You can also seek assistance at the closest Social Service Offices near you here (https://www.msf.gov.sg/dfcs/sso/)
We will also appreciate your help to remind your loved one to maintain good personal hygiene:
- Take your loved one’s temperature twice daily
- Wash hands frequently with soap and water (e.g. before and after meals)
- Avoid touching their face
- Avoid sharing food and cutlery (e.g. when having a meal with family)
- Maintain safe distancing (e.g. when interacting with other household members)
Members should also see a doctor if you feel unwell and not doctor hop, so that the same doctor can follow up with you and make the appropriate assessment of your condition.
You can find a resource kit attached for you and your loved one. It includes the latest information and activities that can be done at home. It is available below.
We appreciate your understanding and assistance. Together, we can do our part and keep everyone safe.
