Characteristics of the center

Introduction


The average life expectancy of Hong Kong people has reached over 80 years, ranking among the top in the world. Alone with this, diseases related to aging and physical degeneration; such as stroke, cardiovascular diseases, and joint degeneration, are becoming increasingly common. According to the research by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), many health problems related to degeneration are closely associated with sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercise.


Tung Wah Group of Hospitals SMART (Special Multi-functional and Advanced Rehabilitation Training) Centre has been in operation since 2014, aiming to provide state-of-the-art fitness equipment, accompanied by the assessment and personalized guidance of physiotherapist, provides ongoing support to community members, with a particular focus on seniors and those in need of rehabilitation. Through our "Exercise is Medicine" philosophy, we aim to combat the effects of aging and promote a culture of regular physical activity.

Tthe center has been renamed the "Tung Wah Group of Hospitals Chan Un Chan SMART Centre" to serves as a testament to their noble deeds and the enduring legacy of their support.
