Programme Highlights

The Private Healthcare Facilities Ordinance (Cap. 633) (the Ordinance), gazetted on 30 November 2018, introduced a new regulatory regime for private healthcare facilities (PHFs) comprising hospitals, day procedure centres, clinics and health services establishments in Hong Kong. Pursuant to section 102 of the Ordinance, the Director of Health may issue codes of practice to set out the licensing standards in respect of the equipment, fittings and furnishings, management and staffing, quality of care and patient safety, and other matters for protecting the health and interest of service recipients. Heatlhcare engineering systems of a PHF, including electrical installations, specialized ventilation systems and medical gas pipeline systems, are important to ensuring safe delivery of service to patients.

The technical seminar will introduce the requirements, standards and guidelines of healthcare engineering systems of private hospitals and day procedure centres. The presentation will also cover the requirement of certification of the design and installation of healthcare engineering systems in private hospitals by registered professional engineers of a relevant discipline (i.e. electrical, mechanical or building services).
