Private hospital Subang Jaya Medical Centre (SJMC) received the ESG Program of the Year - Malaysia category win at the recently held Healthcare Asia Awards 2024 for several of its initiatives that have contributed to the larger good of healthcare sustainability.
Amongst these initiatives include the Global Surgery Initiative (GSI), the first-of-its-kind public-private partnership in Malaysia with the Malaysian Society of Anaesthesiologists, backed by the Ministry of Health Malaysia, that showcases an unparalleled innovation in addressing healthcare disparities and transforming lives through cutting-edge surgical interventions to underserved communities. Life-saving surgeries in rural areas GSI has bridged the gap between anaesthesia and surgical care by collaborating with local communities in Sarawak. SJMC connects expert anaesthesiologists, surgeons, and nurses with patients in remote areas, performing more than 50 life-saving surgeries through two successful missions in rural areas. SJMC has also championed preventive healthcare through its “If Not Now, When? #endcervicalcancer” community campaign with ROSE Foundation and SJ ECHO. Through strategic partnerships, the hospital offers free and easy DIY HPV screening, aligning with ESG values and prioritising the well-being of women in the community with this initiative.
