Recognise this spot? 👀

This mural brings a touch of nostalgia to our campus, inspired by a photo of the old Woodlands Town Centre by heritage blogger Jerome Lim from 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘞𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘙𝘰𝘢𝘥.

In this space, you’ll also find elements from the former town centre, including mosaic stools and balusters, preserved as part of the hospital’s efforts to create a more comforting environment.

Next time you’re here, take a closer look — a small reminder of the charm and memories of old Woodlands.

On 1 April, we marked a milestone at our Surgical Skills Lab with the establishment of long‑distance tele‑robotic capability using the Sentire demo unit, in partnership with Cornerstone.

This add-on capability strengthens our surgeons’ training and proctorship by enabling collaboration and knowledge exchange with leading surgical experts around the world — through consoles that can be operated remotely. While robotic‑assisted surgery is not new, we continue to explore how emerging technologies can be meaningfully applied to enhance the way we care for our patients.

At the heart of it, our focus remains the same: to deliver care that is safe, effective and centred around our patients.

A few years before retiring, Chue Seng began thinking about how he might spend the next chapter of his life meaningfully.

Today, at 67, he volunteers at Woodlands Hospital as an ED Guardian in the Emergency Department, supporting patients and their families during stressful moments — guiding them to the triage nurse, offering reassurance, and providing a calm presence when it’s needed most.

More recently, he has also joined the Connectors programme, helping link patients to community resources and activities that support their wellbeing beyond the hospital.

For Chue Seng, volunteering has brought joy, structure to his days, and meaningful connections with people from all walks of life — a reminder that sometimes, the greatest support is simply being there for someone.

Our Story

Woodlands Health Campus (WHC) is a 1,800-bedded purpose-built Campus comprising a fully integrated acute and community hospital, specialist outpatient clinics, and intermediate and long-term care facilities. It is slated to open progressively from 2023.

WHC aims to reinvent the way care is delivered and provide seamless integration of care within and beyond hospital walls. To achieve this, WHC will be leveraging SMART technology to enhance care within the hospital, and extend the reach of WHC healthcare professionals into the community to partner and empower residents in their health journey. Work has already begun at WHC pre-operations wards to test innovation and user-friendly solutions for inpatient care, emergency medicine, pharmacy, logistics and the community.

WHC has also started serving the community through health talks, fitness sessions, health coaching and community nursing posts. In September 2020, WHC introduced the GPFirst Programme in the North and opened the community-based Urgent Care Centre at Kampung Admiralty, making urgent care more accessible to residents living nearby.
