- Patients who have suffered a mild to moderate stroke will be getting more help to reintegrate into the community. Up to 2,000 patients and their caregivers will benefit from a new programme by the National Neuroscience Institute (NNI) that will be rolled out next year. The Temasek Foundation is putting in $1.4 million to fund it for three years. Stroke survivors will go through a four-module empowerment course to build their confidence. The programme will be introduced at the Singapore General Hospital and Tan Tock Seng Hospital. CNA spoke to Assoc Prof Deidre Anne de Silva, senior consultant of neurology at the NNI, and stroke survivor Reema Bhatti.
*Excellent news and all respect to PAP for supporting this noble move*
Prof Paul Tambyah, “healthcare is treated like a commodity where people avoid important primary healthcare services because of the costs and end up spending a lot of money treating complications that could have been prevented”.
As a medical professional, I feel that this is not right. We should ensure that there is equal treatment for all, care based on clinical need and not on ability to pay.”
