Mdm Ng's Story
Mdm Ng is a participant of CareLibrary, a Cognitive Intervention Programme. CareLibrary is run by the social service agency Care Community Services Society, and is designed for seniors with or at risk of cognitive impairment.
Mdm Ng’s daughter, who is also her caregiver, shared these thoughts about the programme:
“I highly recommend CareLibrary for anyone looking for a supportive and engaging environment for their loved ones. My mother was very reluctant to attend the Library at first, but after her first assessment, she was very comfortable with the environment and staff. Despite needing some coaxing for her first session, she quickly came to enjoy the activities offered and did not resist attending subsequent sessions. The music and art activities have been a highlight for my mother, who now even displays her creations at home.
The staff at CareLibrary, especially Ms. Han, went above and beyond to accommodate my mother’s transportation needs, and have been an invaluable resource for me as a caregiver. Ms. Han offered suggestions and options that have made caregiving a much easier experience for our family. The CareLibrary has provided my mother with an opportunity to engage in activities and not stay at home all day.
I am truly grateful for the positive impact CareLibrary has had on my mother and our family. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a caring and supportive environment for their loved ones.”
