The Hospital also offers Community Nursing Service and Community Psychiatric Nursing Service.

The therapeutic garden and health track for convalescent patients has been built. The facility is specially designed to enable patients to break away from the confines of the wards and indoor gymnasium, and to receive outdoor rehabilitation treatment in a more spacious and open garden, which will also help them to re-integrate into the community. Phase III of the Garden has been established. It is equipped with a host of simulated transport facilities like KCR and MTR train compartments, taxi and minibus to train patients using public transports despite their physical impairment. Patients are also encouraged to use the facilities after discharge.
