Hospital Authority Annual Report 2013-2014
Service for psychiatric inpatients were improved with strengthened
workforce of nurses and allied health professionals in all hospital
clusters to provide recovery-oriented treatment programmes to
facilitate early discharge and community re-integration. Community
care for psychiatric patients was strengthened through extending
the case management programme to three more districts to provide
intensive and personalised support for around 2,800 patients with
severe mental illness. The programme covered a total of 15 districts
in the territory, serving 15,000 patients.
HA managed increased workload during high season of flu epidemic
of December 2013 through coordinated effort among hospital
clusters and augmented buffer capacity in acute and convalescent
wards. The arrangement was communicated to the public through
different channels such as press conference, television and radio
interviews as well as issuing daily service statistics during the
Chinese New Year period.
To better manage waiting time, HA enhanced cross-cluster
collaboration by establishing a centrally coordinated mechanism
to pair-up clusters so that suitable patients of certain specialties of
longer waiting time could be referred to those of shorter waiting
time. Capacity for services with pressing issues of waiting time
and access was increased, such as providing 15,000 additional
haemoglobin (HbA1c) tests in four clusters and prenatal screening
for Down Syndrome for all eligible expectant mothers.
