In 2019, SingHealth Community Hospitals (SCH) introduced Social Prescribing (SP) program to support patients in transitioning back to the community after hospitalization, which involves personalized care plans developed by Wellbeing Coordinators (WBCs) to connect patients with relevant community resources. With the recent launch of the nation-wide 'Healthier SG' initiative, a population health strategy in Singapore aimed at enabling individuals to prevent and manage chronic diseases, it is important to provide an update on our program's recent developments. This includes creating a living asset map, updating outcome assessment tools, organizing training sessions to enhance the skills SP practitioners, and establishing the Singapore Community of Practice in Social Prescribing (SCOMP).
2019年,新加坡健康集团社区医院(SCH)推出了社会处方(SP)项目,以支持患者在住院后过渡回社区,该项目包括由健康协调员(WBC)制定的个性化护理计划,以便将患者与相关社区资源联系起来。随着最近全国性的“更健康的新加坡”倡议的启动,这是新加坡一项旨在使个人能够预防和管理慢性病的人口健康战略,更新我们项目的近期进展情况非常重要。这包括创建一个动态资产地图、更新结果评估工具、组织培训课程以提高社会处方从业者的技能,以及建立新加坡社会处方实践社区(SCOMP)。
