Day Hospice:

An Oasis for All

Our day hospices see to our patients’ needs in the day, providing a range of programmes and activities to suit different interests and functioning levels.

HCA Hospice currently operates two Day Hospices:

Kang Le Day Hospice

Oasis@Outram Day Hospice

At our day hospices, patients interact with others and engage in constructive and therapeutic activities. Programmes are tailored according to the interests and abilities of each patient and include:

Light exercises and physiotherapy

Pet assisted befriending

Virtual reality simulation

Music therapy

Outings to places of interest

Horticulture

Art and craft sessions

Make-believe outings

Movie sessions

A Sanctuary of Growth

Once a week, the neon lights at The Tap buzz to life. It’s Happy Hour for our patients and caregivers at Oasis@Outram, our newest day hospice, which formally began operations in July 2021.

Apart from the weekly Happy Hour, attendees can opt for pampering sessions at the Spalon, or engage in a spot of horticulture at the Greenhouse. All of these diverse streams of activities are made available to patients and caregivers, young and old, who can decide what they prefer for the day.

The paradigm of care at Oasis@Outram is anchored upon three ‘D’s – Dignity, Diversity and Development. By regarding patients as active agents of their personal growth, and not just passive recipients of care, Oasis@Outram redefines what it means to live meaningfully, even at the end of life.
