What Does SHC do?
At Singapore Hospice Council (SHC), we are committed to improving the lives of patients with serious life-limiting illnesses and to empowering the journey towards the end-of-life for our patients and their families or caregivers. Together with the 25 members, we want to be the collective voice of the palliative care community and raise awareness of palliative care in Singapore.
With the goal to help the community “Live well and leave well”, we provide easy access to resources on outstanding palliative care services in Singapore. Ensuring vital information regarding associated inpatient hospices are readily available at all times.
At Singapore Hospice Council, we understand the emotional and physical challenges that accompany these circumstances, and we strive to offer comfort, care, and support. Additionally, we recognise the invaluable role of patients’ loved ones, and we extend our assistance to help them navigate the complexities and emotions during this difficult journey.
