六十多歲的岑女士談吐温文,精神不錯,在「喜頤閣」初次見面,看不出她曾接受化療。岑女士習慣獨立生活,也很懂得為自己及早計劃,在接受化療前,已決定入住護理安老院。「那時候決定進行化療,知道化療後身體需要一段時間休養,而且需要專業及適切的照顧,若獨處家中時身體不適,會很不便,家人亦會擔心。」選擇安老院的過程並不簡單,需考慮環境及服務能否配合個人起、居、飲、食的需要,還有環境是否適合休養等。
岑女士參觀過幾間院舍,亦曾考慮聘請家傭在家照顧,但考慮到家傭非專業的護理員,而且不能24小時支援她,最後選擇了香港房屋協會轄下的「喜頤閣」。「當初曾考慮入住房協另一間院舍『安頤閣』的,那裡環境也很好,但家人都在九龍灣一帶居住,這裡較方便他們來探望。」化療後身體曾十分虛弱,需要較多照料,「喜頤閣」提供24小時照顧及護理服務,亦有護士當值,讓岑女士及家人都很放心。「曾經有幾次身體不適入院,慶幸來了這裡,不用麻煩家人,減少他們為我擔心。」
