About

Kee Ann Care Centre (KACC) is the Melaka subsidiary of the Johnson Residence chain - the same operator that runs JR Pro (KL), JR My Place (Ipoh), Turf View (Penang), JR Kuantan, and JR Segamat. The Melaka branch sits in heritage downtown Melaka on Jalan Kee Ann, a 3-minute walk to the Malacca River and surrounded by the eateries, pharmacies, and medical centres of the old town.

Care & services

24-hour eldercare across single, double, and triple-bedded rooms. The clinical and wellness scope is broader than the price tier suggests: physiotherapy, speech therapy, acupuncture, and Chinese pressure-point reflexology run alongside standard nursing care. Hospital transport is offered for additional charge. Mandarin-speaking enquiries are handled on a separate line (+60 12-988 7429), useful for the Chinese-speaking residents and family members who form a large portion of Melaka’s senior demographic.

What families should know

The downtown heritage location is unusual and worth highlighting - many Melaka care centres are in suburban Klebang or Bukit Baru, far from the historical city centre. For families wanting visiting access combined with restaurants, pharmacies, and Malacca River strolls, KACC is the only option in our directory at this proximity. The four published certifications (BOMBA fire safety, KKM building, MBMB council, SSM company) are a useful trust signal even without an explicit JKM number.

Location

Jalan Kee Ann, 75100 Melaka - heritage downtown corridor near Kampung Jawa, 3 minutes walk to the Malacca River, walking distance to Jonker Walk, and approximately 10 minutes from Mahkota Medical Centre and Hospital Melaka.

How we determined this licensing status

AgeCOPE member confirmed at agecope.org.my (membership requires JKM registration verification). Operator publishes BOMBA (fire safety), KKM (Ministry of Health building cert), MBMB (Melaka City Council), and SSM (company registration) certifications. Specific JKM registration number not publicly listed.

Licensing status can change — licences expire, transfer to new operators, or get renewed under a different legal entity. We cross-reference public sources to be as accurate as possible, but always ask to see the physical certificate during your tour. For JKM, ask for the Perakuan Pendaftaran Pusat Jagaan. For MOH, ask for the CKAPS approval letter.

Operators: email your certificate to hello@seniorlivingmalaysia.org and we will upgrade this listing to a Verified ✓ badge showing the certificate date. While you're at it — one line on cultural fit (halal kitchen, surau, Mandarin-speaking staff, dietary accommodations) helps the families who specifically search for that.
