As people age, they often face a gradual decline in physical functioning and an increase in health problems, which may include chronic diseases, mobility problems, and cognitive impairment. These health challenges make the elderly need special care and support to cope with various difficulties in their daily lives. It is worth noting that the ability and willingness of family members to care for their elderly parents or grandparents may also be challenged with the changing structure of modern society. Work pressure, separation of work and residence, and changes in the lifestyles of family members are increasingly limiting the resources available for caring within the family. As a result, the elderly need to independently manage the various activities of daily living, which can be extremely challenging for them in their old age.
The ‘Love Plus 1’ service platform provided by Chiayi Christian Hospital serves about 5,000 carers in Chiayi each year, assisting elderly people in need of attention by providing services such as home visits, psychological counseling, and emotional support, as well as Organizing occasional carer seminars, festive gatherings, and handmade gardening activities. In 2023, Nova Tech donated NT$100,000 to social welfare long-term care and seriously ill patients. Through sponsorships and donations, Nova Tech is committed to building a warmer and more caring society, and easing the burden of life for the elderly.
