GHK and healthtech company Precision Robotics Hong Kong (PRHK) signed a Memorandum of Understanding to strengthen the collaboration on clinical research of the latest surgical robots developed by PRHK and foster technological innovations in healthcare.

In recent years, GHK has already been working with PRHK on the first in-human trials of the SIRIUS Endoscope System in minimally invasive surgery in gynaecology. Our latest collaboration with PRHK will further reinforce the partnership on clinical research as we strive to bring about better care, higher precision and more advanced options to patients.

At the Town Hall on 14 February, we were privileged to have Mr Joe Sim, Group Chief Operating Officer of IHH Healthcare, who joined us at GHK to brief staff on the Group’s overall direction and goals for sustainability. Riding on the Group’s sustainability approach encapsulated by the four pillars, namely Patient, People, Public and Planet, our CEO Dr Kenneth Tsang also shared with staff GHK’s sustainability goals set for 2023 and how these goals would be reached in phases.

We were also pleased to have Mr Joe Sim and Dr Tsang to address staff questions related to the development direction of IHH and some of the more local topics such as manpower and service growth during the meeting.

Since the establishment of GHK, the hospital and HKUMed have embarked on a unique private-academic partnership which has grown stronger and deeper over the years.

Dean of HKUMed Professor CS Lau and our CEO Dr Kenneth Tsang have recently had a candid dialogue on some of their thoughts and views in the realms of clinical service, talent development and research collaboration under which plausible progress has been achieved.

The two leaders also shared their bigger plans in further strengthening their ties and bringing about more positive impact on the overall development of healthcare in Hong Kong and beyond.

GHK rolled out the “Patient Safety Culture Survey” on 1 February together with all hospitals under IHH Healthcare to promulgate a patient safety culture and evaluate the performance in delivering excellent and safe care to patients.

Colleagues refreshed themselves with patient safety knowledge while enjoying fun games and snacks in the interactive game booth as part of the wider promotion among staff.

Sustainability is to create a better future not only for us, but for generations to come. As a healthcare provider, GHK is committed to taking a step forward to contribute to the well-being of our Patients, our People, the Public and our Planet.

Earlier this month GHK responded to the appeal from the Turkish Consulate General in Hong Kong and initiated a donation of aid supplies from our colleagues to help the victims in the devastating earthquake in Türkiye and Syria. 

Thanks to the outpouring empathy and prompt support from you all, we collected 13 boxes of donations including winter clothing, shelters, sleeping bags, thermal products, hygiene kits, blankets, pillows and more, in just over two days. 

Our heartfelt gratitude to colleagues who offered help during the preparation and to those who volunteered to support the post-collection logistics. 

         

To extend more support to the victims, you are also invited to join the donation campaign of Hong Kong Red Cross (HKRC) to support its emergency relief work in Türkiye and Syria. For every donation made to HKRC by our colleagues by 2 March 2023, GHK will make a matching donation.
