Introduction

Praia do Manduco Elderly Centre and Casa Ricci Elderly Centre have each served the community for over thirty years. Through social welfare services and the organization of social support networks, they have fostered mutual care and friendship among the elderly, encouraging them to stay active both physically and mentally, participate in society, and enjoy their golden years. To diversify services and meet societal needs, the two centers merged in January 2022 to form Hino Luminoso Elderly Centre. This merger expanded facility space, improved equipment, and optimized the work team, enabling the provision of more diverse services for the elderly in the community.

Objective

The center was established to promote mutual care and friendship among the elderly in the community, encouraging them to stay active both physically and mentally, participate in society, and enjoy their golden years. Through social services, the center aims to enhance the quality of life for the elderly, encourage lifelong learning, and enable them to contribute their talents to society. The ultimate goals are to ensure the elderly have a sense of belonging, opportunities for learning, and the ability to contribute meaningfully.

Service Content

The center provides a venue for social gatherings and interactions among the elderly. It organizes recreational and educational activities for elderly individuals with self-care abilities, offers social information, and provides social services to meet other community development needs.
