Virtual tour of CareLibrary
Receiving a dementia diagnosis is a lifechanging event.
While overwhelmed with uncertainty on the potential challenges to come, it is crucial to seek early intervention. At CareLibrary, we shred away stigma and promote cognitive wellness.
CareLibrary is a cognitive wellness programme methodologically designed for seniors with or at risk of cognitive impairment.
We believe every senior should be inspired to live an empowered and purposeful life.
With more than 50 types of cognitive activities for brain stimulation, we focus on strategically targeting specific cognitive domains to maintain the abilities of persons with dementia.
Every session is conducted in a vibrant and safe environment by our team of trained dementia care staff through a person-centred approach.
Our Objectives
- Improve cognitive and physical wellness of persons with dementia
- Maintain functional skills to perform daily activities
- Provide enriching social interactions for enhanced well-being
- Foster a heightened sense of purpose towards living

Caregiver Support
CareLibrary believes in supporting our caregivers through imparting them with the knowledge on dementia coping strategies that will enhance their caregiving journey.
We conduct virtual chat sessions for our caregivers to build a close-knit community of mutual support and intimate sharing.
Providing respite for our caregivers is essential to us. CareLibrary has a designated
Caregiver Support Corner where caregivers can rest or browse through our dementia care resources while your loved one is attending a CareLibrary session.
Virtual Services
Hour-long e-engagement sessions are available for seniors who thrive better in the confines of their home.
Depending on your loved one’s needs, CareLibrary provides different kinds of online engagements for seniors with dementia.
Physical Wellness Virtual Engagement
The physical wellness engagement incorporates exercises with therapeutic music to enhance physical fitness, hand-eye coordination and mental reflexes. Participants are also challenged with mentally stimulating movements to improve focus and attention span.
You may opt between a one to one session for undivided attention between our dementia care staff and your loved or a smaller group of four that will emulate the close, familiar setting of a physical class.
Cognitive Stimulation Virtual Engagement
The cognitive stimulation engagement incorporates a series of interactive activities from our specialised curriculum. It is designed with the aim of slowing down the mental decline of dementia in your loved one through exercises that stimulate specific domains of the brain.
Each session is conducted one-to-one to ensure your loved one is provided an individualised programme and person-centred care.
