To meet the primary healthcare needs of residents affected by the fire incident at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, the Primary Healthcare Commission (PHC Commission) coordinated DHCs across all 18 districts in Hong Kong to set up hotlines for providing personalised case management services, offering more convenient and comprehensive medical support. The support includes pairing the affected residents with free consultation services provided by private family doctors and Chinese medicine (CM) practitioners, co-ordinating arrangements for follow-up appointments and medication refills at the Hospital Authority (HA)'s Family Medicine Out-patient (FMOP) Services as necessary, and making referrals to necessary healthcare, nursing and medication services, as well as psychological support.
