The event is arranged in collaboration with Innovation Norway, Business Sweden and Business Finland.
This activity rides on Singapore Ministry of Health's funding to support the hospitals and specialty centres to improve nursing productivity. The role of nurses has been significantly amplified due to COVID-19. In the 2 years of fighting COVID-19, nurses have made tremendous sacrifices, at a heavy personal cost: pulling long shifts, day after day, week after week, since the start of the pandemic; returning to work on rest days to cover for colleagues who caught the virus; putting up with all the safety measures at the hospitals; risking exposure as they cared for infected patients. With or without COVID-19 pandemic, Singapore is facing a critical shortage of nurses that threatens the ability of the health care system to function.
More information: On 26th Oct 2021, Innovation Norway, Business Finland & Business Sweden launched the Nordic Health Study on MedTech opportunities in Asia Pacific Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam & India. See the webinar recording.
