💙Integrated Care for Healing
Mrs. Chai (name changed for privacy) was admitted to UTAR Hospital’s Medical Centre after showing signs of a right pontine ischemic stroke. In addition to this condition, she also faced several other health challenges.
Upon admission, Mrs. Chai was completely unable to move her upper and lower limbs,
had very weak muscle strength, and struggled to sit upright due to poor balance.
Recognizing her condition, the clinical team designed a comprehensive rehabilitation
plan, combining Acupuncture therapy at the T&CM Centre with physiotherapy at the
Medical Centre. Both her Chinese medicine practitioner and medical doctor closely
monitored her progress, ensuring she received well-rounded care.
Mdm Chai and her husband have no children, but she receives support from her siblings and a nephew, who is especially close to her. Due to her husband’s inability to care for her at home, he requested that she remained in the hospital until she regained some mobility and independence.
After more than four months of intensive treatment, Mrs. Chai showed remarkable
improvement. Upon discharge, her muscle strength in the left upper and lower limbs had improved significantly. She was now able to walk steadily with the aid of a walking frame and even take short steps without assistance.
Since November 2024, the Welfare Fund has supported a portion of her medical expenses, helping to ease the financial burden on her family. On January 2, 2025, she was officially discharged, leaving the hospital with hope for continued recovery.
Mrs. Chai’s story highlights how integrated medical care—combining modern physiotherapy with traditional Chinese acupuncture and medicine—along with welfare support, plays a vital role in helping patients regain their independence after life-altering health conditions.
