SDSPC Paper No. 2/2021 Annex 1 Progress Report for the Southern District Signature Project – Eye Examination Scheme ( From 01/10/2020 to 31/12/2020 ) 1. Purpose This document aims to report on the progress of the Eye Examination Scheme during the period from October 2020 to December 2020. 2. Background In 2013, the Government introduced the Signature Project Scheme (“SPS”) through which $100 million has been earmarked for each District Council to undertake large-scale and sustainable project(s) that would address the needs of the district. The Southern District Council (SDC) decided to adopt the Eye Examination Scheme (“the Project”) as one of its two SPS projects and endorsed the proposal for engaging The University of Hong Kong (“HKU”) as the partner organisation for the Project in November 2017. On 1 June 2018, the Finance Committee of the Legislative Council approved the funding application of HK$49,700,000 for the purpose of implementing the Project. The Department of Ophthalmology of The University of Hong Kong has established an ophthalmic examination centre (“the Centre”) at Southern District Office (“SDO”)’s Wah Kwai Sub-office to provide free and comprehensive ophthalmic examination services for Southern District residents aged 50 or above. The Eye Examination Scheme was officially launched on 20 May 2019. 3. Service Summary As of 31 December 2020, a total of 4774 qualified Southern District residents have received ophthalmological examination under the scheme. The overall attendance rate was 88.67%. Out of the total, 1131, 531 and 543 participants were diagnosed with cataract (23.69%), glaucoma or suspected glaucoma (11.12%), and macular and retinal diseases (11.37%), respectively.

Human Resource Plan The following table shows the number of staff employed for the implementation of the Project: Position Number Major job duties Perform ophthalmological examination Ophthalmologist 2 Provide medical advice to participants during consultation Perform the role of team leader on site Perform vision testing and investigations Optometrist 2 Provide supervision and training for other supporting staff Handle medical related treatment issues (e.g. handling of medication, instruments, and/or blood taking) Enrolled Nurse* 1 Serve as the infection control officer for the project Conduct training and risk assessment Project Manager 1 Coordinate various logistics of the Project Provide assistance to Ophthalmologists during consultation Technical Assistant 3 Coordinate participants during the actual visit Record the data and assessment results gathered Provide clerical support Secretariat assistant 3 Coordinate participants during the actual visit Total 12 *Remark: We experienced difficulties in the employment of Registered Nurse due to very competitive offers in the market. Under this circumstance, an Enrolled Nurse was hired in Mar 2020 to fill the vacancy. After the recruitment of nurse and the streamlining of examination procedures, it is expected the service capacity will reach 28-30 per day. 4 5. Measurements in Response to the Risks of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) 5.1 Suspension of service Suspension Period: 29 Jan 2020 to 22 May 2020 On the 26 Jan 2020, with the increasing risk of a COVID-19 outbreak in the community, the HKSAR Government raised the response level under the "Preparedness and Response Plan for Novel Infectious Disease of Public Health Significance" (“the Preparedness and Response Plan”) to Emergency Response Level with immediate effect. In view of this and the general situation in Hong Kong at the time, the Centre was closed from the 25 Jan 2020. A total of 504 participants had registered during the suspension period. As the COVID-19 pandemic eased, service resumption was sought and approved by HKU Health System and the Southern District Council (SDC), and service resumed on 25 May 2020. Priority booking service was given to the affected participants during the suspension period. Among those, 493 appointments were re-scheduled and completed in Jun 2020, while 11 participants cancelled their booking. Online and phone booking service resumed on 10 Jul 2020. Suspension Period: 20 Jul 2020 to 28 Aug 2020 In light of the community outbreaks of COVID-19 in July reported by the HKSAR Government, HKU Health System, in consultation with SDC, decided to re-suspend the operations of the Centre from 20 July 2020. After the situation became relatively stable again in mid-August, service resumed on 31 August 2020. A total of 340 participants were affected during this period, and all of their appointments were rescheduled. Among them, 230 completed their eye check in Sep 2020. Online and phone booking service resumed on 9 Oct 2020. 5.2 Ongoing monitoring of the outbreak and plans for resumption of service With the unpredictable COVID-19 pandemic situation, the following criteria were adopted as indicator for service suspension: i. Special work arrangement announced by the HKSAR Government. ii. Confirmed COVID-19 cases visited the Centre in the past 14 days. iii. Service suspension for 3 days for cleaning of Centre when confirmed COVID-19 infection of staff. iv. If HKU Health System, HKU Department of Ophthalmology, and the SDC all agree that the COVID-19 community transmission risk is too high to continue service. 5 The following actions will be taken immediately to implement the service suspension: i. Immediately suspend online and phone booking for new appointments. ii. A notice of service suspension (in Chinese and English) to be placed at the Centre entrance on the same day. iii. Participants with existing bookings are promptly informed via telephone regarding the cancellation of their appointment. iv. Affected participants with cancelled bookings will be informed that they would be given choice of priority booking once service is resumed. Each of these participants would be offered one of two dates set in two different months for their rescheduled appointment. The participants would be informed that should they decline the offer, they would have to make a new booking without priority in the future. v. The hotline will be attended to as usual during regular office hours to address any questions from the public. HKU Health System will conduct bi-weekly review to decide whether to continue service suspension during the suspension period. The following criteria for resumption of service were adopted to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission among participants at the Centre: i. The HKSAR Government downgrade the response level under the Preparedness and Response Plan; or ii. No new COVID-19 cases with confirmed or suspected community transmission in Hong Kong for the last 14 days; or iii. If HKU Health System, HKU Department of Ophthalmology and the SDC all agree that the COVID-19 community transmission risk is low enough to safely resume service. 5.3 Risk Assessment and Infection Control Implementation Our aim is to continue the service when the risk of community transmission is acceptably low, and as an additional safeguard, a designated infection control coordinator will ensure all medical and technical staff of the Centre is well versed in the upgraded infection control measures.

  • CEC Paper No. 2/2020 Annex 3
    Annex 3 Matters on the SDC Notice Boards Reply from the Southern District Office The consolidated reply from the Southern District Office (SDO) is as follows: Current Position 2. Currently, there are 23 notice boards for the Southern District Council (SDC). Setting aside South Horizons East and South Horizons West where there are no notice boards, the number of notice boards in each constituency ranges from one to five. The distribution and design of the notice boards are given at Appendix. 3. The notice boards measure approximately 105 centimetres (cm) in width by 77 cm in height and can at most accommodate about four sheets of A3 paper. Currently, the notice boards are primarily used for displaying the list of SDC members with contact details, the meeting agenda of the Full Council and its committees, as well as publicity materials of district activities of SDO or the Leisure and Cultural Services Department put up by SDO based on the actual situation. The relevant work is arranged by SDO and the information displayed on the notice boards is standardised across all the boards. The repair and maintenance of notice boards is within the ambit of the District Minor Works projects under the items of “Safety inspection, cleansing and related repair to minor works facilities in the Southern District” and the “Minor improvement works”. SDO will clean the notice boards and update their content six times a year, i.e. about once every two months. As the SDC Secretariat does not have specific resources to carry out the routine work for the notice boards, the notice boards are currently used under the established principles of simplicity and consistency so as to meet the basic needs.
