National Allied Health Strategy
Harnessing the collective value of the Allied Health Professionals’ diverse expertise for better patient outcomes
About the National Allied Health Strategy
Allied Health Professionals (AHPs) play a vital and growing role in Singapore's healthcare system, yet fragmented and siloed care delivery have limited their full potential. The National Allied Health Strategy (NAHS) was developed to strengthen capabilities, enhance integration, and enable more sustainable, patient-centred care.

Note:
Workforce development efforts under the NAHS across Phase 1 AHP professions may vary according to evolving workforce requirements and readiness.
Phase 1 is a starting point for workforce development under the NAHS. Professionals not classified as Phase 1 AHPs continue to be recognised and valued for their unique skills and contributions. They continue to be supported through their respective institutions, professional bodies and national development efforts, where applicable.
The NAHS does not serve as a framework for determining the need for professional registration.
