Background |
|
| The Hong Kong Tuberculosis, Chest & Heart Diseases Association (The Association) was established in 1948. For more than half a century, the Association has worked closely with the Government and non-governmental organizations in the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis, chest and heart diseases. In recent years, the Association has extended its service to elderly care, health promotion and diseases prevention. In response to the huge dental service need of the community, the Association has established the Hong Kong Tuberculosis Association Rusy M. Shroff Dental Clinic in June 2008. It aims to provide quality service and to promote oral health education to the general public. |
