SINGAPORE – Changi General Hospital (CGH) and Sengkang General Hospital (SKH) are seeing a high number of patients at their emergency departments, and this has resulted in longer waiting times. In a notice on its website, Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) said that there are longer than usual waiting times at the emergency department, and that admission may require a few hours. Only people with serious or life-threatening emergencies should go to its emergency department, CGH and SKH said on May 14 in separate social media posts. This allows medical professionals to attend to those with critical conditions and in need of emergency care. CGH and SKH urged those experiencing mild to moderate symptoms like cough, sore throat, or runny nose, to visit general practitioners (GPs) or Public Health Preparedness Clinics (PHPCs). Members of the public can find a PHPC at www.phpc.gov.sg. ST has contacted the Ministry of Health for more information.
