Editorial:Falling Object Incidents at Public Hospitals
文章日期:2023年3月10日

【明報專訊】Since the middle of last month, there have been reports of falling concrete or equipment at public hospitals — one after another, it would be fair to say. First, there was an incident at United Christian Hospital where a surgical lamp fell and caused an injury. Then there was the incident at Tuen Mun Hospital, where the external cover of the gate motor box came off one of the ceiling hoist tracks at a medicine and geriatric ward, though fortunately no one was injured. Furthermore, the media has revealed that in November last year, a piece of spalling concrete in a Castle Peak Hospital ward dropped onto a medical bed, but luckily not hit patients. Yesterday (8 March), in a consultation room at a child and adolescent psychiatric ward of Kwai Chung Hospital, some suspended ceiling tiles and concrete slabs fell off. The largest fragment measured 30 cm by 30 cm. Had the incident not happened in the early hours but during consultation hours, someone could have been injured.
