NUS students help seniors age well at home

The Community Health Angels Mentoring Programme, formed through a collaboration between NUS and charity Montfort Care’s @27 Family Service Centre, enables Pharmacy students to apply what they have learnt to real-life situations, and to understand the needs of seniors better. The programme, headed by Dr Yap Kai Zhen from the Department of Pharmacy at the NUS Faculty of Science, started with nine students and has now trained 80 in total.
