HCTM Organises Gotong-Royong Perdana to Drive Sustainability and Quality Standards

Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz (HCTM), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) has reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining a clean, vibrant, and safe hospital environment through the Gotong-Royong Perdana 2026 Programme held at the Gallery, Chancellor Tuanku Ja’afar Medical Education Complex, HCTM.

In his opening speech, YBhg. Dato’ Dr. Azmi Baharudin, HCTM Director stated that the initiative extends beyond beautifying the hospital premises. He highlighted that the effort aligns directly with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), compliance with Malaysian Society for Quality in Health (MSQH) standards, and the implementation of 5S/QE practices.

He added that 5S/QE practices at HCTM are now strengthened by integrating modern elements such as artificial intelligence (AI), Lean Management approaches, and sustainable practices (SD/ESG). This strategic step is expected to boost operational efficiency, safeguard staff well-being, and reinforce the hospital’s standing as a premier healthcare institution.

“This initiative supports various international standards including ISO 9001, ISO 45001, ISO 50001, and ISO 14001, while ensuring a healthy and safe environment for patients, visitors, and hospital staff,” he said.

The programme was organised by the Integrated Facility Management Department, and parts of HCTM’s early preparations for the upcoming MSQH accreditation re-assessment scheduled for 2027. Targeted enhancements include deep cleaning of critical areas, disposal of unused documents and assets, and more systematic store management. Furthermore, hospital signage is being reviewed to ensure accurate and standardized information display for the convenience of patients and visitors.
