Residents of Tiong Bahru will also get a new, larger polyclinic by 2030.

SINGAPORE: Two new polyclinics in Bukit Panjang and Kallang opened their doors on Saturday , while a third will start operations in Eunos in December, the Ministry of Health said.

MOH must shift its focus to upstream preventive and early disease management to reduce downstream health complications, he said at the opening of the new Bukit Panjang Polyclinic on Saturday morning. They are also integrated with other healthcare facilities, providing an opportunity for"joint programming and collaborations that offer holistic care and improve health outcomes", said the ministry.

The eldercare facilities, with a capacity of 365 beds and 60 day care places, started operations in August. The new polyclinic will be more spacious, with elderly-friendly and accessibility features. It will provide"holistic and seamless" primary care services for residents in the region, said the ministry.

DONT KNOW WHY MOH IS NOT TAKING ANY ACTION FOR THE ELDERLY TO HAVE MANDATORY VACCINATION INSTEAD OF LIVING THEM TO DIE. THESE DEATHS ARE NOT GOOD FOR OUR ECONOMY AND TOURISM. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. TOO MANY DEATHS FOR A SMALL COUNTRY. Are these infections mostly in workers vaccinated with Astrazenica Coronavac and Sinopharm? Most active cases are found in dorm, no surprise....mainly Indian foreign workers. You can see them talking in public transport, mall...almost everywhere...when advise not to do so. This is their culture. Another kind of sovereign, loh. Nails into Singapore coffin....a quick RIP.
