Respite Care for Caregivers
Quality Dementia Day Care
The exceptional level of care and support provided by our dedicated and experienced healthcare professionals aims to slow down the deterioration of the person with dementia’s physical and mental functions.
Strength Focused Approach
Our personalised activity programmes are based on a strength-focused approach that maximises what the senior can do, rather than what they cannot.
Daily Engagement with Meaningful and Stimulating Activities
Our effective daily programme helps to enhance multiple aspects of our seniors physical, psycho-social and spiritual well-being. The variety of engaging activities make a positive difference in their everyday lives.
Therapeutic and Safe Dementia-friendly Environment
Creating the right environment where our seniors feel comfortable and confident is vital for their care. The positive environment encourages and motivates our seniors to take part in meaningful and culturally appropriate activities every day. We serve with a smile!
Reliable Support for Caregivers
We provide assuring service so that caregivers can feel safe and enjoy a better quality of life.
We pay attention to the caregiver’s physical and mental health and support them develop strategies to cope with the issues in his/her caring role towards the patient.
