When an elderly man collapsed near Johor Bahru Customs, three off-duty Patient Care Associates who were returning home to JB after their morning shift at Parkway East Hospital sprang into action.

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.

Chikungunya is rarely fatal, but it does cause fever and severe joint pain. Read more at straitstimes.com. Read more at straitstimes.com.

We just wrapped up Parkway East Hospital’s inaugural Paediatric Medical Seminar, which saw 83 doctors and 53 nurses, as well as clinical partners and colleagues, come together to deepen our commitment to children's health in the country.

As we continue to grow our paediatric ecosystem with over 30 specialists across more than 10 subspecialties (with paediatric dentistry on the way!), we’re building a space where children feel safe, parents feel supported, and care always feels personal.

A heartfelt thank you to our speakers for sharing their expertise, and to everyone who joined us in moving paediatric care forward, together.
