Changi General Hospital was built to serve the healthcare needs of the community living east of the Kallang Basin. It was an amalgamation of the Toa Payoh Hospital and the Changi Hospital. Although it was officially opened on 28 March 1998, it already has a rich heritage and culture derived from its predecessor, Toa Payoh Hospital.
The history of Changi General Hospital is therefore the story of Toa Payoh Hospital.
The hospital began humbly in 1959 as Thomson Road Hospital. It opened its doors with a single ward, situated on the top of a hill in a swampy and sparsely populated area. It was designated as a hospital for the chronic sick and for the people in surrounding communities.
From the perseverance and determination of its doctors, administrators, nurses and staff, this "swateng" hospital has now become an 801-bed general hospital. Never lamenting what we did not have, we treasured what we did have, and built on it. Through this spirit of determination to overcome the odds, the Hospital grew to become a general hospital with various clinical specialties. Everyone strived to provide quality care and service to all patients who turned to the hospital for help.
