SINGAPORE — The Ministry of Health (MOH) will be planning an enhanced payment package for nurses for 2022 and 2023 as part of efforts to build up Singapore's healthcare workforce, said Health Minister Ong Ye Kung on Friday (July 29).

“As the pandemic is still ongoing with a major burden falling on our nurses, I think they are deserving of another payment, perhaps structured as a nurses’ retention payment,” said Mr Ong during a speech at the 2022 Healthcare Scholarships award ceremony.

The Health Minister noted that nurses are in “great demand” across all healthcare settings and in many countries.
