Ng Teng Fong General Hospital (NTFGH)

Ng Teng Fong General Hospital

Ng Teng Fong General Hospital (NTFGH) is a pioneering healthcare facility in Singapore that sets a new standard for integrated care and patient-centered services. As the first hospital in the country to be designed and built alongside Jurong Community Hospital (JCH) as an integrated healthcare development, NTFGH is dedicated to transforming the way healthcare is provided to the community.
With a focus on delivering seamless and comprehensive care, NTFGH and JCH complement each other, ensuring that patients receive the highest level of care, enhanced efficiency, and convenience. The hospitals are managed by a single healthcare team, enabling the coordination of care and processes for patients and their caregivers.
One of the standout features of NTFGH is its innovative ward design. Every patient enjoys the luxury of a window, providing improved ventilation, abundant natural light, and better infection control. Patients can choose to sleep facing the window, enhancing privacy while maintaining a connection to nature.
Creating a healing environment is a priority at NTFGH. Greenery is strategically incorporated throughout the hospitals, offering soothing views and promoting a conducive atmosphere for recovery. Additionally, the hospitals have taken great care to optimize natural light, reducing glare and enhancing the well-being of patients.
NTFGH’s Specialist Outpatient Clinics streamline the patient journey, offering a one-queue, one-bill approach that minimizes the number of hospital visits. Patient Service Coordinators are readily available to assist with general health queries, appointment coordination, and test reminders. Furthermore, the hospitals feature pharmacies conveniently located on nearly every clinic floor, ensuring easy access to medication.
In terms of critical care, NTFGH’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU) sets itself apart by combining it with a High Dependency (HD) Unit. This unique arrangement allows for continuous care by the same team and reduces the risk of medical errors. Patients in stable condition have the opportunity to access outdoor areas with natural light, greenery, and essential medical equipment.
Located in bustling Jurong East, NTFGH is well-connected to the community through sheltered link bridges that provide easy access to transportation, business, retail, dining, and entertainment facilities. The hospital’s commitment to environmental sustainability is evident in its carbon-neutral infrastructure, water and energy systems, and landscape features. Energy-saving and water-saving measures have been implemented, contributing to a greener and more sustainable healthcare environment.
NTFGH stands at the forefront of healthcare innovation, exemplifying the vision and mission of providing integrated, patient-centered care. With its groundbreaking design, state-of-the-art facilities, and commitment to sustainability, NTFGH is a beacon of excellence in Singapore’s healthcare landscape.
