00:56 - This is a purpose built facility.
01:05 It's not, you know, an old hotel
01:07 or service apartment converted.
01:10 We purposely built it
01:12 and the uniqueness is it's next to the medical center.
01:15 So in case a resident run into any health problems,
01:20 the hospital staff will come in
01:23 or they can be transferred into the hospital
01:25 as soon as possible.
01:27 But more important is we actually have home care services
01:30 where we have teams of doctors, nurses,
01:33 dietitian, physiotherapists
01:35 who can actually come into this center.
01:38 Apart from that, we also have a wellness center
01:40 where we can do basic screening, routine screening.
01:43 At the same time, at each residential floor,
01:46 we actually have what we call residential care associates
01:50 where they are trained professionals
01:54 to attend to the needs of the residents day to day.
01:57 (upbeat music)
02:06 Because there is no one product at this point of time,
02:10 and I do believe we're the first,
02:12 that actually has a senior living residence
02:15 that is annexed directly to a hospital.
02:18 So that makes us stand out.
02:20 And also with our various services that we do
02:24 in terms of our resident care associates,
02:26 where we provide round the clock care
02:29 and who are actually healthcare professionals
02:32 that come over to this site,
02:33 we tend to actually then be able to give
02:36 a different, I would say, not a very medical feel,
02:39 but a very hospitality feel,
02:42 but not forgetting that background of healthcare.
02:44 As a senior, you are worried.
02:47 If your children are not around, emergency sets in.
02:49 And then we know, like in big cities,
02:51 all the traffic jam,
02:52 maybe too late for you to get to a hospital.
02:54 So next to a healthcare center like this is really useful.

03:22 (upbeat music)
03:25 (upbeat music)
03:35 (upbeat music)
03:49 (upbeat music)
03:51 Because each and every one person, again, is different.
04:01 Their needs are different.
04:03 But what we could do and can do
04:06 is to come up with a lifestyle modification program
04:11 that suits each and every individual, right?
04:14 And they go through with our healthcare professionals
04:17 at Sunway Medical Center, with our colleagues
04:20 here at the Wellness Center, our recreation team,
04:23 whom we also have got certified personal trainers, right?
04:27 And we can come up with a whole holistic
04:30 lifestyle modification program
04:33 to achieve a healthier version of themselves.
04:35 Everyone here, actually, I'm very happy to say,
04:37 brings a certain level of passion, patience
04:42 into what they do.
04:43 And also because we are hiring,
04:45 I'm proud to say that all of our staff
04:48 are actually Malaysian, right?
04:50 And us being in a Malaysian community,
04:52 we grew up with our grandparents.
04:56 We grew up, and we're very respectful.
04:58 We always call people, "Hello, auntie.
05:00 Hello, uncle."
05:01 So it's actually first nature for us
05:04 to be able to respect an elder person.
05:07 (upbeat music)
05:09 (upbeat music)
05:12 So this is our first project.
05:39 The plan is to have a network
05:41 of independent assisted living facilities
05:44 as part of our integrated community development projects.
05:49 As you know, Sunway is really a master community developer.
05:53 If this uptake is good, is a good standard,
05:56 and it fits in with our values and vision,
06:01 the next thing we would like to do
06:02 is to have it in our other projects.
06:05 So like, for example, we have a land in Kota Damansara.
06:09 We have land in Ipoh, in Iskandar.
06:12 Yeah, so that's our plan.
