The new SAF Cardiac Fitness Centre was launched in January 2015, offering national servicemen a one-stop medical facility for a faster, smoother, and more convenient health screening process. Housed within the National Heart Centre, the new SAF Cardiac Fitness Centre will have access to many state-of-the-art equipment and renowned cardiologists. This is one of the many improvements in medical procedures, facilities and resources that the SAF started implementing after a thorough review in 2011. The review was sparked off after a series of deaths among full-time national servicemen. In fact, about 800 to 1,000 enlistees and servicemen are referred for specialised tests every month. With this new cardiac fitness centre, the waiting time for these advanced tests will be halved to 3 months.
