Health and Wellness Team

Trained and reliable first aid

The SHC Health & Wellness Team is dedicated to addressing the growing need for comprehensive care in physical health, mental health, and social well-being within our community. Our mission is to raise awareness of various health issues and promote healthy living practices. We also provide immediate medical assistance for emergency situations in JCSVIII and offer support to those in need.

Our team comprises motivated medical, dental, and nursing students, doctors, healthcare researchers, and students with a passion for Health and Wellness events. We warmly welcome individuals who hold First Aid or Mental Health First Aid qualifications.

 

What sets us apart:

Mental Health Focus: Mental health is a significant concern for both our team and society as a whole. We prioritize the mental well-being of our residents and the Kennedy Town community. By organizing relaxation workshops, community bonding projects, sharing talks, and mental illness screening programs, we aim to promote psychological well-being and combat the stigmatization of mental illnesses.

Community Engagement: We believe in actively engaging with our community. Each year, we organize multiple blood donation drives, health promotion initiatives, and health check-ups in the village and throughout Hong Kong. By giving back to society and sharing our knowledge, we aim to foster understanding between citizens and students. Through these projects, our team members become more passionate and empathetic, creating a positive impact for the future.

Empowerment and Advocacy: In collaboration with other sports and working teams within the college, we organize a variety of activities to strengthen the bonds among residents and promote healthy lifestyles. Our initiatives aim to empower individuals to take responsibility for their own well-being and the well-being of others, both physically and mentally.

We firmly believe in the power of unity and community. If you share our passion and are interested in our cause, we encourage you to join us or collaborate with us. Together, we can make a difference!
