The Excellence in Public Service Awards recognises public officers and agencies for service and organisational excellence.

The Healthcare Humanity Awards (HHA) are given out to healthcare workers who are inspirational models. They exemplify the values of courage, dedication, selflessness, and steadfastness in ethics, compassion and humanity. These values underscore healthcare as a noble profession, and not merely a job.

The HHA is a continuing legacy of the Courage Awards, which were first given out in 2003 to healthcare heroes for their courageous fight against Sars. 

Healthcare Humanity Awards 2019

Assistant Nurse Clinician Maznah Marmin was one of the ten award recipients to receive the Honourable Mention at the Healthcare Humanity Award 2019 and is the first in JurongHealth Campus to receive this Honourable Mention. Apart from her role as a specialty care nurse at NTFGH Neurology, ANC Maznah is an active volunteer who has assisted villagers in Kelantan contain the spread of malaria. In March 2018, ANC Maznah travelled to Bangladesh to provide medical relief to Rohingya refugees as part of the Muslim Healthcare Professionals Association. She does us proud and we continue to be inspired by her acts of service to humanity.

Healthcare Humanity Awards 2018

Nurse Clinician Guat Hoon is one of our pioneer staff who has been with us since our early days. Donning hard hat and safety boots, she was heavily involved in setting up and commissioning our Emergency Department at NTFGH to ensure that the area was operationally ready and safe for receiving patients. Aside from her nursing duties, she was also tasked to lead the Decontamination Unit, which involved drafting policies, workflow processes, and creating a training curriculum to equip over 300 hospital staff with the skills to manage the decontamination process in response to a civil emergency. With over 20 years of experience in the ED, she describes her career in three words – challenging, interesting, and fulfilling! Even outside of work, she is steadfast in her belief to save lives and puts her nursing skills to good use by volunteering as a first aider at medical mission trips and marathon events.

Healthcare Humanity Awards 2017

Advanced Practice Nurse Clarice Wee has been looking after critically ill patients since she started her nursing career in 2007. She ensures that her patients receive the care that they need in their vulnerable moments and offers comfort to their families. Her parents were initially apprehensive about her career choice, worried that nursing was a tough job and that she’d be cleaning patients up most of the time. But 10 years on, APN Clarice is still in the ICU and she has never looked back. We are proud of Clarice for leading by example!

Healthcare Humanity Awards 2016

Our Senior Enrolled Nurse, June Ng, was one of the 101 healthcare heroes honoured at the HHA 2016. With over three decades of nursing experience, SEN June has seen the spectrum of human emotions – hope, suffering, triumph and loss. Despite the demands of her day-to-day duties, she took on responsibilities beyond her nursing scope of work to help set up and commission the new Endoscopy Centre at ‪NTFGH‬. Beyond the hospital, SEN June regularly participates in JurongHealth's community outreach activities and goes on voluntary mission trips every year. Her resilience and dedication to provide quality care to her patients those in need are indeed inspiring.

Healthcare Humanity Awards 2015

The HHA 2015 honoured 62 recipients, one of which was our Principal Enrolled Nurse, Jasmine Goh, who has served as a nurse for more than 30 years. Ms Goh is held in high regard by her colleagues and patients. She takes great pride in her work, often going the extra mile for those who require her assistance. On more than one occasion, Ms Goh has devoted her personal time to help patients in need change their wound dressings on a daily basis. The patients' families were very grateful to her and have continued to keep in touch with her. A nurse for over 30 years, Ms Goh uses her expertise to volunteer her services at community outreach programmes. In 2011, she received a long service award for her service to the community.

Healthcare Humanity Awards 2014

54 healthcare professionals were honoured at the HHA 2014, of which two were JurongHealth Campus nurses. Abdul Farouk, Nurse Clinician, and Noreen binte Taha, Senior Staff Nurse, are both active volunteers. They stepped up to be a part of the Singapore Red Cross Medical Relief Mission sent to aid Typhoon Haiyan victims in the Philippines in 2013.

