第一屆為了慶祝香港急症護士學會(HKENA)成立十週年和香港急症科護理學院(HKCEN)成立的好日子，

特別於六月七日擧辦第一屆香港急症科護理研討會。為了隆重其事，我們邀請了香港醫院管理局護

士總經理馮玉娟女士為大會致開幕辭，更邀請多位資深的同業翹首為我們分享經驗和展望未來急症

科的發展。

當日蒞臨參與的同業十分踴躍，單是報名人次已達一百八十多人，當中有七十六人是來自私家醫院

的同業，而急症科護士佔一百零三人，但碍於場地座位所限，只能接受一百四十人参與。我們邀請

了兩位新晉的護師顧問(Nursing Consultant)鍾婉雯和蘇鳳玲護士為我們分享急症科護理專業發展

和培訓，此外研討會亦邀請急症科護士同業們分享他們的實証科研、以及嶄新的臨床技巧，他們分

別是來自新界西聯網、律敦治醫院和聯合醫院的同事，雖然這次研討會所安排的時間略為短足，但

閉幕前講員與出席者共商砌礎和分享，學習氣氛濃厚，這次研討會確為急症科護理奠下里程碑，標

誌着急症科護理已邁向新紀元，跨出傳统的規範。𠄘蒙籌備委員會和各協助的同事默默耕耘，令這

次研討會得到成功，僅以致謝。現將講員及其講題、及出席者的回饋分述如下：

Leung Po Shan, MelissaHKENA Welfare Offi cer

What’s the relationship between first and tenth? It’s not a math question but

I am so proud to tell you that first equals to the first Annual General Meeting

(AGM) of the Hong Kong College of Emergency Nursing (HKCEN) while tenth

is the 10th AGM of the Hong Kong Emergency Nurses Association (HKENA).

The official inauguration of the HKCEN on the 12th May, 2012 marked the

new millennium of Hong Kong Emergency Nursing. In order to celebrate this

spectacular event, the two sisters of emergency nursing, joined hand in hand

to have our conjoint AGM and annual dinner at the Eaton Hotel in Kowloon.

We have broken several records this year. First, we had the highest

numbers of members enrolled for the conjoint AGM and annual dinner.

We had numerous VIPs and guests representing different organizations

to share the joy with us. Moreover, we had our prestigious speaker, Dr.

Susie LUM, president of the Provisional Hong Kong Academy of Nursing

(PHKAN) to share with us her wisdom – SSS (SSS is her initial). The first S

was serenity, the quality of peace, calmness, harmony despite emergency

situation, the unique characteristics of an emergency nurse. The second S

was solidarity, the act of unity resulting from common interests or feelings.

The sol id foundat ion of emergency nurses development was bui l t on

solidarity, courage and contribution of our senior nurses. The third S was

synergy, the power of synergism that unites all of our emergency nurses with

professional nurses from other specialties make our dreams come true - the

establishment of the HKCEN and the PHKAN.

During the dinner, we showed a video featuring snapshot of activities and

achievements in emergency nursing in the past ten years. Laughter and

cheers were heard all over the ballroom. The pictures brought back all our

good memories of the sweet old days. I am sure this is especially true for our

respectable seniors and retired members.

Members’ emotions were pushed to the peak during the game session.

We were invited to give a gift to celebrate the birthday of HKCEN and

the 10th anniversary of HKENA. Some members drew pictures, some

h a n d m a d e p a p e r f l o w e r s w i t h

mater ia l s ava i l ab le in hand, some

handmade paper rockets to s ign i fy

that the future developments of both

o rgan i za t i ons wou ld resemb le t he

t w o w i n n e r s w e re n u r s e s f ro m t h e

Kowloon West Cluster, Princess Margaret

Hospita l (PMH) and Yan Chai Hospita l

(YCH). Col leagues f rom PMH rewrote

the l y r i cs o f a popu la r adver t i sement

song to praise the professionalism and sacrifice of emergency nurses. This

song would certainly refresh our sweet memories during our training and

career development. Colleagues from YCH made a heart-shape figure out

from members’ hands, which represented the hearts and passions of our

emergency nurses. With all the special gifts from members, this is certainly

the most unforgettable annual dinner to all of us. The annual dinner came to

an end after giving out prizes to the winning teams. We definitely are looking

forward to our next joint AGM and annual dinner in 2013.

The Society for Emergency Medic ine in S ingapore Annual Scient i f ic

Conference 2012 (SEMS ASC 2012) held on 24-26 February 2012, bring

together over 300 emergency medicine and health care professionals

f rom 12 countr ies to share current best pract ices and knowledge to

enhance learning, teaching, supervision and clinical practice. The three-

day Conference assembled distinguished physicians and nurses who also

conducted educational pre-conference workshops and symposia, where

they shared insights on recent advances in the field of emergency medicine.

It is my honour to have a chance to give an oral presentation on the topic

of “The Evolution of Emergency Nursing Training in Hong Kong” on behalf

Ms Ng Lai HanT&D Sub-committee, HKENA

Oral Presentation on “The Evolution of Emergency Nursing Training in Hong Kong”

Dinner with Singapore Emergency Nurses Chapter Council Members

Networking Dinner with other Faculty at Singapore Flyer

20122012SingaporeSingaporeEmergency Medicine Symposium (SEMS)2020

of HKENA”. With progression of advance and systemic training

for emergency nurses, our aspiration is that HKCEN & HKENA

will one day become part of the region's leading fortifiers for

emergency nurses to network and share our expertise which is

eventually beneficial to all our patients.

Professor Amal Mattu; from the University of Maryland School

of Medicine, USA and Professor Colin Robertson; from the

University of Edinburgh, UK had delivered illuminating keynotes.

I was impressed by the pol l ing exercise, conducted during

the Open Forum session to gather opinions on the "State of

Emergency Medical Care in Singapore". This inevitably added

another dimension to the meeting.

In addition to the presentation, President of HKCEM Dr. Ho, President of

HKSEMS Dr. Siu & I was delighted to have a networking dinner for Faculty

at the Singapore Flyer with memorable sunset higher up in the sky. During

the geniality dinner arranged by the Singapore Emergency Nurses Chapter,

I seized to explore chances of future collaboration in promoting emergency

nursing. Differences & similarities of emergency room services between us

were discussed.

Thanks HKENA for supporting me for this invaluable experience.

臨時香港護理專科學院於4月14日在

沙田大會堂對出廣場舉辦<<世界衛生日健

康嘉年華>>。一如以往，香港急症科護理學院及香

港急症科護士學會攜手參與是次活動。

活動當天，學會主席李浣文、學院主席李萍

及各急症室同事，一起參與。我這個初

來報到「新血」很高興能夠參與其中。

而我們攜帶專業裝備到場，為大會提供急救服務; 此外，還需要在台上

試範及教導市民替病人進行心肺復甦法CPR 及運用自動體外心臟去顫器

AED進行急救。

過程中，最令我難忘的是教導市民進行急救那部份。經過充滿汗水的教導及

與參加者實習後，考試成功的參加者取得參與證書，並說日後如果遇到同樣的情

況，會有信心處理或幫助急救者，將當天學到的學以致用，救急扶危。

想不到我這個「新血」在大家的協助下，也有資格教導別人。老實說，看到那些市民成功取得

參與證書，我比他們更有滿足感啊! 原來我的工作不止是在急症室內救助病人，在急症

室外，也可透過教導市民，從而救助更多有需要的人。這麼有意義，我那天的

汗水可真沒有白流，哈哈 !
