CCF Model of Care
CCF adopts the biopsychosocial-spiritual (BPSS) model of care for our beneficiaries. This holistic approach takes into account the unique biological, psychological, social and spiritual factors that impact each individual’s subjective experiences and clinical outcomes.
Our social workers conduct specialised assessments using the BPSS model for clients to tailor a suitable psychosocial treatment plan and achieve the best possible outcomes.
CCF Service Model
CCF offers a spectrum of critical services to our beneficiaries through our hospital-community service model. It is aligned to their continuum of needs throughout their childhood cancer journey.
Biopsychosocial-spiritual (BPSS) Model
In the Hospitals
From the point of their childhood cancer diagnosis, CCF helps children and their families cope with the hospital experiences that range from difficult treatment procedures and side-effects to long stays and repeated visits.
Our social workers and child life therapists are sited in KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH) and the National University Hospital (NUH) to work in partnership with the medical teams in the paediatric oncology wards.
Should a child be at the end stage of his/her life, CCF also provides palliative and bereavement support to improve the quality of life of the child and his/her impacted family.
In the Community
With more children surviving childhood cancer, CCF provides continual care to help survivors and their families reintegrate into the community and lead fulfilling lives.
This includes a range of services and resources that support emotional wellbeing, social connection, physical health, education, and employment-related needs.
CCF also serves children impacted by the cancer diagnosis of immediate family members.
