hi hi! I just gave birth 2 weeks ago at NUH. Husband needs to take an ART test before coming up to the delivery suite. If your husband is fully vaccinated, they will provide him with the test kit and he will do it himself. of he is unvaccinated, he will have to purchase his own kit. As for yourself, once you're in the delivery suite, someone will come in to do a swab test on you. There's no need for you to take your own swab test before heading to hospital. Hope this helps! ☺️
