Emergency
Care
If you call 995 you are picked up by the Emergency Ambulance
Service (EAS) of the Singapore Defense Force which is manned by
qualified paramedics trained to stabilize patients and take them to
the nearest designated hospital. The SCDF does not charge for any
emergency case it conveys to hospitals.
the official average response time of an Ambulance Service is 30
minutes. Fast Response Paramedics - paramedics on bikes - are 4 to
5 minutes faster than ambulances.
In a non-emergency, dial 1777 for a non-SCDF ambulance or
contact your family doctor. The SCDF charges $165 for each
non-emergency case that it ferries to a hospital.
The patient will not be sent to a hospital of their choice!
Instead they are sent to the Tan Tock Seng Hospital - and if this
overcrowded - to the nearest designated hospital with accident and
emergency facilities listed below.
However, you may be transferred to the hospital of your choice
at a later time. Official response time is eight minutes with some
individuals reporting a response time of 15 - 20 minutes. Your
emergency call is handled through a computer systemm (Cubicon) that
chooses the ambulance closest to your location.
Therefore it is very important to listen to the adress repeated
by the fire station disptacher to avoid misunderstandings and
delays. You also have to give information on the nature of the
emergency.
Charges are $60 one way during office hours and $80 after office
hours to a government hospital. The charge for ferrying of
non-emergency cases will be $120.
