Project Duration: March 01, 2019 – March 01, 2020 (12 months)

Location:  Gyumri, Shirak Region and Tashir, Lori Region

Number of Beneficiaries:  110 beneficiaries of Day Care Centers in Gyumri and Tashir

Goal:   The aim of the project is to improve the facilities at Day Care Centers for the Elderly in Gyumri and Tashir and enhance quality of the healthcare services provided at the Centers

Description: The Day Care Centers in Gyumri and Tashir have been operating in buildings that have not undergone any major renovations since their establishment in 2006-2007, and during these years the facilities became shabby and worn out urgently needing renovation activities.

In the frames of this project the roof of DCC in Gyumri was completely replaced. The old metal layer and wooden bars were removed, then the structure was redesigned to make one wholistic roof. These measures will prevent water leaking into DCC during heavy rainfalls or snowmelt.

The next major activity was acquiring geriatric and healthcare equipment and accessories to raise the quality of health care services provided to the beneficiaries at both day care centers in Gyumri and Tashir.
