Ward visitors

• In line with MOH’s latest COVID-19 safety measures for hospitals to safeguard the vulnerable patient population, a vaccination-differentiated safe management measures (VDS) visitation approach for hospital wards has been implemented from 22 November 2021. Patients who are unvaccinated or partially vaccinated will not be allowed visitors, and visitors who are unvaccinated or partially vaccinated will not be allowed visitation (unless under exceptional conditions e.g. patient is critically ill, or requires additional care support, or requires to participate in caregiver training and if no alternative fully vaccinated caregiver is available)
• Visitation is not allowed at Restricted Wards
  
• Up to 2 pre-registered visitor (including caregivers) may visit for the entire admission period
• Each patient may receive up to 2 visits (limited to 30 minutes per visit) per day, with a maximum of 1 pre-registered visitor or caregiver at the bedside at any one time during visiting hours
• Caregivers or visitors are not allowed to eat or drink, sit on patients' beds and use patients' toilets in the wards
  
• All visitors, regardless of vaccination status, will need to be ART tested within 24 hours before visiting. All tests are to be self-funded by the visitor. Visitors who are fully vaccinated or medically ineligible for vaccination may show photo proof of their unsupervised self-swab ART result, preferably taken with their NRIC and be dated and time-stamped. Visitors who are unvaccinated or partially vaccinated (if allowed to visit) will be required to do their ART at MOH-approved COVID-19 test providers (check http://go.gov.sg/swabproviders). The following groups of visitors will be exempted from pre-visit testing:
  (i) visitors who have recovered from COVID-19 within the last 270 days, regardless of their vaccination status, and are able to produce a Pre-Event Test (PET) exemption notice; and
  (ii) visitors who have recovered from COVID-19 more than 270 days ago, and are fully vaccinated

• register on-site at the hospital
