Sunsuria launches Sunsuria Care to provide medical support to its community

KUALA LUMPUR (March 16): Sunsuria Bhd has launched Sunsuria Care, a community-driven initiative, in a bid to provide basic medical services and support to its community.

The maiden project of the initiative is Sunsuria Care Hub, which is located at the Sunsuria City Celebration Centre in Sepang.

Sunsuria executive chairman Tan Sri Ter Leong Yap said in a press statement on Thursday (March 16): “Making well-being accessible extends to designing communal amenities and spaces with the considerations of everyone in the community in mind. We want our products and services to be inclusive, accessible and convenient to meet the different needs of the disabled, senior citizens and young parents.”

Sunsuria Care Hub, which is open daily, is managed by a doctor, assisted by two trained nurses, to facilitate the township’s residents in obtaining basic health advice services, either face-to-face or via a phone call, and WhatsApp. 

Services provided for residents at the centre include complementary vital signs assessment and first aid assistance. Residents may also request for home nursing services, and rent medical equipment from the centre at a minimal fee.

Ter added that Sunsuria Care Hub will also invite medical doctors to give health talks, chiropractic demonstrations, and first aid workshops to make essential healthcare knowledge accessible for all ages.

Moving forward, the developer aims to roll out more care hubs in its existing and upcoming developments.

Sunsuria Healthcare chief executive officer Audrey Ooi said: “With longer life expectancy and multigenerational living as the norm in Malaysia, the care hub is timely and relevant. With convenient and accessible home-based healthcare services, residents can care for their family’s well-being amid hectic work schedules and achieve work-life balance.”

Sunsuria is now looking to expand Sunsuria Care Hub into a medical clinic by the end of 2023, which will be located at Bell Avenue in Sunsuria City, offering integrated primary care services staffed by doctors and imaging equipment in-house. 

“We will not sacrifice long-term benefits for short-term gains. The company has a grand plan to expand the healthcare business,” said Ter.

He added that Sunsuria will also be incorporating senior-friendly features into their future developments, such as designated nursing rooms and medical suites in the common areas, as well as wheelchair-friendly facilities, such as mini-ramps, stretcher lifts, wider doorways and grab bars in the bathrooms.
