The Silver Book Project
Honoring and valuing our elders is indigenous
in our Filipino culture.
In the past older people were highly respected because they were seen to be valuable in passing on survival-based wisdom to the next generation.
However, today’s society has lost a huge part of this sentiment. The youth-oriented culture in our modern society has diminished and desensitized this core value of caring for the elderly.
To address this challenge and in line with Southville’s 5Cs…
…the College of Nursing has embarked on a Community Extension program to address health and wellness needs of the senior citizens in Brgy CAA4.
