SKH and Abbott have renewed and expanded our partnership in advancing Muscle Health in Singapore through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), strengthening our shared commitment to help people take action early to maintain strength, mobility and independence as they age.
Why does muscle health matter? One in three Singaporeans aged 60 and above is affected by sarcopenia - the age-related loss of muscle mass, strength and function. Muscle loss can also begin silently from as early as 40, long before it affects daily life.
Over the last three years, our partnership has supported a comprehensive muscle health programme, from training about 300 healthcare professionals to bringing muscle health education and screening closer to the community.
At the signing, Daniel, a Community Health Champion, shared how his training has equipped him to recognise those who may be at risk of muscle loss and encourage them to take action early.
Muscle health is fundamental to healthy ageing. Regular assessment, good nutrition and resistance exercise can help us maintain strength and function - supporting how well we move, recover and live at every stage of life.
