Furthermore, Pujianto provided information about the functions of residential-based services in the hall that had been implemented. "The center is a place of therapy for the elderly, how I communicate with social workers, do activities and sports almost every day. Planting on agro-tourism land is also used by the elderly to fill their spare time, apart from being a means of socializing between the elderly, the function of therapy also aims to restore the social functioning of the elderly. In the future, hopefully it can be economically productive from gardening, and the elderly can also feel the results," explained Pujiyanto

The concept of Agrotourism for the Elderly, which was inaugurated by the Indonesian Minister of Social Affairs on February 18, 2021, applies the concept of accessibility for the elderly and disabled by adding footpaths, iron handrails on the side of the road, and special roads for the disabled. The management of Elderly Agrotourism that has been made by the Budhi Dharma Elderly Center Bekasi is very good and the suggestions for the future Elderly Agrotourism can also be enjoyed by millennial youth, starting by adding instagramable green open spaces and paths for reflection made of reflection stones that serve to blood circulation according to the direction of the Indonesian Minister of Social Affairs, Tri Rismaharini.
