In partnership with some rural municipalities, postmen will be in charge of carrying out scrutiny – check that the most vulnerable older persons are fine and are recieving what they need – and bring assistance to them at home, e.g. in delivering their shopping or medicines.
A questionnaire will be handed out to 60,000 inhabitants aged over 80 and living – mostly alone – in remote areas with a view to identifying isolated older persons. The final objective will be to guide the isolated person towards a public assistance structure when needed.
