Giving Care To The Chronically Ill, Frail, And Destitute
"I am at peace because I know that my family here will care for me till the end. When my time is up, I trust that they will look after my last rites."

“I suffer from Spondylitis (an inflammation of joints of the backbone) since birth. My parents abandoned me when I was very young. I lived with my grandmother till her passing. After she died, I spent nights sleeping at the coffee shop where I worked at as I had nowhere else to go.
I was then referred to MWS Christalite Methodist Home. I was only in my thirties then and stayed there for 20 years. I had a roof over my head, regular meals and fellow residents for companionship while I worked to support myself.
Unfortunately, my illness got worse and doctors advised me to stop working to reduce the pain. Eventually in 2018, I was transferred to MWS Nursing Home – Yew Tee. The nurses, social workers and volunteers here are like the family I never had. I am thankful for the care and support I have received from MWS over the last 25 years.
