Age healthy, be happy!
To raise awareness of health among the elderly, the Queen Elizabeth Hospital co-organised a ‘Healthy Ageing Programme’ with district elderly community centres in Kowloon City district. Participating elders will have their health knowledge enhanced through introduction of general hospital service, Geriatric Day Hospital, medical consultation procedures and information on dementia. They also visited the Patient Resource Centre, Geriatric Day Hospital, and the Eternal Peace Hall in mortuary to get an idea about the journey of life in hospital setting.
