Harmony Garden Lutheran Centre for the Elderly
Introduction
Since its establishment in 1997, Harmony Garden Lutheran Centre for the Elderly beholds the idea of "Sense of belonging, sense of security, sense of worthiness" in providing support service to the elders in helping senior to settle and to prolong their stay in the community, and providing best-matched supportive service for carers.
In meeting the growing needs of Hong Kong elders, our centre successfully transited into a neighborhood elderly centre in 2003 and implemented a number of new services such as carer support service and elder outreach service, ect.
To further enhance the service, our centre established “Hong Kong Red Cross Elderly Unit 19” in 2005.
In 2017, the facilities of the Centre were refreshed under the "Improvement Programme of Elderly Centres" (IPEC)
