Home visits program was established to offer assistance to the elderly who cannot take care of themselves due to bad health or bad living conditions, and they have no relatives who could help them either. The services provided depend upon the specific needs of every individual. The beneficiaries are given assistance in their own homes since they have reduced physical and mental abilities due to illness, disability or social isolation. This program aims to enhance their feelings of content and security while at the same time reducing the feelings of powerlessness and abandonment and improving the quality of their lives. The need for this kind of out of institutional care is constantly rising (old peoples' homes are deficient).
