Health for Generations

When Mr Tan Tock Seng founded Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) in 1844, it was the first hospital started by and for the people of Singapore. The "Health for Generations" campaign commemorates TTSH's 180th anniversary and honors Mr Tan Tock Seng's legacy.

For nearly two centuries, the hospital has cared for generations of families in Singapore, expanding its capabilities and capacities along the way. Our shared commitment to healthcare excellence propels us forward. We are not just guardians of health; we are architects of a resilient future, dedicated to anchoring care in the present and future, providing health for all, and Health for Generations. 

The campaign successfully raised over $250,000 in support of our Charity's programmes.

Interim Dialysis for Needy Patients​​​​​​​​​

Struggling with chronic or end-stage kidney failure, Tan Tock Seng Hospital's (TTSH) needy patients can ill afford the out-of-pocket costs of private dialysis treatment while waiting for place​ments at subsidised dialysis centres, before their discharge. The prolonged wait for vacancies or the processing of their applications can stretch out for several months, exacerbating their already challenging situation.​

​​Strive to Thrive

Nursing knowledge through years of ground experience in managing and delivering care to patients and the community, especially in times of crises, provide rich and precious teaching material.

TTSH Nursing has come together to produce a novel resource 'textbook', to share valuable knowledge and experiences with fellow nurses across the hospitals, and transformative lessons from the pandemic and the way forward.

A big thank you to all our supporters who have helped us to produce the book! Our nurses aim to help not just TTSH Nursing, but also the larger nursing community thrive as we move forward heart to heart to meet challenges in the future.

​JT.jpg​Pay it Forward with JT

Recently, I was at a food center and I was having my lunch. An old lady came to clean my table. She was frail. Her hands shook, holding the cloth that was to wipe my table. Despite all these, she wore a smile so bright - you know it is from the heart. She is probably in her mid 60s. I observed her. After my lunch, I ushered her over. She thought I needed her service to clean my table. As her shaking hands reached out for the table, my hands reached for hers. I pressed a $10 note into her palm.”

To JT, nothing is better than to direct his birthday​ gifts in the form of donations to the Helping Elderly Patients Programme (HELP). Donate via giving.sg to support JT’s campaign!
