Sai Kung Dispensary. New cases 1,614 Old cases 1,015 Vaccinations 684 Maternity cases 41

494. Until about 18 months ago, the M.O. i/c. New Territories had been in the habit of visiting this village fortnightly to attend a small clinic. In June 1933 the St. John Ambulance Brigade decided to station a midwife there and have a Centre in the village. It proved too difficult for them to run it, owing to the distance by sea from Hong Kong, and they discontinued it this year. While the Brigade visited the village, Government ceased the fortnightly visits, but in August 1934 a Government Dispensary was opened in Sai Kung, staffed by a nurse-midwife and an amah. It consists of the lower floor of a two-storey building near the centre of the village, the front part being the waiting-room and examination room combined, and the back portion being the nurse's and amah's quarters.

495. The A.M.O. i/c. New Territories (East) makes a weekly visit by ferry and police launch.

496. Sai Kung is a very difficult village to reach, and the journey occupies the Medical Officer's whole day.

497. The following is a summary of the work at the dispensary since it was opened on July 30th :—

Cheung Chau Dispensary. New cases 961 Old cases 1,333 Vaccinations 64 Maternity cases 40

498. The Government Medical Officer no longer visits the dispensary here, because the St. John Ambulance Brigade have opened a large new hospital on the Island.
