In a text message sent out by MOH, they said:

“Due to rising Covid-19 cases, we urgently require manpower to support the ramp-up of Covid-19 operations.”

The SHC was first started up to provide support for healthcare professionals in operational needs relating to the pandemic as well as community care.

Individuals regardless of their level of experience in healthcare are welcomed by the SHC and those that are selected would be given training before they are deployed out in their roles.
