Early treatment of chronic wounds can make the difference between losing or saving a limb. For better care for patients, Changi General Hospital's Wound Healing Centre (WHC) provides multidisciplinary early intervention and outpatient treatment of chronic wounds. Read about the team at WHC which comprises wound specialists with background in orthopaedics, vascular, plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery, as well as wound care nurses, in the latest issue of Singapore Health.

Also in the issue, read about how Singapore General Hospital's enhanced Medicine Ordering Service gives patients and their carers greater convenience; combining an immunotherapy drug with radiation therapy brings hope to advanced liver cancer patients who have few treatment options; and how standardising food terms like minced makes it safer for patients.

Also read about a new health appointment system developed by Open Government Products which will allow users to book an appointment for vaccination more easily at GP clinics; how clinical trials work, and more!
