Screen for Life is a national health screening initiative by the Health Promotion Board (HPB) and the Ministry of Health (MOH). The programme aims to encourage regular health screenings and follow-ups to detect early signs of diseases like diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and colorectal cancer. Regular screenings can significantly reduce the risk of complications and promote a healthier lifestyle.
Screen For Life is not just about detecting illnesses – it's about preventing them. Our screenings are designed to catch potential health issues in their early stages, allowing for timely intervention and a proactive approach to your well-being.
