Residential Care Service Voucher (RCSV) Scheme for the Elderly
The Residential Care Service Voucher (RCSV) Scheme for the Elderly (the Scheme), adopting the "money-following-the-user" principle, provides an additional choice for elderly persons in need of residential care services and waitlisted for care and attention (C&A) places or nursing home (NH) places on the Central Waiting List for Subsidised Long Term Care Services.
Starting from 11 June 2024, the coverage of RCSVs will be expanded from the existing C&A places to NH places. An extra 1 000 RCSVs will also be provided, bringing the total to 5 000, so as to benefit more elderly persons.
