- Clinic Services (Vital observations such as blood pressure, blood sugar test, weight control, gym trim, etc)
- Arts & Crafts
- Spiritual Focus
- Meals
- Outings
- Social (Valentine’s Day, Spring Day, etc)
- Entertainment
We currently have Senior Centres in Lavender Hill, Retreat, and Plumstead.
Our elderly are a wellspring of wisdom we have access to for only a short span of time. The great Mahatma Gandhi is quoted as saying: “The true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members.” This quote speaks directly to the vision shared here at PlumRus, where we allow our guests the dignity and respect they are due. The elderly are no different from the rest of us, still craving that companionship and social engagement provided by their peers.
To that end we have partnered with various churches to establish Senior Centres in vulnerable communities. The programmes we have on offer include clinic services, meals, outings, social events, entertainment and various other fun-filled activities. Clinic services take into account vital observations that include blood pressure monitoring, blood sugar testing and weight checking.
No one should have to go through the day on an empty stomach and meals play an important role in fulfilling that obligation. Being cooped up all day is also not conducive to cultivating a happier mindset, which is why we arrange little outings to add a refreshing change of space.
Social events are another important part of our calendar and just because most of our elderly met their soulmates decades ago, there is no reason why they can’t enjoy days like Valentine’s Day for instance. A spiritual focus is also woven into everything we do at PlumRus as a reminder to give thanks and be grateful for every moment we get to spend with those we love.
