Nine months after welcoming clients, MWS Senior Care Centre (SCC) – Eunos marked its official opening on 3 Nov 2022 with a ceremony graced by Minister for Culture, Community and Youth Mr Edwin Tong. 

Co-located with Eunos Polyclinic, MWS SCC – Eunos offers day care and community rehabilitation services to help frail seniors age in place. About 70 per cent of the SCC’s day care slots are catered to those with dementia.

Minister Tong spoke on the timeliness of the SCC’s opening in addressing the healthcare needs of a rapidly ageing population. The SCC gives seniors “a sense of home, and a space to age gracefully with dignity and confidence that they are being cared for,” said Mr Tong, who is also Second Minister for Law. 

He added that “how we look after the seniors who age in our society is a strong marker for how gracious we are as a society”.
