In recognition of the invaluable contributions of media professionals as the backbone of the nation’s information landscape, Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz (HCTM), in collaboration with the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE), organised the Stay Healthy #RakanMediaKPT Programme in conjunction with National Journalists’ Day (HAWANA) 2026.

The programme commenced at 10.00 a.m. at the East Lobby of Astro Bukit Jalil. The presence of HCTM’s medical team in engaging directly with media practitioners reflected the strong commitment of government agencies to promoting community health and well-being through practical initiatives. More than a gesture of appreciation, the programme served as an important platform to raise health awareness among media professionals, who often work under demanding schedules and high-pressure environments.

The health screening programme received an overwhelming response, with 150 Astro employees taking advantage of the services provided. Participants first underwent basic health assessments, including blood pressure measurement, Body Mass Index (BMI) evaluation, cholesterol testing, and blood glucose screening. These initial examinations served as important baseline indicators of each participant’s overall health before they proceeded to more specialised assessments.

What made this programme particularly distinctive was its comprehensive range of specialised health screenings. Following an initial consultation with healthcare professionals, participants were able to visit dedicated screening counters for lung, skin, and kidney health, as well as voice box examinations—an especially important service for broadcasters, presenters, and journalists who rely heavily on their voices in their profession. This holistic approach enabled media personnel to detect early signs of chronic diseases or other health conditions that could potentially affect their well-being and work performance.

Overall, the Stay Healthy #RakanMediaKPT 2026 Programme successfully achieved its objective of promoting a healthy workplace culture. The commitment demonstrated by HCTM and MOHE is expected to continue through future initiatives, ensuring that the nation’s often-unsung media professionals remain in optimal health as they carry out their vital role of delivering accurate and timely information to the public.

Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz (HCTM) melakar sejarah apabila Kafe Lobi Pelawat HCTM diiktiraf sebagai Zon BeSS (Bersih dan Selamat) yang pertama bagi Hospital Pengajar Universiti di negara ini.

Pengiktirafan tersebut diberikan dalam Majlis Pengiktirafan Zon BeSS dan Wacana Keselamatan & Kualiti Makanan yang berlangsung di Sukmaria HCTM, petang tadi.

Majlis anjuran Unit Kesihatan Awam HCTM dengan kerjasama Unit Keselamatan dan Kualiti Makanan Pejabat Kesihatan Cheras, Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM) itu diadakan bagi meraikan pencapaian signifikan hospital berkenaan dalam aspek kualiti hidangan.

Pengarah HCTM, Dato’ Dr. Azmi Baharudin berkata, keselamatan makanan merupakan aspek paling kritikal dalam sesebuah fasiliti kesihatan, memandangkan hospital pengajar dan pusat rujukan tersebut menerima ribuan pengunjung setiap hari.

“HCTM sentiasa komited untuk memastikan setiap hidangan yang disediakan kepada warga hospital, pelawat dan pelanggan adalah selamat, bersih dan berkualiti.
“Lebih membanggakan, kejayaan ini terhasil daripada usaha kolektif kesemua 12 premis makanan yang beroperasi di Kafe Lobi Pelawat HCTM. Saya percaya pencapaian ini menjadi pemangkin untuk terus memperkukuh budaya keselamatan makanan di hospital ini,” katanya.

Pengiktirafan rasmi itu telah disempurnakan oleh Timbalan Pengarah Kesihatan Negeri (Keselamatan & Kualiti Makanan), Jabatan Kesihatan Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur & Putrajaya, Encik Shanmugam a/l Supramaniam.

Beliau menyerahkan pensijilan BeSS kepada semua 12 premis makanan di dalam zon tersebut yang berjaya memenuhi piawaian kebersihan dan keselamatan makanan yang ketat seperti yang ditetapkan oleh KKM.

Menurut Shanmugam, pemilihan Medan Selera Lobi Pelawat HCTM sebagai Zon BeSS merupakan satu langkah yang amat strategik dan signifikan.
“Sebagai sebuah institusi kesihatan yang menjadi tumpuan ribuan pesakit, pelawat serta warga kerja setiap hari, hospital sewajarnya menjadi contoh terbaik dalam mempromosikan persekitaran makanan yang bersih, selamat dan berkualiti,” jelas beliau.

Sehingga kini, sebanyak 163 premis makanan di Kuala Lumpur dan Putrajaya telah mendapat pengiktirafan BeSS bagi tahun 2026. Angka tersebut mencerminkan peningkatan kesedaran dan komitmen industri makanan dalam mengutamakan keselamatan makanan sebagai satu budaya kerja yang lestari di ibu negara.
