From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hong Kong St. John Ambulance (Chinese: 香港聖約翰救護機構; Jyutping: hoeng1 gong2 sing3 joek3 hong3 gau3 wu6 gei3 kau3; Cantonese Yale: heūng góng sing yeuk hong kau wuh geī kau) is a charitable organisation with a long history stretching back over a century and has been serving the community since 1884. Adhered to its motto, "For Faith, For the Service of Mankind", the organisation is dedicated to providing first aid and ambulance services in emergency, dental care for the handicapped, and courses of instructions on first aid and home nursing for the general public. Notably, Hong Kong St. John Ambulance is the only branch of St John Ambulance to provide free dental services as part of their regular services.
