On very short notice, Community Care Facilities (CCF) were built and converted to accommodate Covid-19 cases whose health conditions didn’t necessitate staying at a hospital.
This not only helped to reduce the healthcare system’s load, but also kept the cases from mingling in the community.
And so, on Friday (7 Aug), Singapore General Hospital posted on Facebook a wrap-up to the operation at Halls 7-10 of Singapore Expo.
Here’s a behind-the-scenes glimpse of how efforts to run the CCFs over the past 3 months played out.
It operated 24/7, with various agencies taking shifts and handling both front-end work as well as behind the scenes.
Several agencies, hospitals, and private companies worked together to ensure the temporary residents were taken care of.
The list of agencies working at the facility is staggering.
They include:
And that’s not even the full list.
These are the essential workers who’ve kept the CCFs running while Singaporeans stayed at home through the ‘Circuit Breaker’ and Phase 1.
They’ve sacrificed much time and sweat, potentially exposing themselves to the virus.
Not forgetting the ones working behind the scenes to keep the facilities operational — we can’t thank everyone enough.
Now that the CCF has wrapped up work, hopefully the personnel involved are holding up mentally and physically.
Kudos to everyone for their hard work and selflessness!
