OUR CARE MODEL

A continuum of care

At Allium Care Suites, partnership with our residents and their families is at the heart of our care model. Our primary responsibility is to support you to live the life you want with a spectrum of specialist services. How you feel in our care is what truly matters. Welcome to a new world of residential care.

Care assurance

We care for individuals living with dementia every day. We understand that dementia affects each person differently. Our integrated care plan supports the needs of each individual, enabling you to live a life of purpose in a homely environment where you can be assured of continual care and meaningful activities.

DESIGNED FOR DEMENTIA

Fit for purpose

Meticulously designed to complement their natural settings, our dementia care suites are furnished in soft, warm hues to minimise sensory overstimulation.

Everywhere you look, the highest standards of dementia care ergonomics promote well-being and functionality. Our user-centered design delivery includes clear wardrobe doors, colour coded bathroom fittings, light switches and light panels, for ease of vignette recognition.

OUR CARE THERAPY

Attuned to your needs

Led by our Care Team who are specifically trained in dementia care and management, our care therapy includes general monitoring, assistance with activities of daily living (ADL) and exercises to promote independence and improve cognitive function.

Registered nurses are available, 24 hours a day, together with a team of Care Concierges. Together, they nurture social, physical and mental well-being and build connected relationships with each resident.

CREATIVE THERAPY

The art of dementia

Roadblocks to verbal communication laid by dementia are bypassed through the artistic process, and individuals can express themselves through the art. Concentration and attention improves, and patients are often easier to care for even when the therapy is over.
– Dr. Daniel C.Potts

Art therapy and music reminiscence are known to produce positive results in the treatment and prevention of cognitive decline. Our creative activities and music sessions stimulate the senses and create engaging sessions to provide you with a better quality of life.

We deliver practical care solutions and resources, transforming your caregiver experience at a schedule that works for you.

Strengthening relationships

Our medical social worker is a care professional who helps you and your family cope with the emotional and social responses to illness and treatment.

The core of our care plan is to effectively meet the needs of individuals and their families by connecting needs with resources.

At Allium Healthcare, our medical social worker has journeyed with many families through challenging situations. She provides invaluable support, advice and practical information on government schemes and assists with referrals to community agencies and resources.

CARE ASSESSMENT

The care journey begins with an assessment to understand the personal contexts of your loved ones’ situation and your family, social, cultural, and psychological systems and spiritual dimension.

INTERVENTION PLAN

Together, we discuss care goals and expectations, to deliver a best fit, comprehensive intervention plan based on specific concerns, preferences and unique social situations.

REVIEW

Evaluation of the intervention plan will be conducted with the involvement of your loved ones and family members to assess care support outcomes.

Refinement and adjustment are important and valuable parts of our casework process. The collaborative discussion of potential changes in a case plan not only strengthens the caregiver’s sense of accountability but also serves to empower and enable.

Our medical social worker will monitor, evaluate and review the care plan over the full course of intervention. The intervention process is complete when your loved ones and family members achieve a level of desired independence.

Continuous compassion

Advance care planning begins with a discussion to note personal preferences towards receiving medical care to meet long-term needs. It serves as a guide to healthcare providers to help with treatment decisions according to your loved ones’ wishes.

The process involves an advance care planning facilitator and your loved ones to explore, discuss and share personal values and beliefs, and to anticipate healthcare preferences and potential medical conditions and situations.

Different types of advance care planning will cater to the different needs and stages of life. At Allium Healthcare, we embrace client-centred care, incorporating evidence-based practice to deliver a holistic approach.

Your loved ones’ wishes and preferred plan of care will be documented. The advance care planning process also involves the appointment of a Nominated Healthcare Spokesperson (NHS) to advocate on behalf of your loved ones. This allows for your loved ones’ autonomy to be respected and reduces potential conflict and uncertainty amongst family members.

Continuity of care

Respite care provides temporary relief for caregivers to take a break from routine caregiving tasks. It is a rewarding experience for the elderly too, providing them with opportunities to engage in various activities with other elders under the guidance of our healthcare professionals.

Respite care allows family members to work during the day, take a break from routine caregiving, and is an option of consideration for families with caregivers planning their home leave. We deliver peace of mind in care transition to ensure the continuity of care for an elder requiring assistance and supervision in activities of daily living or consistent nursing care.

At Allium Healthcare, we provide respite care for a few hours, a full day, several days or weeks depending on individual needs and interests. Our focus is on improving the quality of life for elders and caregivers.

RESIDENTIAL CARE

Allium Care Studio provides three-hour and full-day programmes in a nurturing and supervised environment. Designed to prevent mental and physical decline, improve function and enhance total well-being, our day care programmes deliver physical exercise, cognitive stimulation and personalised fun activities led by our Care Team of dedicated healthcare professionals.
