Today we celebrated the inaugural intake of the Healthcare Diploma at Kingston International College—a programme we are proud to help shape together.
The next era of healthcare will not be defined by bigger hospitals or more procedures. It will be defined by healthier communities. It is a future where every individual has a trusted primary care team that knows them well, and where the relationship between the patient, the health coach, and the primary care doctor becomes the cornerstone of lifelong health. Together, they move beyond treating illness to building health—supported by AI and digital technologies that transform data into personalised insights, and by multidisciplinary teams working seamlessly to prevent disease, detect problems early, and empower healthier choices every day.
Success will no longer be measured solely by years added to life, but by healthy years added to life. That is the future we are building—one where prevention is the first line of care, healthspan matters as much as lifespan, and healthcare becomes something that happens every day, not only when someone falls ill.
今天，我们共同庆祝了 Kingston International College 医疗保健文凭课程的首届开班。这是一个我们深感自豪、共同参与打造的重要项目。
医疗保健的新时代，将不再由更大的医院或更多的医疗程序来定义，而是由更健康的社区来定义。
未来，每一位居民都将拥有一支真正了解他们的基层医疗团队，而病人、健康教练（Health Coach）与基层医疗医生（Primary Care Doctor）之间的伙伴关系，将成为终身健康管理的核心。
我们将不再只是治疗疾病，而是共同建设健康。这将结合人工智能（AI）与数码科技，把健康数据转化为个人化的健康洞察；并透过多学科团队的紧密协作，实现疾病预防、早期发现问题，以及每天帮助人们做出更健康的生活选择。
未来，医疗成功的标准，也不再只是延长寿命（Lifespan），更重要的是增加健康寿命（Healthspan）——让人们活得更健康、更有活力，而不仅仅是活得更久。
这正是我们正在共同打造的未来：
预防医学成为医疗照护的第一道防线；
健康寿命与寿命同样重要；
医疗照护融入日常生活，而不是等到生病后才开始。
这，就是我们共同努力建设的未来。
