About us

Our Story

One of the marvels of modern medicine is greater life expectancy. On average, Singaporeans are expected to live until 80, and for many, way beyond that. Yet the greatest irony of a longer life is that a larger part of it is spent with chronic disease, which can result in simple daily activities posing a challenge. We see the need to collectively build a more sustainable system of care for those whose hard work has made Singapore the Nation it is today - our revered elderly.

Precious Homes (formerly known as Pacific Healthcare Nursing Home) stands as one of Singapore's established nursing homes, dedicated to providing comprehensive eldercare solutions. As a vital part of this mission and duty, our nursing homes in Singapore are built to provide well-equipped facilities, trained staff, and the best possible care to not only enhance the physical wellbeing of our seniors but to also encourage them to experience the joys of life, social connection, and the spirit of community. Understanding the evolving needs of families in Singapore, we offer flexible care options including respite care services. This short-term care solution provides temporary relief for primary caregivers while ensuring their loved ones receive professional care in a nurturing environment. Whether it's for a few days or several weeks, our respite care program maintains the same high standards of care that defines all our services

Our Vision

To deliver patient-centric care based on our core values of care, compassion and medical excellence.

Our Mission

To maintain and improve the quality of life for our residents by serving them with diligence and professionalism

Our Motto

To Share 
To Serve 
To Support

In our nursing homes across Singapore, we focus on creating an environment that feels like home while providing professional medical care. Our dedicated team includes registered nurses, healthcare assistants, and therapy professionals who work together to deliver personalized care plans.

We understand that each senior has unique needs, preferences, and life stories, and we honor these differences in our approach to care. Through our holistic care philosophy, we address not just the physical needs but also the emotional and social well-being of our residents. From medical supervision and rehabilitation services to engaging social activities and festive celebrations, we strive to make every day meaningful for our seniors.

This comprehensive approach to elderly care has established Precious Homes as a trusted partner in Singapore's healthcare landscape, continuing the legacy of excellence built during our time as Pacific Healthcare Nursing Home
