Grab to launch GrabCare transport service for healthcare workers

The service will start running on 14 February to hospitals NCID and TTSH.

Grab has announced that it will be launching a new round-the-clock service, GrabCare, according to a press release. The service will enable healthcare professionals to seamlessly travel to and from hospitals.

As part of a phased rollout, the new pilot service will start running on 14 February for healthcare professionals coming from the National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID) and Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH). Healthcare workers will be able to book a ride back home via the GrabCare icon within the Grab app.

Grab said that the service will subsequently be expanded to include rides from homes to hospitals, and will be extended to more participating hospitals.

The rollout of the new Grab service aims to ease increased difficulties of healthcare professionals in getting rides due to heightened public awareness of the COVID-19.

The service will be served by volunteer driver-partners.

In line with the COVID-19 spread, Grab has also temporarily suspended its GrabShare service to minimise instances of contact.
