Contact your preferred provider
Your preferred provider will advise you on the next steps.
To expedite the process, you may wish to prepare the following documents:
- A copy of your loved one’s NRIC
- A copy of your (the main caregiver’s) NRIC
- Latest medical records/ hospital discharge summary of your loved one, (if available). The medical records ideally should not be older than 1 year from your application to the service.
- Download this application form.
*Note: A doctor’s referral is not required for the application. However, please check with the day care centre you are applying to if they require other documents.
You should submit the application form and relevant documents to the preferred provider at least 8 working days before the date you wish to use the service. Preparing earlier will ensure that you have sufficient time to work out the necessary arrangements with your preferred centre.
You can submit the documents by email, or deliver the documents in person. If you need help in completing the application form, you may contact the centre for assistance.
Prepare for the pre-admission assessment
Upon receiving your application, the centre will contact you to arrange for a pre-admission assessment with both you and your loved one at the centre.
This session is to allow the centre to better understand the needs of you and your loved one. The centre will also share if there are other considerations and requirements before your loved one is enrolled into the service.
