"We worked on this project with one of our Singapore hospitals in 2006 to broadly help improve the lives of the elderly, in particular, in the space of elderly homecare. The hospitals in Singapore recognize that because of the aging population in Singapore, the hospitals could be overburdened with geriatric cases in the near future if something is not done to help improve homecare for the elderly. Ideally, the hospitals would prefer that elderly patients be able to take as much care of themselves at home and come to the hospital only when necessary for outpatient services.

In this regard, TIF designed & facilitated an innovation process to get a group of 50+ bankers to uncover insights & generate fresh new ideas/prototypes to how elderly homecare could be improved, in particular, improved beyond what was in existence today."


We, the Lions, are inspired by this video, and would like to share it with you. This video does not directly show the 'abandonment of elderly' but shows that compassion and care for the elderly exist in this community afterall, and it also shows how happy the elderly were to have receive great help from the kind people who would even spare a thought about them. We hope that after showng you this video, you would also feel inspired to show more concern for the elderly, and STOP ABANDONMENT!
