Dear Colleagues,
While many of us are working hard towards achieving the goals that we have set at the beginning of the year, GHK has been actively drawing up its development plan to support its growth strategy.
We took the opportunity at the latest Town Hall Meeting to share with you the multi-faceted strategic goals for the next few years, covering branding, staffing, clinical services, facility improvement, technology application and business development and more. Going in parallel with our continued effort to raise the brand awareness of IHH and GHK both locally and in Mainland China, we will further strengthen the culture of a “GHK family”, enhancing staff career development, building greater employee satisfaction and promoting a stronger service culture. On the clinical front, we will further develop our outpatient services such as opening more new satellite clinics, raising service capacity of SOC and allied health, promoting telemedicine services, and opening up more operating theatres. While we are excited about taking GHK to the next level, I look forward to your full support and involvement in helping make GHK one of the best hospitals in Hong Kong and beyond!
You may still recall that two years ago we conducted the group-wide Employee Engagement Survey. With the results and feedback obtained from the survey, we have since then progressively rolled out different measures to try to make our hospital an engaging and conducive workplace for all. These include introducing the loyalty bonus, voluntary provident fund scheme, long service award, staff recognition scheme, support for staff well-being, and various staff engagement activities. Two years on, did we manage to achieve what aimed to achieve? The survey will soon be conducted, please tell us what you think to help us better understand the effectiveness of the measures implemented and how else we can make things better for you.
The past few months saw the launch of different celebratory activities for the 10th year of listing of IHH. If you had joined the online global staff event staged a couple of weeks ago, I hope you were as excited as I was when the commemorative gold coin for GHK’s pioneer staff was voted by the IHH community as one of the 10 most symbolic items to be sealed in the IHH Time Capsule. Not only was it a momentous occasion but also a recognition of the great contribution our pioneers had made to GHK during that important stage of our development journey.
As you may be aware, GHK has provided further anti-pandemic support to the community through collaborating with the Hospital Authority to provide free online consultation and medication delivery services for elderly COVID-19 patients. Despite the tight timeline, the service was up and running within a short period of time, and over 9,000 patients have been served since the launch in late August. It was indeed a showcase of great teamwork and professionalism, and I attribute this success to all colleagues who took part in the proficient planning and implementation of the service. Well done team!
Dr Kenneth Tsang
Chief Executive Officer
