The Network of Care program, now integrated into the Green Hearth Initiative, focuses on personalized and individualized support for participants. It includes components that address specific needs, high-touch support, and assistance for individuals at high risk.

Support at Green Hearth is tailored to individual needs:

• Engaging in activities for comfort and tranquility
• Sharing heartful meals for a sense of community
• Fostering human connections through reassurance and care
• Encouraging open communication and trust
• Guiding self-reflection and decision-making
• Facilitating meaningful conversations
• Providing games and relaxation activities
• Meeting basic needs
• Creating a serene environment for those in crisis

The program involves trained staff, dedicated volunteers, and strategic partners. Trained professionals and caregivers work closely with partners and agencies to provide coordinated support. Family involvement is facilitated if desired. Our role is to act as a bridge and temporary refuge, offering tailored aid and assistance through collaboration with agencies. The program prioritizes individual autonomy and needs for effective crisis intervention.

• Green Hearth will have two in-residence senior management staff.
• There will be CCTVs throughout the facility (except Toilets/Showers)

We support family involvement if preferred. Our purpose is to serve as an interim connection and a temporary sanctuary, providing personalized aid and help through partnering with agencies.

In case of emergencies, the following steps will be taken:

• Immediate medical attention will be sought at the nearest medical facility.
• Immediate family members will be updated about the situation.
• References to the caseworker will be provided for coordination.
• In more critical situations, involvement of organizations like IMH (Institute of Mental Health) or SKGH (Sengkang General Hospital) or TTSH (Tan Tock Seng Hospital) may be necessary for appropriate support and intervention.

We are open every day, including weekends and public holidays.

We currently have two rooms – one for boys and one for girls. Each room can accommodate up to three residents comfortably. The rooms are fully air-conditioned and equipped with cupboards for storage. For safety measures, there are CCTV cameras installed.

Absolutely, meals and tea breaks are provided. In fact, residents might even have the opportunity to prepare some meals themselves as part of our program. We are more than willing to cater to specific medical or religious dietary needs as well. Your comfort and well-being are important to us.

Certainly, residents are encouraged to engage in their religious practices, including prayer. If any special equipment, like prayer mats, or a quiet corner is required, we can arrange that upon request. Please note that all accommodations are tailored to individual needs and preferences. Your comfort and religious practices are respected and supported.

Yes, visits by parents, guardians, social workers, relevant authorities, and agencies can be arranged based on the specific circumstances and needs of the resident. We will work closely with the involved agencies to determine the best approach for each individual case. Your well-being and support system are important to us, and we strive to create a supportive environment for everyone involved.
