About PAAC

About us

Precious Active Ageing Centre is a one-stop activity centre and serves as the main connecting point for seniors in the community. Our mission is to Engage, Enrich & Empower our Seniors to Live Actively and Age Joyfully.  We also work with various organisations to assist the less privileged and extend a helping hand to those in need.

 

Our centres provide the platform for seniors to remain physically active, mentally stimulated and socially connected.  Our programs include morning exercises, educational talks, communal dining as well as trips, both local and overseas. Through these activities, we aim foster a sense of belonging in the neighbourhood.​

​

Founded in 2014 by Dr William Chong in support of the Ministry of Health's effort to create an environment for seniors to "Age-in-place", Precious Active Ageing centres care for, and reach out to more than 8000 seniors each year.  So come join us and be a part of our family. Life is Precious.​​​

Dr William Chong

Our Founder

Dr. William Chong graduated from the National University of Singapore in 1985 with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery, and distinction in the fields of Operative Dentistry, Medicine and Oral Surgery.  He was also awarded the Malaysian Dental Association Medal, the Singapore Dental Association President’s Medal and the University Bronze Medal. He obtained his Master of Dental Science from the National University of Singapore, his research field being Bone Regeneration and Dental Implants. He also qualified as Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons in 1999.

In 2004, as part of his fundamental belief of the need for every able person to contribute  meaningfully to society, Dr. Chong purpose-built two Nursing Homes, offering round the clock residential care for the elderly sick. Additionally, in 2014, he established nine Senior Activity Centres, throughout Singapore to provide a safe and welcoming environment for the elderly to gather and engage in activities, enabling them to remain physically fit, mentally active and socially connected. The services has since been expanded to provide a more comprehensive approach to enable Active Ageing.

In 2019, Dr Chong established Precious Medical Centre which offers a one-stop solution including specialist healthcare, comprehensive diagnostic imaging services and also a day surgery centre with operating theatres for general anaesthesia and endoscopy.

 

In 2023, Precious Group expanded our efforts to provide the best possible care for our patients and the community. We are grateful for the support of His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim of Johor, the Yang di-Pertuan Agong of Malaysia and look forwards to providing similar services in Johor. Today, Dr. Chong continues to lead with passion and support the causes closest to his heart - the advancement of health, the enrichment of lives of the elderly and support for those in need.
