SingHealth launches new Family Nexus in Punggol

It is the fourth Family Nexus facility in Singapore, serving as a one-stop community node.

SingHealth has opened the one-stop site Family Nexus@Punggol to offer health and social services for all demographics under one programme.

Located at SHP-Punggol, the Family Nexus@Punggol is a pilot platform co-chaired by the Ministry of Health, Singapore and MSF Singapore to offer social service through a one-stop community node.

Family Nexus@Punggol, under the Integrated Maternal and Child Wellness Hub (IMCWH), will offer development screening and vaccination for children and screening for maternal mental health, emotional health services and lactation support for mothers. It will also offer Families for Life resources, such as parenting programmes, support groups, and educational tools.  

With the opening of the latest Nexus at Punggol Polyclinic, there are currently four Family Nexus sites across Singapore. The others are located in the Our Tampines Hub, Choa Chu Kang Polyclinic and Keat Hong Community Centre, as well as Sembawang Polyclinic@Bukit Canberra.

This Family Nexus is one of the national strategies for Child and Maternal Health and Well-being that provides an array of curated activities, programmes and resources ranging from marriage preparation to parenthood.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
