this is the reply from SGH on 14dec

Hello friends
Thank you for your interest in carolling @ SGH. Indeed we are very heartened to see so many responses from the various churches, schools wanting to bring cheer to our patients.

As we are a hospital, we have some basic guidelines for all carollers to adhere to. Please disseminate the information to all carollers before the event and adhere to it.

If you are keen to bring some presents for the patients, please limit it to items such as toiletries, biscuits (useful items)..no home cooked food pls. The average number of patients usually number around 80 - 150. Do let me know if you plan to bring presents so that I could advise you on the numbers required. However, please do not feel compelled too!

As a gesture of thanks, we will also provide drinks for all carollers which will be placed at the Nurse Managers room. Please help yourself to the mineral water/packet drinks before or after the event. Appreciate if you could indicate the number of carollers coming for the event to facilitate arrangement for the refreshments.

On the date of the event, please come at least 15 mins earlier to leave your bags in the Nurse Managers room and fill up the logsheet before starting the programme proper. Please look for the staff indicated in the attached table. If they are not around, please ask the nearest Staff Nurse or Senior Staff Nurse for assistance.

I wld certainly appreciate if you do take pictures of your performances at SGH and email it to me. I'll try to feature the pictures in my newsletter coming up in 2007 and promise to email you the final version.

This is the final carolling schedule for your information/attention.

Thank you and wishing you a blessed year ahead.
Cheers
Mumtaj
