A national strategy that better carves out the roles that allied health professionals (AHPs) can play in Singapore's evolving healthcare system is being developed, with more details expected in 2025.
Second Minister for Health Masagos Zulkifli, who is also Minister for Social and Family Development, announced this at an international conference for AHPs on Nov 1.
Mr Masagos said that as the healthcare landscape evolves, Singapore needs a clear strategy, strong leadership and a spirit of innovation to drive the allied health profession forward.
AHPs, who include occupational therapists, podiatrists and radiographers, play a crucial role alongside doctors and nurses in providing holistic care to patients.
These professionals are being engaged in the development of the national strategy to help them "play their role in our healthcare system with a common understanding of the focus areas and transformation needed to meet national initiatives such as Healthier SG and Age Well SG", said Mr Masagos.
