【#WeArePolyU】When did you find your calling in medical and humanitarian relief work?
“In my final year at PolyU, my classmates and I provided healthcare education services in a rural village in the Chinese mainland under the University’s Service-Learning programme. This experience helped me understand that no matter how scarce resources are, I can still bring quality health care services to people in need.” Cheuk-pong joined @Doctors Without Borders/ Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) as an expatriate nurse in 2013 and has committed to providing nursing care to people affected by war and infectious diseases, as well as communities with limited healthcare resources. He has also participated in field missions delivering emergency aid in countries including Pakistan, West Africa and Yemen, with a firm belief that nursing care has no boundaries.
