The Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) is the second largest hospital in Singapore after the Singapore General Hospital, but its accident and emergency department is the busiest in the country largely due to its geographically centralised location. Set up in 1844 by an entrepreneur and philanthropist, Tan Tock Seng, the hospital came into the international spotlight when it was designated as the sole treatment centre for the SARS epidemic which struck the country in 2003.
As a member of the National Healthcare Group, TTSH continues to provide high quality holistic healthcare services to the people of Singapore. After three major moves in its long and distinguished history, the hospital now provides nearly all its services in one modern complex, comprising the Hospital Block, the TTSH Medical Centre and the Podium Block. The hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and medical equipment, as well as the latest communication and information technology tools, including a very sophisticated IBMS provided by CNA.
The IBMS at TTSH is responsible for maintaining the environmental integrity for critical clinical services including general surgery, ophthalmology, cardiology and infectious diseases.
The IBMS provides integration to a wide spectrum of services including Medical Systems, HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing and Sanitation, Utility Metering and Recording System, Telecommunication System, Lift Control System, Security Access Control System and Fire Management System. The total number of points monitored and control exceeds 50,000 points.
CNA's integrated solution at TTSH has created an efficient, safe and comfortable environment. CNA's comprehensive energy solution has helped TTSH win the BCA Platinum Green Mark Award and 1st Position in the Asean Energy Efficiency Award in 2006.
