康復治療科學系系主任曾永康教授接受傳媒訪問,分享對基層醫療發展的看法

康復治療科學系系主任曾永康教授接受傳媒訪問,分享對基層醫療發展的看法 康復治療科學系系主任曾永康教授早前接受傳媒專訪,分享他對政府大力推動基層醫療的看法。兼任基層醫療健康發展督導委員會委員的曾教授認為,政府大力推動基層醫療,位於葵青區的全港首間地區康健中心9月底啟用,為區內居民提供健康評估及專職治療,但中心仍有改善空間,應涵蓋更多類型疾病,包括精神健康問題;長遠亦不應靠津貼做誘因,而是要由教育做起加強大眾「治未病」意識。曾教授形容,現時政府是一步步推行基層醫療,「不能說理念不正確」,但不妨行前一些,毋須規範於地區康健中心進行,「康健中心只是其中一個模式,不是唯一機構。」他建議參考先進國家如加拿大的基層醫療理念,「不只是講prevention(預防),是講wellness(健康)。」他解釋wellness 在英文的意思,不止形容身體沒有疾病,而是全面涵蓋生理、心理、社會及精神健康。他認為,基層醫療要做得好,單靠政府是不可能,同時要非牟利機構甚至私人企業參與,亦倚靠專職醫療人員多投入社區,推廣健康服務。他提到理大的職業治療及物理治療科系,曾與志願機構合作,安排學生落區為長者做身體檢查;以及為香港員警學院學員提供運動創傷評估;在慈善跑活動中提供駐場運動物理治療服務等。 目前理大職業治療及物理治療的畢業生,大部分都被醫院吸納,過去五年物理治療生加入醫院的比例達八至九成,職業治療亦達六至七成,投身社區的人相對較少。曾教授說政府知悉問題,希望理大增加學額,但受限於校園空間飽和,需在計劃中的何文田新大樓落成後才能配合。至於學額能夠增加多少,目前未有定案,有待同政府磋商。 傳媒報導:香港經濟日報 A24, 東方日報 A13, am730 A22 網上媒體報導: 香港01 - http://trsurl.com/s/2dsj 香港電台「晨早新聞天地」(約 55:15 至 59:40) - http://trsurl.com/s/2dsl  思考HK - https://bit.ly/2qaVvtu

RS Students awarded Distinguished Thesis Award of FHSS

Distinguished PhD Thesis Award of FHSS - Dr Liu Tai Wa (RS PhD graduate, Supervisor: Prof. Shamay Ng) Dr Liu Tai Wa (right) and his supervisor, Prof. Shamay Ng (left) Sharing by Dr Liu Tai Wa: I would like to take this opportunity to express my deep gratitude to the Faculty of Health and Social Sciences for presenting me the Faculty Distinguished Thesis Award, and the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences for giving me the chance to accomplish a Doctor of philosophy degree. I am glad that I made a firm decision to pursue a PhD degree at The Hong Kong Polytechnic few years ago and grateful to have a precious opportunity to meet my chief supervisor, Professor Shamay Ng, and co-supervisor, Professor Gabriel Ng. They have provided me with their unreserved support and expert guidance along this path, which has not only helped me to complete the PhD degree, but also inspired me to proceed for greater advancement in the future as a researcher. As a part-time student, the learning process has always been busy but fruitful. I have been involved in various research projects which has given me the chances to work with the most knowledgeable and passionate research team of the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences. In addition, the Department of Rehabilitation accommodated me with all the equipment needed and technical support during the research process. With all the support and resources from my supervisors and the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences, we have published seven academic papers and have presented nine abstracts in international conferences. In August of this year, I have successfully passed my oral defense and fulfilled the PhD graduation requirement. Lastly, it has not been easy to complete a PhD programme, but every little encounter and experience gained throughout these years have been enriching and will certainly remain in my memories for life long. Last but not least, I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has been there for me along the way for all their time, effort, support and patience. Distinguished PhD Thesis Award of FHSS -Dr Huang Meizhen (RS PhD Graduate, Supervisor: Prof. Marco Pang) Sharing by Dr Huang Meizhen: It is my great honor to receive the Distinguished Thesis Award. I would like to express my sincere thanks to my supervisor Prof. Marco Pang. I knew little thing about research when I reached PolyU, and now I feel confident to conduct study independently. As the advice from Prof. Pang, interest and self-motivation is crucial to be a researcher. The ability in goal-orientated, self-learning and time-management will be great asset in my life. It is also very grateful that PolyU and RS offers incredible opportunities and tremendous support in both professional and personal development. From lectures and workshops to conferences and overseas exchange, PolyU and RS provides ample resources to research postgraduate students so that we could gear ourselves up the world. Lastly, I want to express my deepest gratitude to RS . I received BSc in physical therapy from Sichuan University while our lectures/clinical placements were conducted by academic staff from RS due to the earthquake in 2008. I did not know the word "physical therapy" and how important it was until I visited the injured persons in the disaster area. Also, until I started study in PolyU, I can't imagine what a great dedication it is that teachers set aside the busy work in Hong Kong and gave lectures in Sichuan. The great sense of mission to promote rehabilitation demonstrated from RS always motivates me. I thank RS and all my teachers.

Occupational Therapy 89 Class Reunion Dinner

The occupational therapy graduates from The Hong Kong Polytechnic in 1989 was recently celebrating their 30th anniversary. A dinner reception was held on October 18th 2019 at the Hong Kong Bankers’ Club. Seven guests were being invited and four tables of buddies had attended the event. Our dear guests included Prof. Chetwyn Chan, Dr Francis Kung, Dr Kit Sinclair, Mr Robert O’Brien, Mrs. Shelley Chow, and Dr York Chow, who had taught us at school (Picture 1). Prof. Hector Tsang, Head of Department of Rehabilitation Sciences, was representing the pleasure of the Alma Mater to attend the anniversary dinner. During the dinner, the teachers shared their memories of the old days when they were teaching at the occupational therapy programme. Dr. Francis Kung, who currently resides in Melbourne, Australia, travelled afar to attend the dinner. Mr Robert O’Brien, who taught design and printing during the days, is still running a design studio in Cheung Chau. During the dinner, there were sharing of stories of now and then, photo-taking, quizzes, etc. arranged by the organizing committee led by the chairlady Ms Mayee Wong (Picture 2). Moreover, there was a FaceTime session with the past programme leader - Dr Baboo Dasari, who is now teaching at the University of Southampton. Ms Joanna James and Ms Donna Murphy, who are now living in the United Kingdom and on the Gold Coast, Queenstown, Australia respectively, also sent their greetings and very best wishes to our celebration. The graduates also played a game to recall the names of the teachers at their times of study in 1986-87. Although not all graduates were now working as occupational therapists in the field, they were all happy to have such a precious gathering, connecting each other after so many years. They are also looking ahead to meet again at the 35th anniversary.
