Senior Care Centre
Since 01 October 2016, KWSH Day Rehabilitation Centre has been converted to Senior Care Centre (SCC).

Our Revised Packages (since 1 October 2016)
As part of our Senior Care Centre conversion and expansion plans, we have enhanced our services as follows.
NEW! Sunday Respite Care
We understand that caregivers need periodic rest. Sunday respite care allows caregivers to take a much-needed break and recharge from caregiving or take time off to go about their activities. The core service of respite care is to provide custodial care to persons needing care in their basic needs such as feeding, toileting, and mobility, as well as supervision for those who may need it regularly.

Community Rehabilitation
It aims to help clients reintegrate back to the community through a holistic centre-based rehabilitation programme. Our therapists work with clients individually to maintain, restore or maximise their functional abilities and delay the deterioration of health due to diseases and ageing. This will help them to lead fulfilling lives in the community.

It focuses on maintaining our clients’ functional ability and delaying physical deterioration due to diseases and ageing. It aims to engage them in social and recreational activities, cognitive stimulation activities, and wellness programmes that involve body strengthening and balance training.
Maintenance Day Care

The activities include reality orientation, cognitive stimulation, reminiscence, meaningful and culturally appropriate and other structured group therapeutic interventions.
