Thanks to the sponsorship of The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, the HKFWC launched a three-year "All Brilliant Carers" Project to provide carers with career planning services and help them start a new chapter in life. We are grateful that the HKFWC is sponsored by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust to extend the service to the North and Hong Kong. The service will promote carers' recognition and their strength development in the following ways:
"All Brilliant Carers" Training Scheme
- Enhancing their daily nursing and local knowledge to a professional level
- Helping bring their extensive experience to the workforce
- Teaching them to become "trainers" in the community to take care of new carers
"Well-being Coordinator" People-oriented Care Training
Drawing reference to the Certified Care Workers in Japan, the scheme transforms the Experienced Carers to Well-being Coordinator (WBC)
- To provides a higher level of recognition to community carers by taking a certified training course
- To alleviate the long-standing problem of human resources shortage in the care industries.
