| Dr Mok Yee Hui Senior Consultant, KK Women's & Children's Hospital
Dr Mok Yee Hui is a senior consultant pediatric intensivist with the children’s intensive care unit (ICU) at KKH and has interests in pediatric resuscitation, use of simulation in healthcare, narrative medicine and reflective practice in healthcare. She graduated from National University of Singapore in 2000, obtained her Masters in Paediatrics and Child Health in 2005 and completed advanced specialist training in Paediatric Medicine in 2008. As a paediatric intensivist, she understands that therapeutic relationships with families occur when relationships are built on trust, empathy and compassion. Empathy is positively reinforced when patients are viewed as people with lives and stories to tell, not just diseases to treat or problems to solve. This led to her current interest in narrative medicine and reflective practice to augment the humanistic values of our profession. As clinical head of Children’s ICU, she advocates for patient and family-centred care as a core value for the Unit, leading to positive changes in interactions with patients and families. She is currently undertaking a Certificate in Professional Studies in Narrative Medicine from Columbia University and hopes to incorporate elements of narrative medicine into medical education and clinical practice.
