Guided by our vision, mission, operating philosophy and principles of person-centred care, we are preparing to respond to the changing profiles of persons with dementia (PWDs). Increasingly, we are seeing a newer generation of seniors, persons with young onset dementia and individuals with mild cognitive impairment whose aspirations and needs differ significantly from those of the late onset dementia profile. Without the right level of challenge and engagement that is meaningful to them, there is a heightened risk of depression, disengagement or agitation.
Over the next few years, our strategic plans focus on designing more ground-up approaches, developing systems to measure impact and creating knowledge resources tailored to these emerging groups of seniors.
We envision an intergenerational lifestyle club that offers a meaningful change of environment. The Chan Kum Leong Club provides resort-style wellness activities, continuous learning opportunities and psychological support to promote well-being.
The space is also intended to connect with the wider community. It will serve as a dynamic hub that welcomes seniors from the neighbourhood and nurtures a community of volunteers, whom we will specially equip and support for this work.
