Residential Care Service Voucher (RCSV) Scheme for the Elderly
Residential Care Homes for the Elderly (RCHEs) participating in the Scheme have to provide non-subsidised places and meet the requirements specified by the Social Welfare Department on space standard, staffing and track record. Currently, there are different types of RCHEs joining as Recognised Service Providers (RSPs), including subvented homes, contract homes, NGO-run self-financing homes, Category EA1 homes under the Enhanced Bought Place Scheme and other private RCHEs meeting the entry requirements. For the list of RSPs, please click here to visit the SWD website.
