Thailand has approached ageing society. Families and communities are seriously confronting limited resources to look after ageing parents and other relatives as Thailand becomes a full-fledged ageing society over the years. Young family member should be responsible for these major challenging problems. Panyananthaphikkhu Chonprathan Medical Center (PCMC) initiates youth health volunteers called ‘Mor-Jew’ (little doctors) project. This project trains the youth volunteers (age 9–14 years old) from the community to practice basic screening, triage procedure such as blood pressure and blood glucose monitoring, and educating them about common disease prevention as well as basic hygiene to take care of elderly in their family. Also, these health volunteers can teach adult in the community how to prevent mosquito-borne illnesses, such as dengue fever. This program can be served as a bridge to the formal health system (primary healthcare unit, health promoting hospitals and referral hospitals) and actively promotes the cooperation between people in their communities and schools through the youth
