In Hong Kong, the St. John Ambulance Association was established in 1884, followed by
the Ambulance Brigade in 1916 and the Council in 1949. Adhering to its motto, "For the
Service of Mankind", the organization is dedicated to providing First Aid and ambulance

First Aid and Home Nursing for the general public.
