It is my great pleasure to celebrate and witness together with you the inauguration of the Academy and its 14 specialty academy colleges, as well as the conferment of honorary/founding fellows and fellows of the Hong Kong Academy of Nursing. The aims of the PHKAN are: (1.) establish the Hong Kong Academy of Nursing as a statutory body to regulate the nursing profession; and (2.) enhance excellence in nursing service and health care in Hong Kong through promotion of specialist nursing education and practices. The actualization of the vision to establish an independent organization to regulate advanced specialty practice for the nursing profession started 6 years ago through the concerted efforts of nurse leaders, specialty nurses, and academics from different sectors. Leaders from all nursing specialties had worked day and night with their colleagues to complete the colossal task of accrediting the Academy Colleges and their fellows . My special thanks to our Secretariat and the Accreditation and Registration Teams who have laboured arduously under tight deadlines to complete the project on schedule and made this inauguration possible. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the honorary fellows, founding fellows, grandfather/grandmother fellows for their passion and significant contributions to the advancement of the nursing profession, and their tremendous support to the founding of PHKAN. I would also like to especially applaud Dr. C.H. Leong, our Patron, for his valuable guidance to the preparatory committee, and his vision and commitment to advance nursing practice and nursing education. My heartfelt thanks to the over 1,500 nurses and friends of nurses present here today - we could not have achieved this milestone without your enthusiastic support, endorsement and encouragement. I must also say thank you for allowing the opportunity, placing the trust and bestowing the honor on me to lead the founding of the PHKAN. I would like to share with you the meaning of the PHKAM emblem. Its many symbols remind us of our core values and the mission the Academy is set to achieve. - the “AN” logo at the centre stands for “Academy of Nursing”, the organization dedicated to the advancement of the nursing profession. It was used by the Preparatory Committee and is retained for use by the formal establishment. - the lamp at the top is the symbol of Florence Nightingale. As you would have already knew, today is International Nurses Day, also Florence Nightingale’s birthday. As the enduring symbol of the nursing profession, it represents Nightingale’s virtues - kindness, gentleness, courage, and Inauguration of the Provisional HK Academy of Nursing unswerving devotion to duty. It reminds the profession of its core values and society’s expectations of quality nursing care. The lamp is glowing, i.e. the values and standards are not 5 static – they advance along with the times. - the open book at the bottom represents the pursuit of knowledge. Through research and education, we have to constantly seek and apply new theories and technology to our practices. - the leaves signify life and growth, as well as connectivity - the collaboration among nursing specialties of the fourteen academy colleges. The Hong Kong Academy of Nursing is the professional association established to govern nursing practices in Hong Kong. It is set up with two key objectives: first, to help nurses; and second, to help those they serve. It is to lead growth and advancement of the nursing profession, and promote collaboration and solidarity among nurse specialties. Secondly, it promotes the highest professional, ethical and governance standards in partnership with the Government and other professional bodies to provide nursing services of excellence to the community. The PHKAN’s objectives can only be achieved if all of us - nurses, doctors, physiotherapists, academics, government officials, patient representatives in public or private hospitals - irrespective of our roles and responsibilities, work in close collaboration and devotion. This spirit of collaboration and fellowship was demonstrated in full force at the setting up of the PHKAN. I am confident that the Hong Kong Academy of Nursing, when formally established, will foster and promote this spirit to new heights. The PHKAN’s current priority is to establish the Academy as a statutory body and along with it, an ordinance enacted to empower the Academy to endow official accreditation to nursing professionals. Good progress has been made with the support and facilitation of the Government, other professional associations and the community. We are hopeful that the enactment process will start soon. The PHKAN is currently operating from a small office in the old nursing school at Princess Margaret Hospital. For the Academy to provide educational services and execute governance duties under its charter, a larger and more befitting facility will be required. In this regard, your support in any capacity, either financially or through volunteer efforts, will be vital for its realization. The inauguration of the PHKAN is just a first step in the long journey towards administering a statutory organization dedicated to advance the nursing profession for a better and healthier Hong Kong. I shall remain committed more than ever to supporting the Academy and serving the nursing profession. And I am confident that I shall have your enthusiastic support for us to reach the many milestones together. Dr. LUM Shun Sui, Susie President, The Provisional HK Academy of Nursing Inauguration of the Provisional HK Academy of Nursing Congratulatory Messages 6 On this special occasion marking International Nurses Day, I am pleased to pay tribute to all nurses in Hong Kong and to warmly congratulate the Provisional Hong Kong Academy of Nursing on its inauguration. Over many decades Hong Kong has developed a highly efficient and world-class healthcare system which provides accessible and affordable healthcare to the entire community. Thanks to the diligence and devotion of our nurses and all sectors of the healthcare profession, Hong Kong has made extraordinary advances in public health. Our city is consistently ranked among the best in the world in major health indicators such as life expectancy and infant mortality. The selfless dedication and commitment of our nurses had helped to ease the pain of patients, bring comfort to families in distress, and win the trust and respect of our community. As we recognize the contributions of nurses around the world, I am pleased to note that the more than 40,000 nurses in Hong Kong make up the largest sector of our city’s healthcare workforce. The inauguration of the Provisional Hong Kong Academy of Nursing is further evidence of the profession’s aspirations to improve and expand through continuing education and promoting excellence. I am confident that our nurses will keep pace with the ever-changing healthcare needs of our society and I wish you all every success in your careers. Mr. LEUNG Chun Ying, GBM, GBS, JP Inauguration of the Provisional HK Academy of Nursing The twelfth of May truly marks a special occasion for nurses as it is the International Nurses Day and 7 anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth. As from this year onwards, it will also be a day to celebrate a remarkable milestone in the development of the nursing profession in Hong Kong. The inauguration of the Provisional Hong Kong Academy of Nursing is a result of years of hard work and commitment, communication and consensus building among nurses and other healthcare professions. To all of you who advocate the continuing development and advancement of the nursing profession, who strive to maintain and uphold professional standards of nurses, and who work for the betterment of our healthcare system, you deserve praise and recognition for your accomplishments. I am pleased to offer my heartfelt congratulations to the Provisional Hong Kong Academy of Nursing and to send you my best wishes for future development.

I had the privilege to witness the historical pathway of the formation of the PHKAN since the initial effort that started in 2002.

This study aims to educate undergraduate nursing students on professionalism using guided reflection on clinical vignettes. Methods: Real-life vignettes were designed to describe common professionalism dilemmas in Obstetrics and Gynecological Nursing curriculum. Teachers used a set of seven questions to trigger discussions and guide reflection on each vignette. During the session, observation notes were taken by peers on teachers’ performance, students interaction and group dynamics during the sessions. After the session, students fill in a survey to report their feedback on the sessions. Results: A total of 91 third-year nursing students participated in the study felt as if they are professional nurses who manage real cases, with feedback from teachers. Students – in groups – were able to indicate stakeholders in each dilemma and advocate their decision. They enjoyed the sessions the highest mean (4.48 ± 0.93) and felt more prepared to encounter similar situations in their future clinical practice.
