Commemorating 50 Years of Child Mental Health Services

In 2020, IMH marked the 50th anniversary of its Child Guidance Clinic, which began in 1970 to better understand, manage and prevent mental health issues in Singapore’s youth. We celebrated this milestone with two unique projects that showcase the people and policies driving the development of child mental health services in Singapore.

Mandatory SafeEntry Check-in for Contact Tracing

Please click on or scan the QR code to check in using SafeEntry when entering IMH premises. As part of enhanced infection control and safe distancing measures, it is mandatory for all visitors entering our hospital premises to use SafeEntry. SafeEntry is a national digital check-in system that logs the information of individuals entering and exiting IMH. The submitted information will only be used for the purpose of contact tracing.

Latest infection prevention & control measures

As part of heightened infection control procedures, it is compulsory for all visitors entering our hospital premises to go through screening and SafeEntry check-in. We have also adopted a stringent visitor policy to protect our vulnerable patients. We will monitor the evolving COVID-19 situation in Phase 3 of Singapore’s reopening and make adjustments to our visitor policy as appropriate.

Temporary Museum Closure

We would love to host you but we are temporarily closed till further notice. This is in line with our government’s efforts to minimise further spread of COVID-19. We will open our doors again when the situation improves. In the meantime, stay healthy and safe. See you soon!
