Firms trialling alternative senior care model worry about hiring the right caregivers quickly

For assistance might be of benefit to people like Mr. Alvin Gan’s mom, who has dementia and resides with three people in a flat.

Mr. Gan used to be her mother’s major caretaker, making sure she ate and ate the right foods. He took her to a day treatment center for several years after he married and had his own children.

” But she did n’t manage to actually make some friends, a long- term friendship”, Mr Gan recounted.

No one was looking after her, she claimed. When I went to work, the house was empty, just her staying all by herself, and she got pretty sad”.

He became aware of the Red Crowns design while considering visiting a traditional medical facility.

She has had the opportunity to interact with various people her age while residing in a straight with people. Additionally, Mr. Gan stated that he can come to see her at any time.

” Yet before she was diagnosed with schizophrenia, there were not a lot of options left for me to look into. Most of the time, I had to employ domestic helpers to assist her in taking care, which is not the best option because the girl was just able to take care of her when she had to eat and drink, according to Mr. Gan.

” In the past, she stayed all by herself ever since my father passed on, so for many centuries, she was all alone. Psychologically, alone, mentally, she was only as well”.

Then, Mr Gan said she has become the “youngest girl” in her level and gets help from the other elders.

” She opened up quite a lot. She’s more available and more cheerful than before”, he added.
