Admission to Ren Ci Community Hospital is via referral from acute hospitals. The process is as follows:

Step 1The acute hospital will raise a referral for the patient, which our admissions team will assess.
Step 2Our admissions team will call up the acute hospital and arrange for the transfer. Next-of-kin of the patient will then be contacted regarding the necessary paperwork.
Step 3Patient will be transferred to our hospital and brought to the ward.

Upon being transferred to the ward, our friendly ward staff will orientate the patient and accompanying next-of-kin. Patients will be introduced to the care team, be shown the physical facilities and learn about ward policies and safety precautions. At Ren Ci Community Hospital, all meals are designed under the supervision of a dietician to ensure well-balanced nutrition, variety and taste. The meals are halal-certified and have vegetarian options. Meals can also be modified to suit the patient’s medical condition e.g. therapeutic diets for patients that require low sodium, low purine, pureed meals, calorie control, etc.
