There will be restrictions on licensees to prevent the use of certain types of names or terms.

The general principle is that a healthcare service should name themselves accurately so as not to mislead patients into thinking that they are providing services which they do not actually provide, or which require a higher competency and capability.

Licensees cannot use the term ‘Singapore’ or ‘National’ or its derivatives and abbreviations in the licensee’s name or logo unless approved by the Director.
