Home care for the elderly

FSC was the first non-governmental organization in Bacau County to develop a comprehensive home care and assistance program for the elderly, more than 20 years ago. The model created by FSC was later taken over and replicated by other organizations in the country and in Bacau. FSC has been instrumental through the network in setting up training and work legislation as well as various funding mechanisms.

Target area: Bacau city and several rural communities in the east of the county

General objective: ensuring the access of the elderly to medical and social care services at home
