About Salem Welfare Services
Salem Welfare Services is an eldercare provider offering elderly caregiver services across Singapore, with a base in Yishun Central. The listing has been verified by KakiList and is registered with ACRA, though no regulatory licences have been recorded on this listing and only one Google review is available, which is too small a sample to draw meaningful conclusions about service quality.
Families seeking eldercare support would typically begin with a care assessment to establish the elderly person's mobility, medical requirements, and daily living needs. Key decisions include whether care is needed on a visiting basis or on a live-in arrangement, the number of hours required each day, and whether the scope covers personal care, companionship, or clinical support. It is also worth confirming whether caregivers hold relevant nursing or caregiving certifications and whether any training in dementia or chronic condition management has been completed. Family members who are jointly making the decision should be involved in the initial conversation so that expectations around continuity, communication, and emergency protocols are agreed from the outset.
To take the next step, contact Salem Welfare Services directly by phone to discuss the care recipient's specific needs, confirm caregiver availability and qualifications, and arrange a trial period before committing to an ongoing arrangement.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Salem Welfare Services charge?›
Salem Welfare Services has not published specific pricing on this listing. As a general guide for Singapore eldercare, visiting caregiver services typically run S$20–35 per hour, with a minimum number of hours per visit. Live-in arrangements involve a combination of agency fee, caregiver salary, and — where a foreign domestic worker is involved — a monthly MOM levy and mandatory insurance. Public holiday surcharges are common, and some agencies charge a placement or administrative fee on top of the hourly rate. Confirm the full fee structure in writing, including any additional charges for clinical procedures such as tube feeding, wound care, or catheter management, before signing any agreement.

Live-in or visit-based — which does Salem Welfare Services offer?›
This listing does not specify whether Salem Welfare Services provides visiting caregivers, live-in caregivers, or both. For visiting arrangements, caregivers typically attend for two to eight hours per day depending on the care plan. Live-in care offers greater continuity, particularly for elderly persons with dementia or high dependency needs, but involves additional considerations around accommodation, rest days, and caregiver welfare. A trial period of one to two weeks is a reasonable request before committing to a longer arrangement. If the assigned caregiver is not a good fit — owing to communication style, skill level, or personality — confirm in advance whether a replacement can be arranged and within what timeframe. Contact Salem Welfare Services directly to clarify which models they offer and what the scope of each covers.
Is the caregiver trained and insured?›
No regulatory licences are recorded on this listing for Salem Welfare Services. For eldercare providers, relevant credentials include WSQ healthcare support certificates, dementia care training recognised by Dementia Singapore, and AIC-registered home care status for providers delivering clinical services under MOH frameworks. Caregivers handling clinical tasks such as wound dressing, feeding tubes, or medication administration should hold specific certifications. Insurance is an important consideration — confirm whether the caregiver is covered for work injury compensation and whether there is any liability cover in the event of an accident involving the care recipient. Ask these questions directly and request documentation before the caregiver begins work.
