In October 2008, Chin-Lon Lin was promoted to
Chief Executive Officer of the Tzu Chi Medical Mission and I was
designated to take over the duty. I cautiously lead the hospital
while facing the operational hardship. I encourage all
colleagues to be devoted to their jobs and continuously pursue
better service.
The principle of business is to pursue
profit, however the essence of medicine is to change the lives.
We care about patients, and sincerely expect every doctor and
nurse would exercises professional skills with the volunteer
spirit in mind. We further wish everyone is the "luminary" of
Tzu Chi.
In the future, I proposed three goals :
"Quality, Localization, and Creativity." I hope all of us
together can make efforts to promote health of residents in
Chiayi and Yunlin county. Furthermore, we can become a leading
hospital in Taiwan, share our outstanding medical achievements
and medical humanities to the world, and practice the teaching
by Master Cheng Yen to reach out to the suffering.
Enhancing Healthcare Quality of Tzu Chi
We should
learn from Tzu Chi volunteers for they always put patients and
their families in the first place. Their concerns are with
profundity, breadth and depth. In this year of 2009, our goal is
to holds more than 120 community health promotion programs,
encouraging medical professionals go into the community to share
health knowledge. Health promotion is not just a slogan but a
practice. As Master Cheng Yen said, “ Just do it”. So we not
only care for our patients, but also serve more people.
Grassroots Healthcare
The
grassroots healthcare is our characteristic and makes us
different from others. Dalin Tzu Chi Hospital was built to serve
the region where the healthcare is a lack. Residents have
limited access to health care. Master Cheng Yen feel their
suffering and decide to build a hospital providing patients
quality care, with a home-like tender touch and warmth. From
this, Taiwan's fundamental values of caring and love were shown.
Creative Healthcare
To disseminate health knowledge to the communities, we
create various edutainments in the way the public can understand
and find interesting. These educational health promotion media
produced in entertainment formats not only educate people but
also improve the patient-physician relationship.
