The Government has launched the three-year Pilot Scheme for Elderly Recipients of Comprehensive Social Security Assistance to Reside in Residential Care Homes in Guangdong (Pilot Scheme), which is funded by the Community Care Fund, on 1 October 2025.  The Pilot Scheme aims to subsidise elderly recipients of Comprehensive Social Security Assistance (CSSA) who opt to retire in the Guangdong Province to reside in residential care homes for the elderly (RCHEs) under the Residential Care Services Scheme in Guangdong (hereafter referred to as “designated RCHEs”) to enhance their quality of life.  With a quota of 1 000, each eligible elderly person will receive a monthly subsidy of HK$5,000.
