NUHS app adds emergency wait times, pre-arrival health declarations

The platform also includes a location-based tool to identify nearby clinics.

The National University Health System has rolled out new digital features in its app that provide information on emergency wait times and enable health declarations to be completed before arrival.

Patients heading to the emergency departments (EDs) of National University Hospital, Ng Teng Fong General Hospital, or Alexandra Hospital’s (AH) Urgent Care Centre (UCC) can complete a health declaration form in the app.

The form allows users or their caregivers to input relevant information such as symptoms and recent travel history.

The app also provides real-time information on estimated wait times at the EDs and AH UCC, with wait times refreshed every 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, those uncertain whether symptoms warrant a hospital visit can access the NurseFirst helpline via the platform.

Furthermore, the app includes a location-based tool to identify nearby clinics, including GPFirst and PaedsENGAGE facilities, within a two-kilometre radius.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
