“There is no health without mental health” - World Health Organisation
As Singapore’s tertiary mental health Institute, it is both our honour and privilege to be given this opportunity to make a difference in the lives of our patients and their families.
We are committed to the recovery of our patients and view them as partners in treating their mental health problems. We want to help by listening carefully, understanding their life stories and considering all aspects of their lives before recommending a choice of treatment options.
Our dedicated team of psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, occupational therapists, counsellors, and medical social workers are highly trained and have received national and international awards for their professionalism and clinical expertise. We work together as a team to bring our combined expertise to help our patients recover and lead productive lives.
Our services are available at our modern 2,000-bed hospital or in the community, through our community-based programmes. Our aim is to promote mental health, and ensure that mental health problems are discovered early and treatment offered in a timely manner.
If you are looking for mental health services for yourself or a loved one, the IMH team is here to support you.
