Swapped our healthcare attire for camo gear today! 🪖👕

The Hospital Dungun Psychiatry family took a much-needed break from the wards and headed over to Escapade Resort Dungun for an epic paintball showdown. ☀️🔫

Honestly, getting hit by those flying plastic bullets definitely stings—a few of us are definitely going to be sporting some colorful bruises tomorrow morning!
😅 But honestly, the laughs and the adrenaline made every single sting 100% worth it.

It was so awesome seeing everyone work together out on the field. Whether we were covering each other's backs, plotting sneaky tactics behind the bunkers, or just running for our lives, the teamwork was absolutely unreal. It’s amazing how dodging paintballs brings people together! 💪

So incredibly blessed to work with this bunch. We heal together, we stress together, and today, we safely shot at each other together! 😂

Love our Psych family. Here’s to more fun under the sun! ❤️🏥

Program yang julung kali diadakan ini dianjurkan oleh Jabatan Psikiatri dan Kesihatan Mental dengan kerjasama Unit Terapi Cara Kerja Hospital Dungun.

Apakah itu Program Sokongan Pekerjaan (Supported Employment)?
Di Malaysia, Sokongan Pekerjaan (SE) merupakan satu pendekatan berstruktur dan berasaskan bukti yang membantu individu dengan cabaran kesihatan mental untuk mendapatkan dan mengekalkan pekerjaan yang kompetitif di pasaran buruh terbuka. Ia bukan sekadar mencari kerja, tetapi memastikan pemadanan kerja yang tepat serta memberikan sokongan berterusan kepada kedua-dua pihak pekerja dan majikan. Objektif utama program ini adalah untuk mewujudkan laluan dan jaringan yang lebih baik di daerah Dungun, menghubungkan perkhidmatan psikiatri kami secara terus dengan bakal majikan demi memperkasakan klien psikiatri kami.

Sekalung Penghargaan🤝
Setinggi-tinggi penghargaan dan terima kasih yang tidak terhingga diucapkan kepada semua majikan yang telah meluangkan masa hadir ke program ini. Kesudian dan komitmen anda untuk bekerjasama dengan pihak hospital telah membuka pintu kepada persekitaran tempat kerja yang lebih inklusif, sekaligus membantu memecahkan stigma terhadap pesakit kesihatan mental dalam komuniti kita.

Topik-topik menarik yang telah dikupas oleh barisan penceramah hebat kami termasuklah:

Dr Izzu Muhammad – Memahami Pekerja dengan Cabaran Kesihatan Mental
Puan Nurul Asma' binti Mazelan – Peranan Terapi Carakerja dalam Sokongan Pekerjaan

This inaugural event was organized by the Department of Psychiatry and Mental Health in collaboration with the Occupational Therapy Unit.

What is the Supported Employment Program?
In Malaysia, Supported Employment (SE) is an evidence-based approach designed to help individuals with severe mental health challenges secure and sustain competitive employment in the open labor market. The core philosophy focuses on finding the right job match and providing continuous, tailored support to both the employee and the employer. This program aims to establish a strong foundation for SE within the Dungun district, directly linking our psychiatry services with prospective employers to create meaningful reintegration pathways for our psychiatry clients.

Our Deepest Gratitude🤝

🌟 Memperkasa Pemimpin Agama Sebagai 'Gatekeeper' Kesihatan Mental Komuniti 🌟

Alhamdulillah, Jabatan Psikiatri Hospital Dungun dengan kerjasama Pejabat Agama Islam Daerah Dungun telah merangka program "Meniti Ketenangan Jiwa Dalam Komuniti Islam, Perspektif Perubatan" bertempat di Dewan Pejabat Agama Daerah Dungun.
Program ini digerakkan dengan satu matlamat yang besar: memperkasakan imam-imam/bilal/AJK masjid di sekitar daerah ini. Kami menyedari bahawa pemimpin agama dan kerohanian memainkan peranan yang sangat penting sebagai *gatekeeper* atau barisan hadapan dalam komuniti. Apabila ahli kariah berhadapan dengan tekanan emosi atau kecelaruan jiwa, institusi masjid selalunya menjadi tempat rujukan pertama mereka.

🎯 Objektif Utama Program:
Meningkatkan Kesedaran: Memberi pengetahuan mendalam kepada pemimpin agama mengenai isu dan penyakit mental.
Menghapuskan Stigma: Mengurangkan stigma dan stereotaip negatif terhadap masalah kesihatan mental di kalangan pemimpin agama, dan seterusnya memupuk penerimaan dalam masyarakat setempat.
Membuka Laluan Rawatan: Memberi pendedahan tentang Perkhidmatan Psikiatri dan Kesihatan Mental yang wujud serta panduan laluan rujukan yang betul untuk rawatan pakar.

Intipati Sesi Perkongsian Ilmu:
Sesi ceramah telah dirangka secara holistik untuk memperlengkapkan para peserta dengan ilmu asas klinikal. Tumpuan diberikan kepada pemahaman komprehensif mengenai perkhidmatan psikiatri yang tersedia dan usaha berterusan untuk meruntuhkan tembok stigma masyarakat. Para peserta juga dibimbing untuk mengenal pasti penyakit-penyakit mental utama yang kerap berlaku pada masa kini, diakhiri dengan pendekatan praktikal mengenai teknik pengurusan stres yang bijak demi memelihara kesejahteraan minda.

Jalinan kerjasama yang erat antara institusi perubatan dan institusi agama di daerah Dungun ini adalah satu langkah progresif yang amat penting. Bersama-sama, kita mampu membina sebuah komuniti yang lebih cakna, berempati, dan menyokong kesejahteraan mental antara satu sama lain.

💜 A Day of Compassion and Connection:
Perhimpunan Penyayang 2026

🌟 Highlights of the Day:

* Words of Wisdom: Our Hospital Director, Dr. Mariani, officially opened the event with an insightful welcome speech. She emphasized the vital importance of Good Clinical Governance in ensuring we provide the highest standards of care to our community.

* Energy & Smiles: To keep our spirits high, we enjoyed the X-Break light activating activities—a perfect way to recharge! We also had a dedicated slot for 3S (Salam, Senyum, Sapa), reinforcing the culture of warmth and kindness that defines our hospital.

* Excitement to End: We wrapped up the day on a high note with a fun Lucky Draw session, sending many of our colleagues home with big smiles.
