From this month, the Hong Kong government mandated that citizens entering and leaving government facilities must use the "Travel with Peace" to scan the QR code. However, some elderly people asked for help from the Senior Citizens' Housing Association because they did not know how to use the program.
According to the association, nearly 300 requests for help have been received so far, mainly when the elderly did not understand the new measures at the beginning of the implementation of the measures.
In addition to answering enquiries, the association also assists smartphone users to download apps and teaches how to use them.
Wang Honghong, Chief Executive Officer of the Association for the Elderly, said that so far, it has received nearly 300 requests for help from the elderly about travelling with peace of mind. The association hopes to support the elderly from different perspectives on travelling with peace of mind.
People often ask for help because they don’t have a smartphone and don’t know the details of the measures
She pointed out that on the first day the government introduced the measures, many elderly people were confused about the measures, including not knowing where they needed to use the program, and whether they had to use the program, etc. There were also elderly people who asked for help because they did not have a smart phone.
The association will first explain the requirements of the measures for this type of elders, including elders over 65 years old who can replace them with "paper-filled paper pads" and use programs to go to markets and other government premises.

Elderly illiterate are "filled in paper" by their family members in advance
However, since there are elderly people who are illiterate, it is necessary for the association to discuss with their family members. For example, the family can fill in the information for the elderly so that the elderly can give it to the staff before entering the premises.
Wang Honghong also pointed out that the staff will assist users who use smartphones to download applications and teach how to use them.
In addition to the first-line safety bell user association, it also assists all the elderly to download and travel with peace of mind
At present, the association has expanded its support. In addition to assisting users of the "One-line Safety Bell", it will also assist the general elderly in downloading relevant applications on their personal smartphones.
