Official description

Source: MINISTRY OF HEALTH Data Last Updated: 04/02/2026 Update Frequency: Annual Footnotes: A residential health facility providing more than one residential care service will be categorised based on its highest level of medical capability (LMC), provided the highest LMC beds make up at least 25 per cent of total bed capacity. For example, a health facility providing both community hospital and chronic sick services will be categorised as a 'Community Hospital' if its number of community hospital beds is at least 25 per cent of its total bed capacity. 'Community Hospitals' includes multiple services i.e. community hospital (sub-acute and rehabilitation), chronic sick units and inpatient hospice. Refer to inpatient discharges, excluding normal deliveries and legalised abortions. Adapted from: https://tablebuilder.singstat.gov.sg/table/TS/M870321
