Bukit Batok Nursing Home, also known as Bukit Batok Care Home, is a 220-bed nursing home at 11 Bukit Batok West Avenue 9, within HDB’s West Rock estate, with a co-located senior care centre offering 60 day care places. Completed in 2019, the facility is Singapore’s fourth government-run nursing home and has been operated by Vanguard Healthcare since it began operations in April 2019.
Designed around an “A Home in a Garden” concept, the facility incorporates dementia friendly wards organised in smaller clusters with decentralised day spaces and communal living rooms to encourage interaction among residents, alongside abundant greenery intended to create a healing and restorative living environment. A public communal plaza connects the nursing home and senior care centre to the surrounding neighbourhood, with pedestrian access through to a nearby HDB park and senior fitness corner.
BIM QA/QC checks and BIM consultancy were carried out for client Guan Ho Construction, supporting quality assurance of the coordinated model across the facility’s residential wards, day care centre, and shared communal spaces.
