Top 10 Nursing Homes in Singapore [2023]
Singapore is the largest port in Southeast Asia and one of the busiest in the world. It is a sovereign island country and city-state in maritime Southeast Asia. Singapore is located at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula, about 85 miles (137 kilometers) north of the Equator. Singapore is the fourth most overworked city in the world, according to a study by Kisi, an American security solutions company. Most Singaporeans experience the hurdles of juggling their work and personal life, not to mention if they also have to provide care for the elderly at home. Currently, 17.6 per cent of the population here are aged 65 and above, with many of whom have difficulties performing one basic activity such as self-care, and will require some form of care. Therefore, nursing home proves to be one of the very much services needed, especially among the working class community who are struggling to adequately fulfil their roles both at the workplace and at home. It becomes very challenging and stressful to find a point of balance between careers and families. This is where nursing homes, nursing care and home care services come in, to help fulfil the roles and ease the burdens. Choosing the right nursing home is a big decision, no matter if you need a nursing home personally or are looking for a high-quality nursing home for a loved one. To help you choose the right facilities located near you in Singapore, we put together the 10 best nursing homes list.

St Luke's ElderCare Residence is a Christian healthcare provider that delivers a full range of integrated services and programmes for the elders through their nursing home in Ang Mo Kio. They are the first 189-bedded residential care service that spans across 6 levels, accommodating 12 households (wards) in total. This is a residential care facility that provides long-term care for those who cannot be cared for at home or in their community. Other than nursing home, they also own over 20 eldercare centres in Singapore. St Luke's ElderCare Residence centers around empowering the elders to make their own choices according to their interests and lifestyle. Their unique care approach goes above and beyond the basic nursing home concept. For instance, to empower the elders to make decisions on their own, every household consisting of 12-16 elders will have their own kitchen appliances to enable them to make their own tea-breaks and snacks. Furthermore, the dining experience will include local hawker food choices and elders can expect an enhanced presentation of blended food to enable familiarity. They are located near to the bus stop ID 54229 and MRT Ang Mo Kio MRT station, as well as Khoo Teck Puat Hospital and Thomson Medical Centre, which are within the driving distance approximately of 16 minutes.

Customer reviews:
"The visit to Jewel was very well organised and carefully thought of with the elderly in mind. From the moment they stepped out of the centre, to the bus, the destination, toilet breaks and food; every detail was addressed with much care.
The team work amongst your staff was superb. They ensured the elderly were happily engaged, they shared jokes and had friendly chats. They scouted picture moments, snapped dozens of pictures for the elderly to capture the special memories; ensuring no one was missed out.
One point I took away that reinforces why you are so great at what you do is when your staff said "when I first joined, our manager said we must treat the elderly as our parents". With that said and ingrained into the caregivers within your centre, we entrust our parents with you, knowing you always have their best interest in mind." -Hong L.

Customer reviews:
"My mum was there initially for 2 weeks for Respite care as my helper had gone back for Home Leave. The nurses there took good care of my dementia mum such that this time she never complain and want to come home. When my helper didnt come back due to domestic problems back home, Diyana was such an Angel and lend a great helping hand to my family by continuing to take care of my mum at Orange Valley Marsiling while I source for a new helper. Diyana was always in the background assuring me and keeping my spirit up during this crisis. Thank you Diyana!"
