The Benefits

The first integrated development of a Regional Hospital and Community Hospital to facilitate seamless transition of care.

The co-location of the hospitals in a larger plot will allow for integration, co-management and smooth transfer of patients. The proximity will also be conducive for inter-mingling and information sharing between doctors and healthcare staff.
