CGH Programmes for patients

CareLine

CareLine is a 24/7 personal care telephone service by Changi General Hospital (CGH). It provides health and social support to seniors who may be living alone or are frail, and helps these seniors to keep safe at home. Click to find out how that works!

Community Nurse Post

Nurses from CGH are stationed at Community Nurse Posts in the heartlands to help seniors with chronic conditions manage their conditions beyond hospital walls.

Project Silver Screen (Functional Screening)

This national screening programme aims to detect functional decline in vision, hearing and oral health screening among seniors in the community early, and to provide timely follow-up as well as affordable assistive devices (i.e. spectacles, hearing aids and dentures) to seniors who need them.

Advanced Care Planning (ACP)

ACP initiative promotes open conversations between patients, their family and healthcare providers, on future care preferences should the patient become very ill one day.
