Personalized homecare services
The Buurtzorg nursing team will assess comprehensive needs of elderly during the first home visit. Based on the initial assessment, an individualized care plan will be developed for each participant. Our team will provide comprehensive nursing care for the elderly participants over the course of 6 to 12 weeks, which enables them to continue "age in place" in a familiar community.
New members will receive an initial consultation session free of charge.
Community-based Health Management Program
Referred by district partnering organizations, our interdisciplinary team consists of social workers and nurses will conduct comprehensive health assessments and develop individualized care plans based on the results of the assessment. This program aims to assist the elderly participants in establishing their health vision, increase participant's awareness of their own health, jointly set health goals and improvement plans, strengthen their self-efficacy, and improve the health and lifestyle of the elderly in the long run. This program will also leverage the participant's informal and formal care networks to support the development of community care and support services of the elderly.
Currently, we are only accepting referrals from partnering organizations.
