Saudi Ministry of Human Resources intends to establish Elderly aid units

The Saudi Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development announced its intention to build five model units for the elderly in the Kingdom’s major cities, as well as to activate their community cards.

The units, according to the government, meet the unique demands of the elderly, such as easy access and entry without the need for additional thresholds in the structures.

Moreover, these units will provide other services needed by the old such as the allocations of tracks for pushcarts, with the floors conforming to the nature of the elderly and lowering the risk of falling by utilizing less hard surfaces.
