It maps out the planned future services of the hospital taking into consideration amongst other things its current and projected service demands. The Clinical Services Plan will form an integral part of a master development plan that guides the design and construction of the new buildings and facilities. The executive summary can be read in isolation but readers are encouraged to address the report in its entirety. About KWH The KWH, a district hospital under the management of the Hospital Authority (HA), is part of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals (TWGHs). It is located in central Kowloon and is one of the hospitals in the HA’s Kowloon West Cluster for purposes of management and service networking. Physically it is at the boundaries of the Kowloon Central Cluster and within a comfortable walking distance to the major referral hospital of the Kowloon Central Cluster, the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH). The hospital has a unique culture which reflects its charitable origins and community identity. The staff members are intensely loyal and for many it is more of a vocation than a job. The commitment to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) also reflects the historical development of the TWGHs. 2 Background of the Review The majority of the infrastructure of the KWH is over 50 years old and not conducive to the type of care now being offered. The decision has been made, with the full support of all stakeholders, to rebuild the hospital on its current campus. This strategic planning process was established to determine the models of care, technological advances and human factors necessary to fulfil the aspirations of all parties for a redeveloped KWH. The shared objectives for the redeveloped hospital are: • A greater focus on care in an ambulatory setting • True integration of service delivery and research in TCM • To build on the skills that have enabled KWH to become a leader in minimally invasive procedures Clinical Services Plan for the Redevelopment of Kwong Wah Hospital 3 Planning Process An international consultant with experience in similar projects was appointed to advise the project team. The project team was drawn from members of the Strategy and Planning Division of the HA and chaired by the Director of the Division. An advisory panel of eminent health experts was also established to advise the project team on matters of process as well as to provide professional insight into aspects of clinical practice. The Steering Committee chaired by the Chief Executive of the HA oversaw the project. The review examined each clinical discipline / specialty. The methodology involved a questionnaire which was distributed to 30 clinical departments of KWH and to a further 55 in the four adjoining hospitals: Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH), TWGHs Wong Tai Sin Hospital ( WTSH), Our Lady of Maryknoll Hospital (OLMH), and QEH. Data from the HA’s own data warehouse was analysed and reconciled with the survey responses from the individual clinical units. An intensive one month consultation period was held in March 2009. In all, about 200 staff members participated in the 30 sessions conducted at KWH and 8 sessions at PMH and QEH. The project team recognises that planning hospitals on the perceived future and aspirations of individual disciplines is valid but likely to produce a dysfunctional aggregation of fiefdoms. The project team has also examined international trends in hospital development and models of care. These considerations frame the recommendations. 4 Existing Service KWH offers a comprehensive range of clinical services, however, notable gaps in the services are non-radiation oncology, cardiothoracic surgery, paediatric surgery and psychiatry. There are presently about 1,200 beds. Each day a total of 1,800 to 2,000 patients attend the specialist, family and general outpatient clinics. Around 350 to 400 patients attend the Accident and Emergency Department each day of which slightly more than one quarter are admitted. These admissions are, in turn, around 45% of the total daily admissions. About 5,500 babies are born in the hospital each year. Although the hospital is of necessity a large general hospital, pockets of excellence and innovation exist in, for example, stroke management and minimally invasive procedures across a range of disciplines. A significant proportion of the hospital’s workload relates to cancer which, in addition to the emergency presentations is fuelled by the Well Men’s and Well Women’s clinics operated by the TWGHs. Considerable expertise and experience is available for breast, head and neck, colonic and prostate malignancies. Recommended Service Direction A very condensed presentation of future direction for each clinical service is presented in the tables on the following page which were developed for each discipline (i) a scored role delineation, (ii) recommended service enhancement, (iii) ambulatory care component, and (iv) opportunities for collaboration with TCM.

  • The Guangzhou-Hongkong Strike, 1925-1926
    The Guangzhou-Hongkong Strike, 1925-1926 Hongkong Workers in an Anti-Imperialist Movement Robert JamesHorrocks Submitted in accordancewith the requirementsfor the degreeof PhD The University of Leeds Departmentof East Asian Studies October 1994 The candidateconfirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where referencehas been made to the work of others. 11 Abstract In this thesis, I study the Guangzhou-Hongkong strike of 1925-1926. My analysis differs from past studies' suggestions that the strike was a libertarian eruption of mass protest against British imperialism and the Hongkong Government, which, according to these studies, exploited and oppressed Chinese in Guangdong and Hongkong. I argue that a political party, the CCP, led, organised, and nurtured the strike. It centralised political power in its hands and tried to impose its revolutionary visions on those under its control. First, I describe how foreign trade enriched many people outside the state. I go on to describe how Chinese-run institutions governed Hongkong's increasingly settled non-elite Chinese population. I reject ideas that Hongkong's mixed-class unions exploited workers and suggest that revolutionaries failed to transform Hongkong society either before or during the strike. My thesis shows that the strike bureaucracy was an authoritarian power structure; the strike's unprecedented political demands reflected the CCP's revolutionary political platform, which was sometimes incompatible with the interests of Hongkong's unions. I suggestthat the revolutionary elite's goals were not identical to those of the unions it claimed to represent: Hongkong unions preserved their autonomy in the face of revolutionaries' attempts to control Hongkong workers.

