800 seniors to benefit from new dementia prevention programme at active ageing centres

The IMPRESS-MIND2S programme is funded to the tune of about $3 million by the National Innovation Challenge on Active and Confident Ageing grant.

It is set to be piloted at the NTUC Health active ageing centre in Redhill in August, with 60 seniors benefiting from the programme.

The initiative, launched by healthcare cluster SingHealth, was announced by Senior Minister of State for Health Tan Kiat How on May 30 at the SingHealth Community Forum held at Singapore General Hospital.

Under the programme, community nurses will use established screening tools like tests to detect those who have mild cognitive impairment and will benefit from the programme.
