We propose strategies to strengthen community partnerships, invest in trust-based engagement and embed robust evaluation frameworks informed by implementation science. Singapore's experience offers actionable insights for health systems seeking to design scalable, community-rooted models for healthy ageing that integrate social and healthcare services.
