Eldercare organisations are exploring creative ways to support cognitive engagement and social connection among older adults living with dementia, from drumming activities to familiar television dramas.

Our Medical Social Worker, Brenda Loh, joined Lion Befrienders and TOUCH Community Services to highlight perspectives on dementia care, including how culturally familiar content can recall memories and encourage interaction.

At Allium Care Suites, around 80% of our residents enjoy familiar television programmes, reflecting the role of personal interests in everyday care.

At Allium Healthcare, meaningful activities nurture purpose and fulfilment across our day care and residential care programmes.
