Daniel Martin discusses with geriatrician Dr Carol Tan from The Good Life Medical Centre what options exist for seniors who need more support than living independently, but don't require nursing-home care and whether Singapore has an affordable middle ground.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