Established in 1962, the annual National Day Awards recognises various types of merit and service to the nation. Singaporeans and non-Singaporeans alike are honoured for outstanding contributions to the civil or military service, social and community work or excellent performance in their own fields

Outstanding in their competence, leadership and innovation, these nurses are also dedicated in committed in nurturing young nurses and contributing their professional expertise to the community.

President's Award for Nurses 2017

A nurse of 40 years, Mdm Kuttiammal worked through the ranks from an Assistant Nurse before taking on the role of Director, Nursing, when Jurong Health Services was set up in 2009. An extraordinary nurse leader, she made significant contributions to the growth of the organisation, including the mammoth task of building the new hospitals.

Under her leadership, our nursing team pushed for a patient-centred design and process, innovation, IT, training and enhanced career development. As a team, our nurses achieved many "firsts", such as the integrated Electronic Patient Information Board which eliminates the use of paper and provides up-to-date information at the patient’s bedside, the electronic medication cart and closed-loop system for medication administration which ensures patient safety, as well as the interactive learning application called “Virtual Nurse” which allows nurses to continually enhance their nursing knowledge.

The Public Sector Transformation Awards recognises individuals and teams from the public service for their excellence in service delivery, innovation and best practices.

Public Sector Transformation Awards 2020

Senior Staff Nurse Mary Jane, Ward C5, Jurong Community Hospital, is a very devoted and passionate nurse. Her propensity to render assistance to those in need outside of the hospital is a strong testament to her dedication.

Mary Jane always lends a listening ear and forges friendships with her patients. She once helped a patient, who was despondent about her divorce while concurrently dealing with a terminal illness, to focus on the positive things in her life. Eventually, they became friends and even celebrated Christmas together.

Other than her strong ability to empathise with her patients, Mary Jane was also recognised by Ng Teng Fong General Hospital as the “Best Clinical Instructor/Preceptor” for nursing students. Congratulations to Senior Staff Nurse Mary Jane on receiving the Exemplary Service Excellence Award 2020! 

Public Sector Transformation Awards 2019

Always putting his patients first, Adjunct Assistant Professor Loke Wei Tim understands the anxiety when faced with a discouraging diagnosis and puts in effort to explain the options as well as provide the necessary information to help patients through difficult decisions. He makes the time to address their concerns and help patients to manage their fears and response to treatment. His sincerity and commitment has made a difference, and enabled him to build strong relationships with his patients based on trust and respect.

Congratulations to Adj Asst Prof Loke for winning the Exemplary Service Excellence Award at the Public Sector Transformation Awards 2019!

Public Sector Transformation Awards 2018

A pioneer nurse working in the General Surgery Clinic, Senior Enrolled Nurse Zubaidah Bte Osman's heart for others extends beyond caring for her patients in the hospital. In her personal capacity, SEN Zubaidah would visit her patients at their homes, to redress their wounds, especially for diabetic patients who lack family support and have serious wounds that requires more attention. She also empathised with their situation and gave her time to help willingly. 

Congratulations to our SEN Zubaidah on receiving the Star Service Individual Award at the Public Service Transformation Awards 2018!

The Tan Chin Tuan Nursing Award recognises promising Enrolled Nurses who have shown excellence and dedication in their profession. It also offers a chance for winners to undergo specialist training to further their skills and raise nursing care standards.

Named after the late banker and philanthropist, Tan Sri (Dr) Tan Chin Tuan, in memory of his kindness, dedication and generosity, the award recognises the very same qualities embodied by those in the nursing profession.

Tan Chin Tuan Nursing Award 2018

Our Principal Enrolled Nurse, Faridah Hassan, was the first nurse in JurongHealth Campus to be awarded first runner-up for the Tan Chin Tuan Nursing Award in 2018.

Tan Chin Tuan Nursing Award 2016

Our Senior Enrolled Nurse, Endoscopy, June Ng, was one of ten to receive the Tan Chin Tuan Nursing Award 2016 from Dr Amy Khor, Senior Minister of State for Health.
