Located within the heartland’s community sites (e.g. Active Ageing Centres, Community Centres, Residents’ Committees/Networks), our Community Health Posts (CHP) aim to increase accessibility to health and social care services, and empower residents to take charge of their health by connecting them to the relevant community tools, knowledge, resources, and support in the neighbourhood.

CONNACT Plus is a community-based programme designed to optimise rehabilitative outcomes for patients with knee osteoarthritis, with the goal of reducing and/or delay the need for unnecessary surgery. The programme is delivered collectively by a team of community rehabilitation partners and health coaches.

• Physiotherapy exercises focused on improving flexibility, strength and functional activities
• Psychoeducation sessions covering topics such as nutrition, pain acceptance and mindfulness
• Health coaching to set personalised health goals, develop action plan and monitor progress towards the desired goals

The programme is suitable for residents aged 45 years old and above who are experiencing knee osteoarthritis/pain and can move within the community, with or without walking aids. It excludes individuals with secondary arthritis, previous knee surgery on the affected knee or other conditions that may hinder full participation (e.g. cognitive impairment or pregnancy). Programme fees vary between $10 to $150, depending on means testing.
