Manulife Hong Kong launches healthcare program for the elderly

The firm has partnered with the Christian Family Service Centre for the program.

Manulife Hong Kong is launching a healthcare program with flexible end-to-end medical services to support elderly singles and couples with limited family support and mobility problems.

In partnership with the Christian Family Service Centre (“CFSC”), the Manulife Health Resilience Program for the Elderly aims to provide 1,000 online medical consultations for targeted seniors in phase one, with end-to-end support to help them rebuild their health from home. The program includes online consultations with Chinese and Western medical practitioners and the delivery of medicine.

This program comes at the back of a wave of COVID-19 in Hong Kong that has impacted the medical needs and recovery of the elderly. The program, funded by the Manulife Charitable Foundation, will help seniors to build resilience and provide them with healthcare support tailored to their needs during the pandemic. 

The Program for the Elderly will begin in May 2022 and run until April 2023.
