Question 1 of 2
Where do you want care to happen?
Think about their home situation and what your family can realistically manage.
Question 2 of 2
Understanding your options
🏘️ Assisted Living
For seniors still largely self-sufficient. They can bathe, dress, and eat on their own — they want company, cooked meals, and someone nearby.
🏥 Nursing Home
For seniors who need hands-on help with bathing, dressing, eating, or moving — or have ongoing medical needs like wound care, dementia, or post-stroke recovery.
How much help do they need with daily tasks?
Think about bathing, dressing, eating, and moving safely.
Best fit for your situation
🏡 Professional Home Care
Care comes to them. A trained caregiver or visiting nurse handles personal care, medication, and light nursing at home.
💰
From RM29–RM40/hour or RM2,500/month for regular packages.
Why this fits
Keeps their independence — residential care would remove that unnecessarily.
Start with a few hours a day and scale up as needs grow. A nursing home later is always an option.
Their needs have reached a level where round-the-clock nursing is the right answer. A licensed nursing home is the next step.
⚠️ Verify the licence before committing.
Most Malaysian facilities are JKM-registered (Act 506). Only a small number hold a full MOH nursing home licence (Act 586) for clinical procedures. If your parent needs tube feeding, wound care, or catheter management, ask to see the licence on the tour.
💰
RM2,000–RM8,000/month standard to skilled nursing. Room type, care level, and location move the price a lot.
Why this fits
Clinical or supervisory needs exceed what home care or assisted living can safely deliver.
This is a responsible call, not a failure — 24-hour nursing is safer than struggling at home with complex needs.
