Lions Nursing Home (Kuching)
Kuching, Sarawak
MOH-licensed 60-bed Kuching nursing home (per MOH Google Sheet 19 Mar 2026), 7 km from city centre near Tabuan Jaya, Stampin and BDC. NGO-affiliated with Lions Club community support.
About
Lions Nursing Home Kuching is one of Sarawak’s oldest community-supported nursing homes, affiliated with the Lions Club movement. The facility sits 7 km from Kuching’s city centre on Jalan Stutong Baru, close to the Tabuan Jaya, Stampin, and BDC residential corridors. Confirmed MOH-licensed at 60 beds per the Ministry of Health’s licensed private nursing homes Google Sheet (last updated 19 March 2026).
Care & services
Long-term residential nursing care in a community-supported environment. Specific clinical capabilities (NG/PEG feeding, dementia secure, palliative) should be confirmed via direct enquiry given the operator’s website was intermittently unreachable during verification. The Borneo Post has covered the home historically and the Lions Club community has periodically run financial support appeals.
What families should know
This is one of only four MOH-licensed nursing homes in all of Sarawak (alongside Eden on the Park, Rejang Nursing Care Sibu, and Tabuan Healthcare). For families wanting Ministry-of-Health verification rather than just JKM registration or AgeCOPE membership, that’s a meaningful trust signal. The community-supported NGO model means costs are typically lower than for-profit operators, and donations / volunteer support are welcomed.
Location
Jalan Stutong Baru, 93250 Kuching - 7 km from central Kuching, well-positioned for visiting from Tabuan Jaya, Stampin, and Bandar Damai Commercial (BDC). Approximately 15 minutes from Sarawak General Hospital.

How we determined this licensing status
MOH-licensed - confirmed in MOH Licensed Private Nursing Homes Google Sheet (last updated 19 Mar 2026, 60 beds at Lot 3476, Block 11, Jalan Stutong Baru). Operator-website (lionsnursinghome.org.my) confirms operations though was unreachable during direct verification - multiple third-party directories (Borneo Post, Yelp, Waze, Bay Directory) corroborate.
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.
