Throughout the continued recovery stages of the pandemic, hospitals have been the main point of contact for communities alike. Having served as the backbone of health systems, it is imperative that they ensure ongoing functionality, operation work, and resilience, as well as the safety of all patients and employees. In today's medical landscape where the health needs of patients vary, resilience is day-to-day, which gives hospitals opportunities to adapt and transform.
For Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur (PHKL), putting patients first is no new concept. Having been the first hospital in Kuala Lumpur to vaccinate government healthcare workers and those from other hospitals, PHKL remains to create cultures that put patients first. What is more, the pandemic provided experience in creating ground-breaking clinical achievements as well as a strong management team for well-rounded support.
Taking a look back at their recent advances, one of PHKL's many accolades was in winning the Team of the Year - Healthcare Award at the Malaysia Management Excellence Awards 2022. In light of this recognition, the award, which was presented by Singapore Business Review, accentuated PHKL's continued innovation in improving patient health outcomes by the hospital's dedicated clinical research team. Ensuring that the coordination of clinical services to develop new treatments and value-based care is performed safely and ethically, an experienced clinical trials team of 6, is spearheaded by the hospital’s clinical research manager, Dr Wong Shin Yee.
