“Our medical records will soon be fully electronic. We will be able to view complete patient records, including medical images, across SingHealth online, anywhere, anytime.   This will facilitate collaboration and continuity of care between healthcare professionals, specialties and institutions.

No more misplaced case notes, messy stacks of paper and illegible handwriting.   Whenever I can, I strongly champion the use of IT to increase the efficiency of our workflows and free our nurses of these administrative tasks, allowing them to focus on patient care.”
