About this facility
Pusat Jagaan Harian Warga Tua Cheras Baru is a community day care centre for older adults located at Lot 3716, Jalan 17, Off Jalan Kuari, Kampung Cheras Baru, 56100 Kuala Lumpur. Unlike a residential nursing home, this is a daytime-only service: opening hours are Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, closed on weekends. The contact line is +60 3-4297 0316 (with a published mobile 012-643 7XXX). It is registered as a non-profit (Persatuan/association) rather than a commercial operator, and has been running long enough to host structured community programmes with university and teacher-training groups.
Operationally, the centre runs daytime activities for ambulant seniors rather than skilled nursing. Verified programmes documented in community-service reports include light aerobics, sports and recreation, and intergenerational activities run with visiting trainee teachers (one published report involved 63 student volunteers). The model fits seniors who live with family but need structured daytime supervision, social interaction, and basic supervised activity, rather than residents needing 24-hour nursing or post-stroke rehab.
This centre is most useful for KL families in the Cheras / Setapak / Wangsa Maju catchment whose elderly relative is mobile and continent but at risk of isolation, falls, or loneliness when the family is at work. Before enrolling, ask: daily/monthly fee and whether transport is provided; staff-to-senior ratio and whether anyone with nursing training is on site; whether the centre accepts mild dementia (and how they handle wandering); meal arrangements and halal status; what happens medically if a senior falls or becomes unwell during the day; and whether the centre is registered with JKM as a Pusat Jagaan Harian under Act 506.
