Many have stepped up to share workload of healthcare workers
This forum reply was first published by the Ministry of Health, Singapore on February 24, 2022.
Some have been deployed into support care roles, where their nursing background is put to good use in a range of basic clinical tasks, and assisting patients with activities of daily living. Others have received just-in-time training and taken up more specialised roles in vaccination and swab testing operations.
Anyone can play a part during this period, both healthcare professionals and laypeople. We thank all who have stepped forward. Their contributions and expertise have been an invaluable help.
Interested individuals who are committed and available to help us can sign up via the SG Healthcare Corps at www.go.gov.sg/shc-covidops.
