Community education with HKYWCA

Community education with HKYWCA

Quality HealthCare is devoted to supporting the community through education by partnering with groups such as HKYWCA.

 

  • Elderly Wellness Day: We provided free body tests such as blood pressure, blood lipid profile, blood glucose level, blood oxygen level and atrial fibrillation tests to over 100 members of HKYWCA elderly centres in Sai Wan and Tsing Yi. We also donated Atrial Fibrillation (AF) digital devices to the HKYWCA centres to help identify symptoms with a potential risk of causing stroke or other serious heart diseases. It also helped to promote preventive healthcare with the use of health tech in the community.

 

  • Advocating sustainability and health: Quality HealthCare and HKYWCA organised different workshops to connect our people, their family members and the community with the planet's health. To mark World Environment Day 2018, our volunteers spent the summer with 30 senior friends and their carers from the North District in a DIY workshop. By creating hand-made organic mosquito-repelling bars, mosquito sprays and deodorants, they had fun and applied the eco-friendly principles into their daily life in summertime.
