With the successful tenders of two plots of land at Bukit Merah and Senja
Road (Bukit Panjang), Pacific Healthcare has ventured into yet another
arena of health service, that is, care for the elderly.
The four-storey nursing homes, will be built on 2,000 square meters of
land and have the capacity to provide short and long term care for 260
patients each. These purpose built facilities, each costing about $12
million, will feature state-of-the-art amenities and offer a high level
of nursing and medical care.
The nursing home at the Bukit Merah site is expected to be completed
by late 2004. To ensure that the services in the nursing home are accessible
to the public, more than half of the beds will be dormitory beds. The
home at Senja Road is expected to be ready by early 2006.
