How do we get there
Patient empowerment and community help programs are becoming more common in hospitals. This is because they are seen as a way to improve the patient’s experience and to reduce the workload of the hospital staff.
These programs involve a combination of patient support services, such as physiotherapy, podiatry and diagnostic radiology, which are provided by the community on an unpaid basis. Patients who require follow-up treatments have been given appointments at the new Bedok Polyclinic or at a nearby polyclinic of their choice. The new polyclinic is located in Bedok North and offers same day treatment during the two day. Patients who require same day treatment can visit the polyclinic located at Changi Village. During the two day closure period, 28 and 29 July, are advised to visit general practitioners and dental clinics near their homes.
