Celebrating our Social Workers 💙

This World Social Work Day, our Medical Social Work team took a well-deserved pause — coming together over a candle-making workshop to unwind, connect, and enjoy a moment of self-care. To top it off, they were each surprised with a gratitude box filled with heartfelt notes from colleagues across departments!

To our social workers, thank you for uplifting our patients’ lives with dedication, compassion, and resilience. Your work may not always be visible, but it is always deeply felt. 💌

When Parkinson’s took away Mr Yong’s strength and independence, daily life became a struggle for him and his wife.

Through St Luke’s iReX rehabilitation programme, he attended physiotherapy twice a week to regain strength, balance, and confidence in daily tasks.
Then came an even greater breakthrough—music therapy helped him rediscover joy and even sing again in church after many years.
His progress lifted not only his own spirit, but also eased his wife’s burden as caregiver.

💙 With your support, St Luke's Hospital - SLH l ’s can continue providing these life-changing therapies for more patients and families.

Music and moments of joy 🎶

We were delighted to welcome the Singapore National Youth Orchestra for a special performance — their first in a hospital setting!

Featuring 30 talented young musicians across a jazz ensemble, trombone quartet, brass group, string quintet and even a stunning 5-foot harp, the programme brought a rich tapestry of local and international favourites.

More than a performance, the music lifted spirits, stirred memories, and brought moments of comfort and connection — for our inpatients, Community Inclusive Choir participants and their caregivers, as well as staff.

For the musicians too, the experience was just as meaningful. Members of the Boom Brass ensemble shared how heartening it was to see patients smiling and clapping along, making the experience more special.

Through our ongoing partnership with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra , we are privileged to continue bringing the gift of music for the third year running.

A heartfelt thank you to the musicians and partners who made this possible 💛

A taste of festive joy ✨

Today, our patients enjoyed a special Hari Raya festive dinner — featuring dishes like Ikan Bakar in Masak Merah sauce and Sago Pudding with Gula Melaka!

From preparation to serving, the Food Service Committee ensured that all meals were nutritiously prepared across different diet textures, so every patient could enjoy the taste of celebration in the wards.

SLH wishes all our Muslim friends and your loved ones a Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. May this season of gratitude and renewal bring you good health, peace, and renewed strength. 🌙

Raising digital awareness among seniors 📱

We were glad to partner with volunteers from Project SilverCare (PSC) to conduct a Digital Learning Workshop for seniors at Ren Ci AAC (Care) @ Bukit Batok St 52!

From basic smartphone use to spotting scams and deepfakes, the session equipped seniors with practical skills to stay safe in an increasingly digital world. The workshop also included a hands-on 1-to-1 segment, where volunteers guided seniors and answered their questions.

A big thank you to the PSC volunteers and Ren Ci Hospital for making this meaningful session possible.

🤝 PSC is part of Western Silvercare — our initiative that brings together Active Ageing Centres and community partners to support preventive health and active ageing for seniors aged 60 and above in Bukit Batok.

Strengthening Rehabilitation Care through Collaboration 👍

St Luke’s Hospital is honoured and grateful to partner with the Wee Foundation to strengthen post-discharge rehabilitation, helping patients rebuild strength and regain independence beyond their hospital stay.

Supported by a $200,000 grant over two years, the initiative will enhance and expand SLH’s Integrated Rehabilitation and Exercise (iReX) and Gym Up programmes, enabling patients to continue structured rehabilitation after inpatient care and transition more confidently back into the community.

Thankful to reconnect with the Wee Foundation team at a recent grantee partner event hosted by The Majurity Trust! Together, we continue advancing community-centred care, improving patient outcomes, and supporting long-term well-being beyond hospital walls.
