Happenings
HCA Hospice CareIn times of crisis like COVID-19, we see Singaporeans collaborating to help one another and these collaborations can often develop into long-term partnerships.
In 2016, a successful collaboration between HCA and Odyssey Dance Theatre Ltd, Singapore (ODT) led to the development of our partnership. It created new opportunities and resources for both HCA and ODT.
While our partnership was developed pre-COVID-19, this solid foundation has allowed Dr Danny Tan, CEO of ODT, and Ms Angeline Wee, CEO of HCA, to relook and strengthen our partnership even further as we adapt to a new normal.

HCA Hospice CareAt first glance, words such as ‘liveliness’ and ‘vibrancy’ are synonymous with dance, but antonymous with hospice. If you look into the partnership between HCA and Odyssey Dance Theatre Ltd, Singapore, however, these words resonate with us.
Our CEO, Ms Angeline Wee, shares more about HCA’s partnership with Odyssey Dance Theatre and how dance can breathe life into a hospice and how a hospice can inspire the arts.

HCA Hospice CareIn the words of famous American choreographer, George Balanchine, first you see the music, then you hear the dance.
With the current safe distancing measures, we can only #throwback and look forward to the next opportunity to hold large-scale physical events and plan outings for our patients.
Today we #throwback to our inaugural dance presentation, “Colour the Wind, Let’s Go!” back in 2017, when we collaborated with Odyssey Dance Theatre Ltd, Singapore to showcase dance performances by youths to our Day Hospice patients.
The students may have seen it as a simple performance, but our patients saw it otherwise; from the colourful costumes and beautiful props to the vibrant dance movements, watching this art in motion was a delightful treat.
Besides the beautiful art form, the atmosphere and energy in performances like this, are what our patients miss most these days.
