理大续办职业治疗及物理治疗硕士课程 支援社福界提升医护复康服务

理大续办职业治疗及物理治疗硕士课程 支援社福界提升医护复康服务 香港医疗护理服务需求日益殷切，然而专业治疗师人手却一直供不应求，社福界情况更为严重，令非政府社福机构难以满足社会大众对医护复康服务的需求。有见及此，社会福利署（社署）透过与香港理工大学（理大）协作，于2012年开始推出一项培训资助计划，以助纾缓社福机构人手短缺的问题。 在此项资助计划下，理大于2012年开办了两年全日制职业治疗学硕士及物理治疗学硕士课程，为有志成为专业治疗师服务社福界的人士提供进修机会。获取录的学生可向非政府社福机构申请资助，并须于毕业后为已选定的社福机构连续服务三年。 此资助计划推出以来，成效非常理想，过去四届共培育了超过250名学生，他们毕业后投身不同社福机构，为长者、残疾人士或有特殊需要的儿童提供医护复康服务。由于计划深受社福界欢迎，因此计划将于2021至2023年继续推行，为期三届，而新一届硕士课程现在开始接受报名(截止日期为2020年8月26日)。 理大康复治疗科学讲座教授及系主任曾永康教授表示：「根据《医疗人力规划和专业发展策略检讨报告》，到了2030年，香港将欠缺约190名职业治疗师及900名物理治疗师。为应对社福机构的需要，理大于2012至2020年，隔年开办了职业治疗学硕士及物理治疗学硕士课程，合共四届，为业界培育专业的治疗师。由于社福界十分支持，故理大决定于2021至2023年将课程改为每年开办，为期三届。」 理大的职业治疗学硕士及物理治疗学硕士课程，第五届现正接受报名，课程将于2021年1月开课。欢迎持有学士学位并已完成人体生理学及人体解剖学各三个学分人士报名，曾修读心理学、营养学或人体运动学等医护相关课程者将获优先考虑。此两项课程毕业生可获香港专业认可资格。获取录者均可申请社署的培训资助计划。 详情请浏览： https://polyu.hk/viChw 申请报读课程(截止日期为2020年8月26日): https://polyu.hk/xWBuL

Occupational Therapy Online Summer Programme - Elite Occupational Therapist Taster Programme (EOTTP) 2020

With the full support from the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences (RS), members of Occupational Therapy Student Ambassador (OTSA) have successfully held the Elite Occupational Therapist Taster Programme (EOTTP) on 4 August 2020. This programme has been organized annually to promote Occupational Therapy (OT) profession to secondary school students. Due to the sudden surge of confirmed local COVID-19 cases, this year the Programme has been switched from face-to-face to online mode to minimize the risk of infections. A total number of 278 Secondary 4 and Secondary 5 students has joined the EOTTP held from 9:30am to 12:00noon on 4 August through Zoom. After the welcome speech given by Prof. Hector Tsang (Cally Kwong Mei Wan Professor in Psychosocial Health, Chair Professor of Rehabilitation Sciences and Head of RS), two mini seminars were delivered by Prof. Kenneth Fong (Professor and Programme Leader of BSc (Hons) in OT) and Mr Tony Wong (Clinical Associate (OT) of RS) to let audience have a brief understanding about OT and PolyU OT Programme. In order to let the participants know more about the actual work of Occupational Therapist, a student sharing session on “We Care, We Share“ which is a community service project for rural residents with disabilities has been conducted. Moreover, a virtual tour has been organized and led by OT Clinical Associates and Student Ambassadors, so that participants could develop basic understanding about human anatomy, splinting in musculoskeletal rehabilitation, sensory integration in pediatric rehabilitation and assistive technology for people with disabilities. Although the delivering mode this year is different from the previous years, it is still hoped that this online programme could give the participants an overview of OT beforehand.

Physiotherapy Summer Programme 2020

The PolyU Summer Programme, a university-wide activity for senior secondary school students, has been offered since 2015. This year, due to the sudden surge of confirmed local COVID-19 cases, the delivery mode has been changed from face-to-face to online mode to minimize the risk of infections. Despite the change of delivery mode, PolyU Summer Programme 2020 – Physiotherapy (PT) was successfully held by the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences (RS) on 28 July 2020 and attracted 275 Secondary 4 and Secondary 5 students from top local secondary schools to join the programme. After the 30-minute programme talk delivered by Dr Billy So (Assistant Professor in PT of RS) which gives the students a brief concept on the PT programme, a virtual teaching laboratory tour was organized to let students understand more about PT profession. A student sharing session has also been arranged, in which several PT students have been invited to share their views on pursuing PT study in PolyU. At the end of the programme, Dr Freddy Lam (Assistant Professor in PT of RS) delivered a mini online lecture with the topic as “Preventing Falls in Older People” to give the students a better understanding of PT practice. The whole programme received positive feedback from the participants and it is hoped that the programme can continue to be held every year to promote PT profession to secondary students.
