🫀 Ever feel unusually tired, lightheaded, or out of breath doing things that used to be second nature? Your heart could be working harder than it should.

Your heart valves are like well-oiled gates, opening and closing thousands of times a day to keep blood flowing. But when it starts to stiffen, aortic valve stenosis can make your heart push harder just to keep up.

If this rings true for you, it's time to listen to your body. Our heart specialists at Mount Elizabeth Hospital offer minimally invasive treatments like TAVI to help regain your heart’s healthy beat and your quality of life.

Mount Elizabeth Hospital (Orchard) celebrated Nurses' Day on 8 August 2025 with tribute performances from the senior management, nursing leaders and operations team, and a series of fun activities, award presentations and booths by sponsors.

Our nurses have shown great resilience and teamwork throughout Project Renaissance. They welcomed the re-opening of all the wards as well-deserved Nurses' Day gifts after two years! The senior leaders visited the nurses in their new wards in the morning to show our appreciation together with the doctors who were doing ward rounds.

As travellers return from affected countries, Singapore continues to face a risk of imported chikungunya cases. Local Aedes mosquitoes — the same species that spread dengue and Zika — can transmit the virus if they bite an infected person.

This virus causes sudden high fever and severe joint pain, sometimes lasting for months.

If symptoms appear, 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗹𝘆 at our 24-hour Urgent Care Centre. Quick diagnosis helps recovery — and helps infected individuals take precautions from being bitten again by uninfected mosquitos — thus preventing the virus from spreading further.
