Service Learning at Toa Payoh SCHCC

Quite disappointed that the physiotherapist cannot go into details eldercare today. It seemed that there was a performance earlier on and the MP was an invited guest. The room which the physiotherapist used to brief the students was packed with the catered food and some of the staff were busy clearing it. He was not able to show us the exercise machines which the elderly used.

I hope you remember what is dementia and other illness which the senior citizens normally suffer from.

It must be a busy day for the staff and I think we have really chosen the wrong day to do our CIP. We had to cut short the time as the senior citizens had to go back early. I think some of you are not adequately prepared either though some did try to interact with the elderly.
