Building Knowledge, Strengthening Partnerships

Columbia Asia Hospital Taiping recently conducted an exclusive Basic Pharmacy Training under the GP Affiliate Program, welcoming clinic assistants from Klinik Dr. Sudha, Tan Cheng Leng Clinic, Klinik M.G. Lim, and Poliklinik Choong & Lim.

The training aimed to equip participants with essential pharmacy knowledge — from recognizing high-alert and look-alike medications to learning proper dispensing methods aligned with professional standards. Our pharmacy team also shared best practices for ensuring patient safety and accuracy in medication handling.

On the second day, participants had the opportunity to tour our pharmacy and hospital facilities, gaining valuable insights into real-world hospital pharmacy operations.

This program not only enhances the competency of clinic assistants but also strengthens collaboration between our hospital and GP clinics, which play a vital role in coordinated patient care.

GPs who wish to nominate their clinic assistants for future sessions are welcome to contact our Training Coordinator, Mr. Lim Wing Hoo:​

Your arm suddenly goes numb. Or one side of your body won’t move. You panic… then, minutes later, it all goes away. “𝙄𝙩 𝙬𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙖𝙬𝙖𝙮…𝙨𝙤 𝙄 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙗𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙚, 𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩?”

🚨 But in reality, you might be in danger. What happened was likely a mini stroke, also known as a 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗜𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸 (𝗧𝗜𝗔). It’s a warning sign of a potential major stroke.

Mini stroke vs Ischemic stroke, what’s the difference?
👉 Mini Stroke: A brief blockage in blood flow to the brain. Symptoms fade quickly, but it’s a warning that your blood vessels may be narrowing.
👉 Ischemic stroke: A complete blockage of blood flow to the brain. Symptoms last longer and can cause permanent brain damage if not treated immediately.

❤️ This World Stroke Day, share this to raise awareness and save lives.

Seek medical care even if symptoms disappear. Act FAST and speak with a specialist now: bit.ly/4ngu4FV

Tangan anda tiba-tiba rasa kebas. Atau sebelah badan tidak boleh digerakkan. Anda mula panik… tapi beberapa minit kemudian, semuanya kembali seperti biasa. “𝘿𝙖𝙝 𝙤𝙠𝙖𝙮 𝙗𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙠… 𝙟𝙖𝙙𝙞 𝙨𝙖𝙮𝙖 𝙨𝙞𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙨𝙖𝙟𝙖, 𝙠𝙖𝙣?”

🚨 Tapi sebenarnya, anda mungkin dalam bahaya. Apa yang terjadi berkemungkinan adalah strok ringan (mini strok), atau dikenali sebagai 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗻 𝗜𝘀𝗸𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗮 𝗦𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗮 (𝗧𝗜𝗔). Ianya adalah salah satu amaran strok yang lebih serius bakal berlaku.

🧠 Strok ringan vs strok iskemia – apa bezanya?
👉 Strok ringan: Sekatan sementara aliran darah ke otak. Simptom hilang dengan cepat, tetapi ia adalah petanda bahawa saluran darah anda semakin sempit.
👉 Strok iskemia: Sekatan sepenuhnya aliran darah ke otak. Simptom berpanjangan dan boleh menyebabkan kerosakan kekal pada otak jika tidak dirawat segera.

❤️ Sempena Hari Strok Sedunia, kongsikan mesej ini untuk sebarkan kesedaran dan selamatkan nyawa.

Columbia Asia Hospital Klang recently hosted a GP MedTalk titled “Transforming Care: Clinical Insights in Cardiovascular and Diabetes Management."

The insightful session featured two engaging topics — “Mastering the Glycaemic Triad in High-Risk T2DM” by Consultant Internal Medicine Physician & Nephrologist Dr. T.

The event saw an encouraging turnout, with over 40 general practitioners in attendance. Both speakers shared in-depth clinical updates, best practices, and evidence-based approaches to managing complex cardiovascular and diabetic conditions.

The session provided an excellent platform for knowledge exchange and collaboration between our consultants and GPs, fostering stronger partnerships to improve patient outcomes in the community.

Attendees appreciated the informative presentations and practical takeaways that could be applied in their daily practice. The event concluded with a lively Q&A session, reflecting participants’ keen interest and engagement throughout.
