Dementia Care
Understanding Dementia
Dementia can be overwhelming, not only for the people who have it but also for their carers and families.
At Orange Valley Nursing Homes, we understand the emotional, social and psychological challenges faced by those with dementia, as well as their loved ones who are caring for them. As a dementia care provider in Singapore, we aim to take the stress of caregiving off your shoulders by delivering the best possible care to your elderly loved ones grappling with dementia.
Our Dementia Care Team
At Orange Valley, our trained dementia care team offers a personalised programme for persons with dementia. From dementia day care services to private care arrangements, our team of professionals is trained and equipped to help your loved ones build confidence and regain independence. We employ a series of engaging activities and positive interactions, stimulating our client’s minds to enhance their quality of life.
Our Dementia Care Programmes:
VIVA FITNESS PROGRAMME
For residents with dementia, we focus on HOME (Healing of Mind through Engagement Program). We tweak the Viva Fitness Programme, an award-winning programme at the Singapore Health Quality Service Awards, to focus more on cognitive activities.
Our structured programme offers various incentive-based activities to encourage residents to participate. Examples include cooking, reminiscence therapy, music therapy etc. Participation allows residents to exchange for incentives such as food and drink items.
For bed bound residents, a variety of activities were purposely curated to meet their curated needs (physical, cognitive, spiritual/cultural, sensory, emotional) based on their interests.
