Singapore is rapidly ageing.
Alongside declining family sizes and fertility rates, these demographic shifts challenge expectations that families can continue shouldering the bulk of the caregiving required for their elderly family members.
Taiwan has similar ageing trends to Singapore — in 2030, both territories expect almost one in four citizens to be aged 65 and above.There is therefore a strong demand for the development of senior-friendly housing, and this has contributed to Taiwan’s vibrant senior living landscape and many innovative models.The number of seniors in Malaysia aged 65 and above is expected to triple from two million to over six million by 2040.
Shuttle buses to nearby shopping and medical facilities encourage seniors to continue being independent and engaged in the community. Framing senior housing as retirement communities where they could enjoy their golden years flipped seniors’ perspectives to see that they were moving to live better and age well.
In Kuala Lumpur, Komune Living & Wellness not only caters to independent and assisted seniors, they also welcome guests and residents from all backgrounds, including families, digital nomads, and tourists. An upcoming development at Parry Avenue will house assisted living apartments, a nursing home, a wellness clubhouse and a geriatric care centre.For instance, Taipei Zhongshan Senior Residence and Service Centre is a three-in-one facility providing senior housing, dementia day care and home visits to seniors in the neighbourhood.
Such models enable a more efficient use of healthcare manpower, streamline service provision, and enable seamless transitions of care.
