Shared Care Program
The Paediatric Shared Care (PSC) program aims
to provide comprehensive and coordinated quality care to children
with chronic diseases Through co-management of children under
our care at the NUH The Children's Medical Institute with
the primary care doctor/family physician. The children
on the PSC program are each issued a health booklet containing
details of the illness, treatment and follow-up plans. |
 |
The PSC program operates on three guiding principles:
-
Children under our care are entrusted to your
continuing care. Coordination of their management is maintained
throughout telecommunications as well as the follow-up notes
contained in the health booklets.
-
Subsequent admissions for acute and specialist
care at The Children's Medical Institute are facilitated by
the specialists.
-
Upon discharge, these children will be referred
back to the primary care doctor for follow-up.
The PSC also provides postgraduate training for
the participating doctors in the form of
Symposia and the publication of a Bulletin.
