After surviving the traffic accident, Ms Foong felt isolated even with the support of family and friends.
"Some of my friends would visit me, but there was always a feeling of distance, like they didn't fully know what I was going through.
"When I met other survivors in the trauma support group, I felt less alone, even though we don't suffer from the same kind of physical injuries," she said.
Ms Lim Suat Ting, senior coordinator at NUH's department of surgery, explained that many patients whose bodies have gone through physical trauma struggle with similar emotional battles of isolation after being discharged from the hospital.
"Recognising the absence of a national support group, we were motivated to create a community where survivors can connect, share and heal together.
"Our goal is to help them build friendships, regain confidence and rebuild their lives," she said.
