The Ministry of Social Development published in this weeks issue of the Official Gazette a new Governance Regulation of Social Welfare Institutions that aim to provide welfare services to the elderly.
The regulation covers matters such as the objectives of welfare homes, the conditions for admitting an elderly person to an elderly home, the conditions for volunteering at a welfare home, and the actions to be taken when an elderly person dies in a welfare home.
It is worth noting that the MOSD issued late last year a Governance Regulation of Temporary Welfare Institutions that aims to provide services for women, children and victims of human trafficking.
The new Governance Regulation of Social Welfare Institutions enters into force tomorrow. You can read in full in English on the link below:
