Submission Deadline: 21 December 2018

The theme of the 4th Annual CPCE Health Conference 2019 is “Towards a More Humanistic, Holistic and Integrated Model of Care”, which aims to explore various issues and stakeholders’ concerns over health care services delivered by both public and private providers.

  • Ageing and population policy
  • Community-based ageing programmes and their effectiveness
  • Development of health care services and long-term care in the Greater Bay Area*
  • Holistic and integrated models of elderly care
  • Monitoring health care services

  • Primary care and district health systems
  • Professional ethics in health care services
  • Quality assurance in long-term care services
