Last updated: 2020-01-24 20:40Tomorrow is the first day of the new year. The Senior Citizens ’Homes Association produced a new year and fundraising short film. Three" Friends "volunteers made short videos to remind everyone, especially the elderly, to keep in mind the healthy eating habits of salt and sugar in the new year. Beware of "three highs", that is, high blood pressure, lipids, and blood sugar levels.
In the film, the elders imitate the advertising bridge and point out that the sugar and salt content of fried rice cakes are very high; there is also a "Friends" incarnation of God of Wealth, adapted the lyrics of "God of Fortune", reminding the elderly to taste festive food, and at the same time exercise more to maintain health. In addition, if you eat too much rice cakes with high oil content and sugar content, your blood pressure will soar at any time. Elderly volunteers also performed "Counting Bailan", noting that everyone wanted more vegetables and less meat, and wished everyone good health and peace every year.
For 23 years, as of November last year, the “One-line Security Bell” charity program has helped 28,239 elders. The Association has helped more than 600,000 people be sent to the Accident and Emergency Department for treatment, more than 10 million people have found support or care services, and helped find nearly 2000 One suspected missing case, and telephoned 8.7 million phone condolences to service users of the "One-line Security Bell". In addition, registered nurses also successfully provided health counselling to 60,000 people over the phone.
