4 I ABOUT THIS HANDBOOK 1. This handbook has been developed as a guide and resource to all NHG-AHPL residents. It outlines what a resident needs to know about graduate medical education in NHG-AHPL and in particular, policies and procedures as established by the NHG Committee (GMEC). 2. These policies and procedures pertain to training matters under all NHG-AHPL residency programs. They are not intended to replace non-training related policies and procedures of individual participating sites, clinical departments and MOH Holdings Pte Ltd (MOHH). If areas of conflict develop, such conflicts are to be evaluated by the GMEC for a resolution. 3. This handbook will be amended and updated as necessary with the latest version posted on the NHG Residency website ( When additions, changes or revisions are made to this handbook, notice will be sent to Program Directors (PD), Program Coordinators (PC), Core Faculty and residents.

12 becomes ineligible for appointment or continuation of appointment in NHG-AHPL residency programs. b. A pre-admission health review and current immunization record are required prior to commencement of graduate medical education in keeping with NHG HR staff policy. c. Non-Singaporean or a non-singapore permanent resident must be eligible to be issued with a Work Pass by the Ministry of Manpower to be employed. Application 4. Application for residency programs in Singapore is coordinated by the MOHH. 5. Calls for applicants to apply for residency programs will be announced on the MOHH s Physician website ( and all SIs sites every year. 6. Applicants are encouraged to apply early to the programs that interest them and travel for interviews (for overseas graduates) if invited. New graduates who are unsuccessful with their applications with Residency will have to apply for their preferred postings in the national House Officer Posting Exercise/ Medical Officer Posting Exercise (HOPEX/MOPEX), also administered by MOHH. 7. Applicants must submit a completed application with supporting documents as prescribed by MOHH. Selection 8. NHG-AHPL Residency follows the selection process defined by MOH and MOHH. 9. A two tier system is used to determine the eligibility of applicants: a. a specialty-specific National Selection Panel comprising the PD from each SI or their representatives and a representative from the Residency Advisory Committee (RAC) of the specialty determines the eligibility of applicants. This panel determines the eligibility of an applicant to enter training in the specified specialty and to provide a national ranking of all applicants for the same specialty. b. the NHG-AHPL Residency Program Selection Panel comprising the PD, Associate Program Director (APD), Core Faculty/Designated Faculty will also internally rank the applicants and participate in the national matching exercise, administered by MOHH. 10. NHG-AHPL Residency then takes part in the national matching exercise administered by MOHH. 11. The rules of the matching exercise are devised to be impartial to both hospitals/healthcare institutions and the applicants. Applicants rank the residency programs that they are interested in, and the SIs rank the candidates of their choice separately. Candidates and SIs are blind to each other s ranking. 12. Candidates are then offered based on their preference within the training capacity of the SI during the matching exercise. NHG-AHPL RESIDENCY HANDBOOK 16 APR of 30

If the report is valid, the APD/PD will notify the NHG GMEC. During this time, the APD/PD may decide to temporarily suspend the resident from training and clinical work if there are any potential patient safety issues. 9. The APD/PD will offer assistance in obtaining the necessary medical, psychological and social assistance for the resident and monitor the resident s progress in treatment. 10. An ad-hoc meeting of NHG GMEC will review the report and decide on the severity of the impairment. This meeting should consist of at least 4 APDs/PDs and the DIO or Acting DIO. 11. Where there are concerns regarding severe impairments leading to patient safety concerns, the NHG GMEC will raise the matter to the CMB of the respective hospitals. 12.
