Description

Taipei City Hospital comprises five general hospitals and two specialized campuses, forming a comprehensive healthcare network that encompasses emergency and critical care, maternal and child health, infectious disease management, psychiatric services, and integrated care. Through this structure, a “Seven-Star” collaborative system has been established across the Greater Taipei area, creating a mutually supportive and interconnected healthcare ecosystem.

In response to the clinical challenges arising from cross-campus, cross-specialty, and cross-setting practice, the Nursing Education and Research Development Committee upholds the philosophy of “co-learning, co-development, and co-creation” and promotes the clinical education strategy of “Seven-Star Leadership: Collaboratively Cultivating Nursing Talent.” This initiative integrates core nursing competencies across the seven campuses to ensure consistency in care quality. By linking academic institutions, clinical practice, and policy resources, the program transcends institutional boundaries and establishes a unified yet flexible talent development system. Guided by the principle that “integration is strength,” this approach fulfills the mission of resource integration, collaborative talent cultivation, and healthcare excellence, ensuring a stable, high-quality, and sustainable nursing workforce while continuously delivering diverse, continuous, and high-quality nursing services to the residents of the Greater Taipei area.
