Health In Mind Programme Kicks off Its New Year
The official commencement of the Health In Mind Programme for academic year 2006-07 was marked by the Orientation Camp at Wu Kai Sha Youth Village in Ma On Shan on 30th September 2006. More than 130 students from 10 participating schools enjoyed the day and learned a lot in the camp.

Guided by the Jardine Ambassadors and social workers from the Boys' and Girls' Clubs Association of Hong Kong, students took part in a series of challenges, like games and group discussions which helped develop their cooperation, communications and leadership skills, and strategic thinking. Youngsters from different schools and levels of study soon established a sense of affiliation and bonding with one another.

"The orientation helps us better understand our mission as student advocates of mental health," a student remarked," and the skills we acquired are essential to the success in planning and organizing activities in the year ahead."

In the coming year, by organizing and participating in various fun, meaningful yet challenging activities, students will not only enrich their knowledge on mental well-being, but also on all aspects relating to personal growth.

新一年度「Teen使行動」正式開展
二○○六至○七年度「Teen使行動 - 青少年思健推廣計劃」迎新營已於九月三十日假烏溪沙青年新村舉行，為新一年度計劃揭開序幕。今年共有十間中學約一百三十多位同學參與這項迎新活動。雖然當日天氣晴雨不定，但絲毫未減活動的熱烈氣氛。

同學們在怡和親善大使及小童群益會社工的帶領下，參加了多項集體遊戲和討論。這些遊戲均講求合作協調，並考驗同學的溝通與領導才能，例如「蜘蛛網」繩陣是考驗隊員間之互信，而最受歡迎的「羅馬炮架」則要求參加者眼明手快、戰略部署兼備。透過連串集體遊戲和集體討論，來自不同學校、不同年級的同學迅速建立了默契，培養團隊精神。

同學們表示，迎新營讓他們更了解作為推動精神健康的「Teen使」所面對的任務和挑戰，在營中學到的技巧對未來一年肩負推廣精神健康的工作很有幫助。

同學在來年透過策劃及舉辦各項有趣、有意義及充滿挑戰性的活動，除加深對精神健康的知識外，在個人成長上亦得益良多。

Workshops - Say 'No' to Drugs and Eating Disorder
The Drug Abuse workshop conducted by Dr. Ben Cheung, Senior Medical Officer, Substance Abuse Assessment Clinic of Kwai Chung Hospital, was held on 14th October, 2006. A veteran speaker of this topic, Dr. Cheung explained to students the classification of drugs and their side effects. By understanding the adverse impact derived from drug abuse, students had raised their awareness on why and how they should avoid from falling into the trap of drugs. Dr. Cheung emphasized that drugs abuse could create permanent damage to brain cells which could be irreversible. We should say 'No' to drugs in all circumstances.

The Eating Disorder workshop was held on 11th November with Ms Sonia Cheng, Clinical Psychologist of Kwai Chung Hospital as the speaker. Students were taught professional knowledge, e.g. index designed by World Health Organization to measure whether one is overweight or not, rather than believing in the misleading reports in media. They were also given guidance to look at relationship among appearance, body weight and personal image.

工作坊 - 「濫用藥物害己害人」及「飲食失調」
「濫藥無用」工作坊於十月十四日假葵涌醫院舉行，講者是這方面的專家 - 葵涌醫院藥物誤用評估中心主管高級醫生張建良。講座的目的是加深學生們對毒品的認識，令他們了解毒品對身心的負面影響，以及如何慎防墮入毒品的陷阱。張醫生指出濫用藥物會嚴重損害腦細胞，造成無法復完的影響。因此無論在任何情況下，都要「向藥物說不」！

「飲食失調」工作坊於十一月十一日舉行，由葵涌醫院心理學家鄭淑儀女士擔任講者。她提醒要判斷一個人是否過胖或過瘦，學生們不能單憑眼睛量度，並勸導他們不要盲目跟隨雜誌、傳媒的渲染影響。她指出世界衛生組織的體重指標能提供一個正確而科學的量度方法。在她教導下，學生們明白了如何看待外表、體重與自我形象的關係。

Kwai Chung Hospital Visit & Communications Skills Training
On 14th October, 2006, a communications skills training session was conducted by the medical professionals of the Kwai Chung Hospital to teach student advocates the skills to communicate with patients suffering from mental illness. With participation in interactive games, students learnt how to communicate with others through words, facial expressions and body language. After the 45-minute session, they found out that the rule of thumb in communications is to ensure a two-way communication, while listening with patience and respecting the others are also important.

After the training, students were given a tour to explore the Kwai Chung Hospital, a 1372-bedded psychiatric hospital managed by the Hospital Authority. Through the tour, students had a glimpse of the patients' daily life. They found that apart from general medical services, the hospital also organizes various recreational and community activities to inspire patients to develop different interests and guide them to make the best use of leisure time.

To serve this purpose, the Patient Resource and Social Centre is set up to provide patients with services such as enquiry, counselling, educational and recreational activities. This could help them reduce the daily pressure and foster their sense of responsibility and civic awareness, and hence facilitate them to build up interpersonal and social skills which are necessary for re-integrating into society. The centre also provides different facilities such as recreational facilities, audio and visual equipments, patients' cafe, library, mini theatre and barber shop, etc.

探訪葵涌醫院   參加溝通技巧講座
為使新加入「Teen使行動」的同學在參與義工服務時懂得如何與精神病患者融洽相處，葵涌醫院特別於二零零六年十月十四日安排了一個「溝通的技巧」講座。透過四十五分鐘的遊戲活動，教授「互相溝通」的技巧，如面對不同對象該選擇那種溝通及相處方式；如何利用聆聽、動作及說話來達至互相溝通等。講座帶出了一個重要訊息：「溝通是雙向的，而耐性及信任對方也是重要的原素」。

講座完畢後，同學參觀了葵涌醫院。葵涌醫院是醫院管理局轄下的精神科醫院，全院設有一千三百七十二張病床，住院服務以成人精神科為主。透過參觀，同學了解到該院提供的服務眾多，除了一般的醫療服務，更舉辦很多文娛康樂活動及社區活動，啟發病人的興趣，教導他們善用餘暇。

該院的「病人資源及交誼中心」亦是探訪的重點。這中心為病人提供諮詢、輔導、教育及文娛康樂活動，幫助病人建立人際關係及社交技巧，助他們學習日常生活的技能，培養工作習慣、興趣和嗜好。中心亦提供各項設施供病人享用，例如康樂活動用品及視聽器材、院友茶座、圖書館、迷你影院及髮廊等。活動除了減低他們日常生活之壓力，亦可培養他們的責任感及公民意識，助他們重新融入社會。
