Hi Dr. MEL, may I ask about the Standardized Care Need Assessment Mechanism for Elderly Services? I wonder if the family members could apply it directly, for older adults?

No worries.

I see! Thank you for your reply.

The older adults or their families may raise requests for Subsidized LTC services to social workers of the Medical Social Services Unit, Family Service Centers or Elderly Service unit in the district. Then the social worker will conduct an initial screening and assessment.
