What Yan Chai Hospital does

Yan Chai Hospital Board is a non-profit charitable organization founded in 1962 and headquartered at 7-11 Yan Chai Street, Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong. Governed by an annually renewed Board of Directors (currently the 59th term, inaugurated April 2026), the organization operates 126 service units across Hong Kong with approximately 3,600 staff, delivering nearly 1.2 million service attendances annually. Its service portfolio spans four integrated verticals: medical services (hospital care, Chinese medicine clinics across Tsuen Wan, Kwai Tsing, and Sham Shui Po, dental clinics in 10+ locations, ophthalmology, and hemodialysis), social services (elderly care homes, rehabilitation and disability services, youth and child care, volunteer programs), education services (affiliated kindergartens, primary and secondary schools, Elder Academies, and the LATTE electronic learning evaluation platform), and charitable programs (emergency relief funds, columbarium services, catering training, and social housing projects).

Revenue is generated through four streams: medical and professional service fees (fee-for-service with charitable assistance via the Yan Chai Donated Medicine Application Fund), retail health product sales (HK$100 health soup packages and herbal tea sold through an online shop), recurring donations (monthly giving programs and corporate partnerships under the YC Heart scheme), and government subsidies from the Social Welfare Department and related funds including the Environment and Conservation Fund (over HK$17 million allocated for green education). Strategic partners include the Hong Kong Jockey Club (community hub and dementia screening), Hong Kong Baptist University (Chinese medicine training), Bank of China (Hong Kong) (co-located medical centre), and Buddha Light Association (co-managed disability hostels).

Underlying technology is service-delivery oriented rather than platform-based: a multi-payment e-commerce storefront (supporting Visa, MasterCard, UnionPay, PayPal, Octopus, Alipay, BoC Pay, WeChat Pay HK, and FPS), the LATTE learning evaluation platform, SSL-secured donation and registration flows, and Web Accessibility Recognition Scheme Triple Gold certified website infrastructure. Marketing and fundraising are conducted through the official website, Facebook, email newsletter (Yan Chai Today), PR through a dedicated Corporate Communications Department, community events, and corporate partnership channels.
