CD NSmen & NSF

Medical Treatment Service

During office hours, if a NSF is ill or injured, he should consult the SCDF Medical Officer (MO). The medical treatment at the Medical Centres will be fully subsidised.

If a NSF falls sick or is injured after office hours (while in the Training Camp), he will inform his officer-in-charge, who will refer him to the Medic on duty to get immediate medical attention.
