BOGOR (September 18, 2019) - Services for the elderly are growing along with the increasing number of elderly.

"Models of service outside the orphanage and inside the institution increasingly require competent service providers, who have good skills and knowledge about the program and its implementation," said Edi Suharto, Director General of Social Rehabilitation when launching as well as giving direction in Guidance and Consolidation activities Aiming Aid Coordinator (BanTu LU) at The Mirah Hotel Bogor.

Home Care and Day Care Services are national programs for elderly services that require a companion in their implementation.

The companion is the person in charge of assisting, providing guidance, caring for, assisting daily elderly activities and spearheading the implementation of Home Care and Day Care activities.

Based on this, continuous efforts are needed to improve the knowledge, skills and abilities of the mentor in implementing the assistance program.

The activity, which will last until September 20, 2019, will be attended by 90 participants, representatives from NGOs, academics, Home Care and Day Care assistants and central participants.
