The Community Health Academy (CHA) is a community educational outreach effort by SKH to train interested members of the public in a core set of medical knowledge and skills to achieve a realistic and effective sense of personal empowerment in health and medical-related matters.
The CHA is suitable for anyone who is keen to learn and gain basic knowledge of managing common health conditions. Classes will be conducted in English, on Saturday mornings at Sengkang General Hospital. Each session will be about 3 hours in duration. The speakers comprise various healthcare professionals in SKH, ranging from doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals to administrative and ancillary staff.
