support Services for the Elderly”
from February 2017 with the respective clusters of the Hospital Authority.
The Scheme aims at enhancing support for the elderly with mild to moderate
dementia and their careers in the community through a medical-social
collaboration model. The care plan for individual participants covers the
cognitive power and function, behavioural and psychological symptoms, and
physical co-morbidities of dementia patients as well as the psychosocial and care
support for the elderly.
“I-Greenery” for Social Inclusion and Mental Health Promotion
The “I-Greenery” for Social Inclusion and Mental Health organised thoughtful
gardening and horticultural programmes for people with emotional issues to
promote the importance of positive mind and health. These included horticultural
therapeutic groups, green
experimental workshops, and
community-level promotional
events. Among the beneficiaries
of the Project were people with
physical and mental disabilities,
psychiatric rehabilitants, people
with cognitive disabilities,
caregivers, youths and the
working population. Sponsored
by the Central Western,
Southern and Islands District
Social Welfare Office of
Social Welfare Department,
the “Arts Unlimited Mental
Health Community Promotion
Project” was launched to
enhance the emotional well-
being and mental health of the
underprivileged.
