Project Basic information
Service Characteristics
St. James aims to integrate housing, health, and occupation together in Cheong San 1. The operator started with improving the living environment and increasing awareness of personal health. The operator cooperates with HKCSS and the Nethersole School of Nursing, Faculty of Medicine, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, providing various body checks for the residents, such as stroke and diabetes tests.
The public areas would become the “community living room”, for residents to meet and interact.
In addition, the Sham Shui Po District Health Centre (SSP DHC) will organize health activities in Cheong San 1 regularly, to promote the concept and knowledge of primary healthcare to residents.
Other than health workshops, the operator will organize employment workshops for residents to develop their careers as well.
The operator launched the “Saving and Maintenance Fund”, which encourages the saving habits of residents. The fund will be returned to residents if the unit is not damaged at the end of the residence period. Otherwise, the fund will be used for the unit's refurbishment.
The project is trying to help residents make good use of their residence period to learn and develop their skills.
Service Output and Impact
Operators
Founded by the Rt. Rev. Bishop R.O. Hall of the Anglican Church in 1949, St. James’ Settlement began as a club for boys and girls in a temple in Stone Nullah Lane, Wanchai. It was then developed into a six-storey building on Kennedy Road in 1963 to provide diversified services, including children and youth services, elderly services and rehabilitation services. In 1987, the headquarters was opened in Stone Nullah Lane so that the scope of services could be further extended. Our first centre outside Wanchai (named Central and Western District Elderly Community Centre) was established in 1990. Since then, different service centres have been developed and most of them are located along the north coast of Hong Kong Island, from The Belcher’s in Western to Hing Wah Estate in Chai Wan. In recent years, in view of the society’s ever changing needs, we have opened service centres in Kowloon and the New Territories. To date, our 73 service points are in operation across Hong Kong. By the end of September 2021, we have over 1,800 staff members to provide a vast range of high quality services for people of different ages and needs. In the past year, around 1,000 volunteers have helped in different service units.
