Good health, good mind, good family, good friends and good community lead to good living.

GoodLife! aims to provide just that for our seniors. The centre takes a holistic approach to active ageing by organising activities that address both the physical and mental wellness of our seniors.

The centre also reaches out to seniors living alone to ensure they are provided with necessary assistance and support to age-in-place.

These programmes include:
1. Community Resource, Engagement and Support Team (CREST)
CREST serves as a community network for people with dementia and depression, as well as caregivers who need the additional support to care for their loved ones. CREST links the community and residents with the appropriate mental health care and social support networks through outreach and education.

2. Casework & Counselling Services
A dedicated team of social workers assess the needs of the elderly and link senior citizens or caregivers to the relevant community resources.

3. Care Closer to Home (CACHE)
CACHE’s goal is to bring healthcare closer to home for the elderly aged 50 years old and above, diagnosed with one or more chronic illnesses. With support and guidance from our healthcarers, the elderly clients’ health conditions are monitored on a regular basis and the clients are taught to manage their medication and wellbeing.

4. Befriending
A committed team of trained senior volunteers work closely with our staff to conduct regular home visits to other seniors in the community and their caregivers who need assistance and support.

5. GoodLife! Maka
Located at Block 52 Marine Terrace, GoodLife! Makan is a community kitchen with a twist. With food as the talking point, the centre offers a place for stay alone seniors to prepare, cook and share their meals with one another. More importantly, the centre is a space for conversations, learning and companionship. In addition to food, the centre also provides learning opportunities for seniors to rediscover their potential through participation and meaningful engagement with the community.
