Singapore has introduced a free on-the-go mobile application to help people locate eldercare services at the first ever Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS) Health Carnival. The GPS-enabled app called “Mobile Eldercare Locator” (MEL), allows users to search for clinics, learn more information about eldercare and search for health and social care services, based on the location and type of service required by the elderly. The app and festival are also meant to raise awareness of CHAS. The CHAS benefits people aged 40 and above who live in a household with a monthly income of no more than $1,500 per head. Some 220,000 people already receive subsidised care at private general practices and dental clinics under the scheme. Singapore Silver Pages (SSP) is a specialised one-stop resource entity for Integrated Care that aims to address the information needs of the ageing population in Singapore by providing a single source where the elderly, their family members and caregivers can access trusted and authoritative information on eldercare. There are more than 1,000 such organisations featured in the app, which was developed by the Agency for Integrated Care. In addition to this, the app also features a GPS-enabled journey planner that instructs users how to get to the location of the service provider either by private car, taxi, bus or MRT. Guest-of-honour and Health Minister Gan Kim Yong said there is a need to help people understand their own state of health better and support them in managing any conditions. The MEL app is available on iOS and Android platforms for download free of charge.
