With the relentless effort of many visionaries, advocates and stakeholders, the dream finally came to fruition. In 2007, the government announced in the Policy Address its intention to set up a centre of excellence in paediatrics (CEP) to raise professional standards and patient care through crossfertilisation of expertise, enhanced research and training. A government steering committee comprising of officials, healthcare professionals, academics, as well as NGO and patient group representatives was then formed to examine its service scope, operational model and infrastructure. A building site was later identified in the Kai Tak Development Area. The proposed CEP would concentrate low-volume, high-complexity conditions with purpose-built, age-appropriate facilities that cater for the needs of paediatric patients and families. To prepare for the establishment of the CEP, the Hospital Authority conducted a comprehensive review on its paediatric services. It involved extensive consultation with healthcare professionals across all related hospitals and disciplines, and the formation of 18 specialty / subspecialty groups. There were in-depth deliberations on the current service gaps, future service models, roles delineation, and development aspirations. It also looked into international experience and conducted service demand projection. 為香港設立一所專屬的兒童醫院是一眾 兒科醫生、病童和家人五十年來的夢 想。通過幾代人努力不懈的倡議和爭 取,這個夢想終於成真。 2007 年,政府在《施政報告》中提出建 立兒童專科卓越醫療中心的構想,透過 人才匯聚,加強研究及培訓,提升專 業及醫護水平。政府接着成立督導委員 會,成員包括官員、醫護人員、學者、 非政府機構和病人組織代表,專責研究 中心的服務範圍、運作模式和基礎設 施,其後在啓德發展區物色到一幅建築 用地。建議中的卓越醫療中心會集中處 理數量少但複雜性高的病症,並提供專 門設計及適齡的設施,以切合病童及其 家庭的需要。 為配合中心的成立,醫管局就兒科服務 進行了全面檢討,過程中廣泛諮詢了各 相關醫院醫護人員的意見,並成立了18 個專科 /副專科小組,深入探討現有 服務不足之處、日後服務模式、醫院分 工、發展期望等,同時參考了國際經驗 和推算未來的服務需求。 檢討報告於2011 年出版。根據得出的 共識,報告建議重組兒科服務網絡及採 用軸輻模式—卓越醫療中心將接收第 三層複雜轉介個案,而設有兒科部門 的醫院將提供跟進治療、中層和急症服 務,以及社區護理。科研及培訓方面, 中心應與本地大學及業界合作,推動醫 教研合一。 2013 年六月,立法會財務委員會批准撥 款130 億元,用以興建兒童專科卓越醫 療中心。 The report was published in 2011. With the consensus reached, it recommended to reorganise the paediatric service network by adopting a huband-spoke model. The CEP would serve as the tertiary referral centre for complex cases, while other hospitals with paediatric department would provide emergency, secondary (including stepdown), and community paediatric care. The CEP should also partner with universities and the industry in research and training. In June 2013, funding support was passed by the Finance Committee of the Legislative Council for the $13 billion project to establish the CEP.
