E-Newsletter
E-Newsletter INAUGURATION ISSUE 2016 With the support of The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, a three-year initiative, Jockey Club End-of-Life Community Care (JCECC) Project, was launched in 2015. The project aims at improving the quality of end-of-life care, enhancing the capacity of service providers and raising public awareness. FEATURE On February 25, 2016, The JCECC Project, together with Hospital Authority and Hong Kong Society of Palliative Medicine, organised a Symposium on Collaboration and Communications in Health and Social Care for End-of-Life Care. The Symposium featured three knowledgeable speakers including Professor Ilora Finlay from University of Cardiff, Mr. Richard Yuen from Food and Health Bureau and Professor Cecilia Chan from the JCECC Project. In Hong Kong, the proportion of deaths of people aged 65 or over has increased from 67.2% (in 1991) to 78.4% (in 2011), amounting to a 73% increase in actual deaths. In the same period, the overall number of deaths also increased; therefore, the demand for end-of-life care has grown tremendously. Despite that, the development of end-of-life care in Hong Kong has been below average. In the 2015 Quality of Death Index, Hong Kong was ranked only 22nd out of 80 regions, behind other developed Asian regions like Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and South Korea. The United Kingdom ranked 1st in the index and there are a lot of experience that can be learnt from the UK on end-of-life care in terms of systems, infrastructures and community education. Professor Finlay, The Baroness Finlay of Llandaff and Professor of Palliative Medicine in Cardiff University, with Mr. -

27 June 2011 Doctor the Honourable KL Leung Chairman, Panel On
LC Paper No. CB(2)2239/10-11(06) 27 June 2011 Doctor the Honourable KL Leung Chairman, Panel on Health Services Legislative Council Secretariat Legislative Council Building 8 Jackson Road, Central Hong Kong Dear Dr Leung, Re: Implementation of Hospital Accreditation in Hong Kong Public Hospitals We are writing to you as a group of local surveyors, trained and appointed by the Australian Council on Healthcare Standards (ACHS), involved in the hospital accreditation programme. We are grateful to you and the Panel on Health Services for inviting us to express our views regarding the implementation of hospital accreditation in Hong Kong. Hong Kong surveyors are an assemblage of healthcare professionals and executives with vast experience in clinical services and healthcare management. We come from diversified background of clinical, nursing, allied health and administrative disciplines, both in the private and public sectors. We have in particular one thing in common- we are all staunch advocates of quality and safety. We are keen to support and see the full implementation of hospital accreditation in Hong Kong. Hospital accreditation is a well recognized tool for continuous quality improvement in the healthcare setting. With rising concerns about patient safety and desire for quality healthcare, hospital accreditation is gaining popularity and wide acceptance globally. As surveyors, we can attest to the usefulness and relevance of hospital accreditation locally. Having been involved in the pilot scheme, we have witnessed the dedication and Page 1 of 7 commitment of healthcare workers in using accreditation as the tool to bolster quality in domains such as clinical safety, care efficacy and patient experience in alignment with international standards. -
New Acute Hospital at Kai Tak Development Area
Task Force on Kai Tak Harbourfront Development For discussion on 23 May 2018 TFKT/06/2018 New Acute Hospital at Kai Tak Development Area PURPOSE This paper seeks Members’ views on the preliminary design concept of the New Acute Hospital (NAH) at Kai Tak Development Area (KTDA) by the Hospital Authority (HA), ahead of the upcoming procurement of the Foundation Works. Further development of the overall design will be carried out during the next Work Stage and presented to the Task Force on Kai Tak Harbourfront Development expected in 2019. BACKGROUND 2. To meet the long-term demand for healthcare services and facilities in Kowloon arising from the growing and ageing population, the Government has reserved sites in KTDA for hospital development. The Kai Tak Development is a major project covering the ex-airport site, together with adjoining districts of Kowloon City, Wong Tai Sin and Kwun Tong. The KTDA will have a mix of housing, community, business, tourism and infrastructural uses. With the Government’s plan to strive for increasing the development intensity in Kai Tak Development, the population of KTDA is to be increased to about 134 000 upon completion of the planned developments in KTDA. 3. There are currently eight hospitals or institutions in the Kowloon Central Cluster (KCC), namely Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Kowloon Hospital, Hong Kong Buddhist Hospital, Hong Kong Eye Hospital, Kwong Wah Hospital, Wong Tai Sin Hospital, Our Lady of Maryknoll Hospital and Hong Kong Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service Headquarters. HA formulated the Clinical Services Plan (CSP) for KCC in 2016 providing an overarching clinical strategy to align and inform the future services developments in KCC. -
Views on Women in the Cities of Asia: Migration and Urban Adaptation, James T
INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced tec lino logy has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Pagets)” . If it was possible to obtain the missing pagets) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2 . When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image o f the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner o f a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. -
