Integrated polyclinics open in Bukit Panjang and Kallang

Two polyclinics that are colocated with related facilities officially opened yesterday, one in Bukit Panjang and the other in Kallang.

Bukit Panjang Polyclinic is integrated with Senja Care Home, while Kallang Polyclinic is joined with Kwong Wai Shiu Hospital.

Senja Care Home has 365 beds and 60 day-care places, offering community rehabilitation and physiotherapy. Kwong Wai Shiu’s long-term care facility has 128 beds, for patients who have advanced and complicated chronic medical conditions that require long-term nursing and frequent medical care.

A polyclinic slated to open in Eunos in December will also be co-located with a senior care centre.

Health Minister Ong Ye Kung, who officially opened Bukit Panjang Polyclinic, said: “By co-locating polyclinics with healthcare facilities or community facilities, which include amenities such as sports centres, we open up opportunities to develop joint programmes that cater to holistic care and improve the health of the population.”
