Introduction of JCECC: Capacity Building and Education Programmes on End-of-Life Care

This video has an aim to arouse awareness about end-of-life issues amongst patients, patients’ families and healthcare professionals on what dying is, how to prepare for dying, and emphasises the importance of communication for better end-of-life care. It also introduces “JCECC: Capacity Building and Education Programmes on End-of-Life Care” by CUHK Jockey Club Institute of Ageing under Jockey Club End-of-life Community Care Project (JCECC).

About “Jockey Club End-of-Life Community Care Project”
Hong Kong is facing a rapidly ageing population, and the number of elderly suffering from terminal illnesses has also escalated correspondingly. In view of the growing demand for end-of-life care services in the community, The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust approved around HK$520 million to initiate the “Jockey Club End-of-Life Community Care Project” (JCECC). Launched in 2016, the ten-year project aims at improving the quality of end-of-life care, enhancing the capacity of service providers, as well as raising public awareness.

JCECC is a multi-disciplinary, multi-institutional and cross-sectoral collaboration to help enhance end-of-life care in Hong Kong with special emphasis on the interface between social and medical systems. Service models are being developed and shaped to provide holistic support to terminally-ill elders in the community and elderly homes. The goal is to enable the city’s older people to have informed choices of care and have an improved quality of life. The Trust’s partners in JCECC are The University of Hong Kong Faculty of Social Sciences, The Chinese University of Hong Kong Jockey Club Institute of Ageing, Hong Kong Association of Gerontology, Haven of Hope Christian Service, The Hong Kong Society for Rehabilitation, St James’ Settlement, S.K.H.
