Singapore is witnessing a revolution in eldercare with the launch of Perennial Living, the country's first private assisted living project. This ambitious initiative aims to redefine senior living, offering not just care but a vibrant community for the elderly to thrive.
A New Benchmark in Elderly Care
Perennial Living, developed by Perennial Holdings, is setting a new standard with its $260 million luxury assisted living project. Spanning 195,000 sq ft, it features the Perennial Wellness centre, providing medical care, TCM services, and five-star hospitality. The project's vision is to enhance the quality of life for seniors, not just their longevity.
Luxury Living for the Elderly
The assisted living apartments, ranging from 330 sq ft studios to 565 sq ft two-bedroom suites, come with high-end amenities. Each unit boasts high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and smart technologies like remote-controlled curtains and emergency response systems. The monthly rates start from $8,000 for studios and go up to over $13,000 for two-bedroom suites, reflecting the premium nature of this assisted living experience.
Comprehensive Care and Services
The assisted living package includes accommodation, housekeeping, meals, and access to amenities and activities. Additionally, residents have access to Perennial Wellness, which offers a range of medical services, including Western and TCM treatments, imaging, and rehabilitation therapies. The facility also features Singapore's first private GymTonic studio, a strength-training program designed to combat age-related muscle loss.
Memory Care and Therapeutic Spaces
Perennial Living incorporates memory care living spaces across two assisted living blocks and within its nursing block. These spaces offer dementia-focused TCM therapies and non-drug interventions. The therapeutic garden, designed with a continuous loop pathway, features a full-sized bus stop, traditional telephone booths, and a postbox, creating a unique and engaging environment for residents living with dementia.
A Community-Centric Approach
Perennial Living aims to build a community where seniors can live independently and with purpose. The facility encourages social interaction and meaningful lifestyle experiences. With a target of reaching 30% occupancy by August 2027, Perennial Living hopes to gain market acceptance and achieve 80% occupancy within two years, breaking even within the same timeframe.
Conclusion
Perennial Living's innovative approach to senior living showcases a commitment to enhancing the lives of the elderly. By combining luxury living, comprehensive medical care, and community-centric initiatives, it sets a new benchmark for private eldercare in Singapore. This project not only provides a high-quality living experience but also offers a supportive and engaging environment for seniors to thrive.