  • Board Paper AAB/17/2019-20 (Annex C)
    Heritage Appraisal of Tin Hau Temple Annex C and the adjoining buildings, Yau Ma Tei, Kowloon Tin Hau Temple and the adjoining buildings (the “Temple Historical Compound”) in Yau Ma Tei are significant in the history of Kowloon as Interest a multi-functional place of worship, arbitration and study. The compound comprises five buildings, namely Tin Hau Temple (天后古 廟 ), Kung Sor (公所) (Communal Hall) (now Kwun Yam Lau She Tan 觀音樓社壇), Fook Tak Tsz (福德祠) (now Kwun Yam Temple 觀音 古廟) and the two Shu Yuen (書院) (Schools) (now a Shing Wong Temple 城隍廟 and exhibition centre). The Temple Compound is so well known that the neighbouring Temple Street is also named after it. It was initially administered by a temple management committee (天 后 廟 值 理 會 ) formed by local merchants and residents. Its management was officially delegated to Kwong Wah Hospital1 by the Chinese Temples Committee (華人廟宇 委 員 會 ) in 19282 . The operating surplus of the Temple Compound was not only used by Kwong Wah Hospital to build the new labour room and to repay Tung Wah Hospital’s previous loans, but also served to finance the charitable services of the later Tung Wah Group of Hospitals (TWGHs). The Tin Hau Temple, which was the first building constructed within the compound, replaced an earlier Tin Hau Temple probably built in 1865 by the local community at around the junction of today’s Pak Hoi Street and Temple Street3. According to the inscription on the granite 1 Tung Wah Hospital, Kwong Wah Hospital and Tung Wah Eastern Hospital were amalgamated into a single entity, and the name “Tung Wah Group of Hospitals” (TWGHs) was adopted.

    LC Paper No. CB(2)2279/11-12(03) For discussion on 11 June 2012 Legislative Council Panel on Health Services Redevelopment of Kwong Wah Hospital Purpose This paper briefs Members on the proposed redevelopment of Kwong Wah Hospital (KWH). Background 2. At present, the Hospital Authority (HA) provides public hospital services for Sham Shui Po, Mongkok, Wong Tai Sin, Kwai Tsing, Tsuen Wan and North Lantau districts through its Kowloon West (KW) cluster, which comprises KWH, Caritas Medical Centre, Our Lady of Maryknoll Hospital, Wong Tai Sin Hospital, Kwai Chung Hospital, Princess Margaret Hospital and Yan Chai Hospital. KWH was established in 1911 and is a major acute hospital offering a comprehensive range of acute care services. Need for Redevelopment of KWH Aging Hospital Buildings 3. The majority of the KWH buildings is over 50 years old. With the passage of time, its space provision has become inadequate and building services installations out-dated. The structural conditions of the buildings have also been deteriorating. Being located in a densely populated area, KWH is one of the busiest hospitals of HA. The extremely heavy utilisation of KWH has also accelerated deterioration of its facilities. 4. Apart from the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals (TWGHs) Tsui Tsin Tong Out-patient Building (TTT OPB) which was built in 1999 and the Tung Wah Museum which is a declared monument built in 1911, the rest of the hospital buildings at KWH are old and in need of redevelopment. The Main Hospital Building was constructed in stages between 1959 and 1964. The Staff Barracks, Chinese Medicine Clinical Research and Services Centre, Nurses’ Quarters and Administration Building were all constructed in the 1960s and are in need of constant repairs.

Colonialism versus Nationalism: The Plague of Hong Kong in 1894 Drawing upon different source materials, this paper examines the significance of the plague of Hong Kong in 1894 in two ways. Firstly, it shows the process by which the colonial power successfully implemented the public health policy in Hong Kong by collaborating with the local Chinese communities. Secondly, it demonstrates how the Chinese in Hong Kong responded to the colonial mandatory measures by resisting them or partially accepting them. This paper highlights the reactions of the Chinese towards the prevention measures implemented by the British, and the controversy about the effectiveness of Chinese and western medicine in safeguarding public health. Keywords: Hong Kong plague, colonialism, Aoyama-Kitasato-Yersin controversy, Tung Wah Hospital, Chinese and Western medicine Colonialism versus Nationalism: The Plague of Hong Kong in 1894 Pui-Tak Lee Centre of Asian Studies, University of Hong Kong I.
