Our Nurses and Consultants Play their Part
Our annual Nurses Day Celebration is another
opportunity for nursing professionals from
the Group’s hospitals to play a part in caring
for life and to build stronger rapport with
the community. This event sees our nurses
spending their day outside our hospitals
by carrying out community activities at
orphanages, old folks’ homes and among the
underprivileged.
Our medical consultants too continue to play a
part in caring for life through the Consultants
Charity Fund. On top of this, a number of
them are championing various humanitarian
causes and supporting fund raising activities
for the needy. KPJ’s medical consultants also
support the Group’s CR efforts by providing
free surgery to selected patients and offering
their assistance to the community in times of
calamity.
Going forward, we will continue to harness
the wealth of experience and expertise of our
medical consultants and nurses to reinforce
our standing in the community.

Committed to Saving New-borns
Our commitment to caring for the community
extends to saving unwanted new-born babies
by building baby hatches at KPJ hospitals.
Without these baby hatches, many new-born
babies may otherwise face a tragic fate.
In support of efforts to rescue unwanted
babies, 10 baby hatches had been built at
KPJ hospitals in various locations with the
support of the Ministry of Women, Family and
Community Development and the Ministry of
Health. By offering this facility, mothers will be
able to leave their unwanted new-born babies
anonymously, thereby saving these new-
borns’ lives.
