NH Nonghyup Life is expanding its community activities to support dementia patients and their families.
On August 27, NH Nonghyup Life announced that its Chungnam-Sejong headquarters has recently been certified as a 'Dementia Leading Company,' bringing the total number of certified locations nationwide to 12.
Since becoming the first subsidiary of Nonghyup Financial to receive the Dementia Leading Company certification in 2017, NH Nonghyup Life has been increasing its certified locations across the country.
The Dementia Leading Company initiative is part of a national dementia management program promoted by the Central Dementia Center of the Ministry of Health and Welfare. Companies that contribute to creating dementia-friendly environments, such as having employees complete dementia partner training, receive this certification.
NH Nonghyup Life is collaborating with local dementia centers and municipalities, utilizing its nationwide network to improve awareness of dementia and foster a culture that supports dementia patients and their families.
These activities will be expanded in conjunction with NH Nonghyup Financial's 'Safe Care Project.' This project aims to reduce the inconveniences and risks faced by dementia patients and their families during financial transactions, in response to the aging population and increasing number of dementia cases.
Bang Soo-ho, head of the marketing strategy division, stated, "Dementia is an issue that the community must address together, beyond just individuals and families. We aim to be a company that supports dementia patients and their families, ensuring they do not feel isolated and can live with peace of mind in their daily lives."
