Yeongdeungpo-gu Care SOS Center Card News Production

Care SOS Center Heartwarming Stories Compiled into Picture Cards... Posted on Old Website and Official SNS... Created with Images and Brief Descriptions for Easy Understanding... Five Additional Posters Produced

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yeongdeungpo-gu (Mayor Chae Hyun-il) announced that it is promoting the Care SOS Center’s services through illustrated card news that showcases the services at a glance.

The card news explains the core contents of the project with illustrations, making it easy for anyone to understand, and is gaining attention as an efficient promotional tool due to its versatility across various media.

This year’s card news was created based on heartwarming stories experienced by care managers, the dedicated personnel of the Care SOS Center, who meet directly with service users.

The card news can be viewed in the Yeongdeungpo-gu Office website under Yeongdeungpo News → Illustrated Stories section, featuring card news starting with an introduction to the 18 neighborhood-level Care SOS Centers, followed by meal support services that emphasize the importance of one meal a day, and accompaniment support services that help solve urgent problems together.

The meal support service card news includes stories of delivering nutritious lunchboxes to elderly people who rely on ramen for every meal, vulnerable households struggling to prepare meals due to hand tremors caused by cerebral infarction, and households skipping meals because of old age and poor living conditions that make cooking difficult.

The accompaniment support service card news features stories of providing Care SOS accompaniment services to a person with severe intellectual disabilities who has difficulty with banking tasks, a vulnerable household with long-term diabetes suffering from retinal vision loss making hospital visits difficult, and an elderly person facing challenges with nursing hospital admission procedures, successfully resolving all situations smoothly.

Additionally, the district is continuing to promote services by producing five types of posters and leaflets themed on the Care SOS Center’s main projects: temporary home care, accompaniment support, meal support, emergency care, and residential convenience.

The posters and leaflets contain brief introductions to the projects, usage procedures, and contact information for the Care SOS Centers in each neighborhood to request help in emergencies.

The promotional materials will be delivered to the 18 neighborhood community centers to be distributed to vulnerable households in need.

The card news will also be produced monthly by selecting one service theme such as short-term facility services, residential environment improvement, and welfare checks, and posted on the district and neighborhood websites, Yeongdeungpo-gu blog, Instagram, and other official SNS channels to continuously strengthen promotion efforts.

Chae Hyun-il, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo-gu, stated, “We will strive to improve accessibility and awareness among residents through various promotional media, as well as prepare high-quality welfare policies so that people can confidently turn to the Care SOS Center in urgent or sudden care situations.” He added, “We will do our best to build a dense welfare safety net so that all residents can enjoy universal welfare.”
