Jakarta, September 22, 2022 – Royal Progress Hospital offers one of its leading services in the field of sports orthopedics through two integrated healthcare facilities, namely the Royal Sports Medicine Centre (RSMC) and Royal Sports Performance Centre (RSPC). These facilities focus on preventing, treating, and supporting the recovery process for the general public, sports enthusiasts, and professional athletes. Royal Progress Hospital is committed to contributing to Indonesia’s efforts to “Recover Faster, Rise Stronger” by providing comprehensive healthcare services supported by professional medical personnel who are experts in their respective fields.
“As a healthcare institution, Royal Progress Hospital recognizes that we have an important role to play in supporting the government’s key priorities of ‘Recover Faster’ and ‘Rise Stronger,’ so that Indonesia is prepared to face global challenges and is able to compete again internationally, while continuing to grow and transform amid the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic over the past several years,” said dr. Ivan Setiadarma, President Director of Royal Progress Hospital.
For more than 30 years, Royal Progress Hospital has been part of the Indonesian community, particularly in the Greater Jakarta area, providing healthcare services needed by the community, including services focused on sports health. Physical health assessments are important to undergo before starting a fitness program. In addition to contributing to overall health, such assessments can also help prevent potential injuries. One way to do this is through an initial check-up, such as a fitness test covering cardiovascular exercise, strength training, and flexibility.
For this reason, Royal Progress Hospital established the Royal Sports Medicine Centre (RSMC) and Royal Sports Performance Centre (RSPC) to provide healthcare services for athletes and sports enthusiasts, ranging from prevention and screening to the treatment of sports injuries, as well as fitness and motivation enhancement, enabling them to return to their sporting goals. This initiative also reflects Royal Progress Hospital’s commitment to addressing challenges and helping Indonesia rise stronger and “Together, Creating Champions” in the sports sector.
“RSMC and RSPC have been trusted as official healthcare partners for national sports federations and have performed medical and surgical procedures and provided physiotherapy support to thousands of patients. During National Sports Day, which takes place in September, we also serve as healthcare partners at various national sporting events by providing medical personnel, as a manifestation of our commitment to supporting athletes and sports enthusiasts in achieving their optimal potential,” said dr. Panudju Djojoprajitno, General Manager of Royal Progress Hospital.
In its role, the Royal Sports Medicine Centre (RSMC) provides medical services designed for sports enthusiasts and athletes to accurately diagnose injuries and determine the appropriate treatment plan for each patient. This ultimately supports an optimal recovery and healing process under the direct care of Orthopedic and Traumatology Specialists.
“Sports injuries are a very crucial concern for both professional athletes and sports enthusiasts. Therefore, everyone involved in sports should consult with a specialist who is an expert in the field to understand the appropriate treatment and recovery process. This enables doctors to provide an accurate diagnosis and support the healing process so that patients can return to their sporting activities. One of the leading treatment methods currently available is arthroscopy, which can be used to detect, diagnose, and treat various joint problems,” explained dr. Bobby Nelwan SpOT (K), Orthopedic and Traumatology Specialist and Sports Injury Consultant at the Royal Sports Medicine Centre, located at Royal Progress Hospital.
Meanwhile, the Royal Sports Performance Centre (RSPC) plays a role in supporting the recovery process and maximizing the performance of athletes and sports enthusiasts holistically through comprehensive services. These services are provided directly and in an integrated manner by Sports Medicine Specialists (SpKO), Sports Psychologists, Physical Therapists, Nutritionists, Acupuncture Specialists, and Sports Physiotherapists.
dr. Sophia Hage SpKO of the Royal Sports Performance Centre added, “The Royal Sports Performance Centre is committed to supporting the recovery and performance enhancement of athletes and sports enthusiasts through a series of services tailored to their sporting goals. These include physiotherapy programs, sports massage, fitness performance enhancement through various sport-specific fitness tests, nutritional consultations for athletes to help them maintain peak condition, and performance enhancement through optimal psychological well-being, enabling patients to regain the confidence and readiness to become champions. All activities are directly supervised by professional medical personnel to help improve performance effectively and efficiently.”
“This is a tangible manifestation of Royal Progress Hospital’s commitment to encouraging the sports sector to rise stronger and achieve optimal performance. Moreover, the government is currently developing the National Sports Grand Design (DBON), which will involve Sports Medicine Specialists, Sports Psychologists, Sports Therapists, and Sports Physiotherapists. RSPC and RSMC are ready to contribute to ‘Together, Creating Champions’ for the advancement of Indonesian sports achievements,” concluded dr. Panudju Djojoprajitno, General Manager of Royal Progress Hospital.
