Be A Volunteer At United Medicare Centre (UMC) With Bryan

This initiative was mooted by Bryan Laoshi and supported by SingTrain Academy as part of our Corporate Social Responsibilities. As Bryan in currently in KL, I proceeded to meet up with Ms Tan, Nursing Director of UMC this morning.

She welcomes the idea of our students offering Volunteering Work at UMC Centre. The Centre , located at Lorong 6 Toa Payoh is the first purpose-built 240-bedded private nursing home which was initiated by the Ministry of Health. The 5-storey compound is professionally managed with proper Physiology Room, Guest Lobby, Residents Room as well as a Roof Garden. I have discussed with Ms Tan and have identified the Roof Garden as the most appropriate place to offer Touch Therapy and Hand Reflexology to the residents.

While Bryan and myself worked on the details on how we should approach this voluntary initiative and review how this would benefits the general health condition of the elderly, as well as the practical skills set and voluntary spirit of our students, I have taken some photos for your viewing.

Give some thots to it and let us know if you are keen to be part of our Volunteer Scheme!
