KUCHING: Homage care services provider has recently announced its most significant expansion in Malaysia yet with new footprints in locations across Perak, Sabah and Sarawak.
Homage also aims to grow its pool to 11,000 caregivers, nurses, and therapists nationwide by the end of 2022 and to partner with more organisations and health institutions to decentralise the healthcare burden in Malaysia as well as pave the way for all Malaysians to access quality step-down healthcare at their fingertips.
“In tandem with the recent Series C fundraising round in September 2021 and marking its third year in Malaysia, Homage’s latest expansion to more locations in 2022 such as Perak, Sabah and Sarawak will look to bring home care to more Malaysians.
“Homage will ensure that people from all walks of life who need proper care such as post-surgery patients, or those recovering from long-term injuries can receive it in the comfort and safety of their own homes.”
Homage develops a personalised care plan and uses a proprietary matching engine to pair the care recipients with the best-matched care professionals (a skilled pool of nurses, caregivers, and therapists).
Families can receive real-time updates on their loved one’s care and manage bookings and reports via Homage’s mobile app.
Homage’s range of services includes Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) such as showering and toileting assistance, companionship, night care; nursing care such as wound and stoma care, as well as medical escort services to doctors’ appointments, and hospital visits.
“The pandemic has shown us just how important it is to ensure that people can receive quality care where they feel safest and are most comfortable – their homes.
“Homage is committed to answering the call for more equalised access to good healthcare and our expansion to more Peninsular cities, as well as our larger footprint in East Malaysia, is just the first step.
“We know that it is a joint effort to create true ecosystem impact, which is why Homage is also eager to work with other like-minded organisations and institutions within the community to help more seniors and family members across Malaysia enjoy a better quality of life,” said PC Gan, country manager of Homage Malaysia.
