Air Purification Systems: Where possible, we have implemented advanced air filtration systems to improve indoor air quality and reduce potential risks.
Health Monitoring and Screening

Resident Health Checks: Daily monitoring ensures that any health concerns are identified and addressed promptly.
Visitor Screening: All visitors are kindly asked to follow a quick health screening process, including temperature checks, to ensure the safety of everyone in our care.
Visitor Safety Measures
