Supporting AACs’ IT Capabilities
This grant aims to support AACs in their digitalisation needs – these could include procuring new IT capabilities or making enhancements to current IT capabilities.
Active Ageing Centres (AACs) serve as the go-to point for all seniors in their community.
AACs provide the “ABC+2S” suite of services: Active Ageing, Befriending & Buddying, Information and referral to Care services, Social connector for social and lifestyle interventions and Community Screening.
AACs (Care) provide care services, such as day care and community rehabilitation, in addition to the services under the AAC service scope.
In support of the AAC service model rollout, it is essential for AACs to adopt technology as the cornerstone to design data-informed services for greater efficiency and as a single source-of-truth.
