Ms Jessica Ng
Jessica is a locally trained Physiotherapist with 19 years of clinical, administrative and training experience, holding full registration with the Allied Health Professions Council (AHPC). Currently, when she is not training Therapist Assistants as a Lecturer in HMI, she is maintaining her clinical skills at St. John-St. Margaret’s Nursing Home and Singapore Sports Medicine Centre.
She has always been interested in the exchange of knowledge. As an ACTA-certified trainer, she prefers to conduct her lessons in practical ways that make the content relevant and applicable for the learners. As individuals, we need to know what is within our personal control and when to seek professional treatment so as not to take unnecessary risks. Sports injury prevention and management can contribute significantly to our physical and mental well-being, the knowledge of which can influence beyond the individual and into their social groups. Over these 3 days, Jessica hopes to encourage mutual learning, impart clinical best practices and empower learners to better sports injury prevention and management.
