The 1,800-bed Woodlands Health Campus (WHC) in Singapore will depend on smart technology to address a shrinking workforce, according to an article on the Strait Times website.
The facility will rely on telehealth to allow people to access hospital services — such as registration, ordering medication, and payment — from their own homes.
Robots will be deployed to automate back-end logistics such as housekeeping, freeing up staff to attend to patients’ needs.
The campus, which is expecting to take in its first patient in 2022, will have both acute and community hospitals, a nursing home and specialist clinics.
