For us, holistic care means looking after the mind, body, and spirit.

Our Christian Support Group, comprising of staff members and volunteers, came together to run a special bedside prayer activity for our residents. We are incredibly grateful for the group, whose presence brings comfort and strength to our patients during their recovery.

Through these heartfelt partnerships, we continue serving with heart and hope, regardless of race or religion.

Have a blessed and meaningful Good Friday.

Every year, our Psychosocial Services (PSS) department hosts a celebration for all our staff to join. This year, they hosted an event titled Passage of Light.

Participants were invited to view an immersive welcome exhibition featuring stories from and of our residents, before joining the highlight of the event - a moving Human Library session, where we were given the opportunity to hear directly from our PSS colleagues, volunteers and even our residents. They spoke about the various PSS programmes they facilitated and participated in, opening up opportunities for heartfelt sharing and exchanges.

When we share our journeys, we light the way for one another. Thank you to our wonderful PSS team for all that you do!
