Suwon City Implements 'Activity Assistance Service for Severely Disabled'

Suwon City has been providing activity assistance services since April to severely disabled individuals who face difficulties with social activities, promoting independent living and social participation.

The activity assistance service for the severely disabled involves the city dispatching activity assistants to help disabled individuals with household chores and provide services such as mobility assistance and communication support.

Park Hae-wang, director of the Elderly and Disabled Division at Suwon City, stated, "According to a service satisfaction survey of activity assistance users conducted in September, 88.2% expressed high satisfaction with the activity assistance service," and added, "Next year, we plan to reduce personal out-of-pocket expenses and expand service hours."
