NUHS Allied Health Learning Festival 2024
JurongHealth Campus Allied Health is proud to host the 2nd NUHS Allied Health Learning Festival, organised by NUHS Group Allied Health Council. The event took place on 5 March, from 2pm to 5pm, at our Auditorium. It is also marks the 1st year collaborating with the Centre of Allied Health Excellence since its launch in 2023. The learning festival aims to deep dive and encourage the spirit of learning amongst Allied Health professionals, hence the theme “Igniting Passion, Inspiring Purpose”.
Our Allied Health professionals face constant challenges in an evolving landscape, highlighting the importance of equipping them with the right tools. Esteemed speakers were invited to share learnings from the past, Strategies for the present and reimagining possibilities for the future.
The committee for the Learning Festival 2024 was led by our Adj A/Prof Chee Thong Gan (Senior Director, Allied Health & Community Operations NTFGH & JCH) and supported by Group Allied Health Council Secretariat Lee Zhao Qin (Sr Physiotherapist, NTFGH). The committee worked tirelessly from conceptualising, logistical planning and publicity, to the execution of event within a short span of 3 months. Esteemed speakers such as Susan Niam, CAHO (MOH), delivered a keynote speech titled 'Let’s Rethink', setting the tone for exploring the possibilities of the changing future. Dr Tyrone, Chief Allied Health & Pharmacy NUH, reflected on the past journey and lessons for the Allied Health profession to adapt and move beyond. Lastly, Hee Hoon, Director of Allied Health & Community Ops (NTFGH), drew from her experience to demonstrate how Allied Health professionals can innovate and elevate themselves for the future.
