• Patients with degenerative joint diseases, fractures, or other musculoskeletal disorders.

• Patients undergoing hip or knee joint replacement surgery, with the goal of restoring function and improving quality of life.

Our team is positioned as a benchmark joint reconstruction center in the Lanyang region, providing comprehensive and integrated joint care services that encompass joint replacement surgery, minimally invasive procedures, postoperative rehabilitation, and long-term follow-up.

The team continuously adopts advanced minimally invasive surgical techniques, computer-assisted navigation systems, and the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) care model. Through comprehensive preoperative assessment, precise intraoperative anesthesia management, and effective postoperative pain control and nutritional support, we aim to enhance surgical quality and optimize patient outcomes.

By integrating multidisciplinary expertise, we deliver patient-centered, holistic care to improve surgical precision, reduce postoperative complications, and shorten length of hospital stay, thereby further enhancing postoperative quality of life.

Postoperative rehabilitation is guided by a multidisciplinary team that develops individualized training programs to support safe restoration of mobility and prolong the longevity of joint prostheses.

In alignment with the hospital’s mission of advancing medical excellence, promoting health, and caring for the community, our team is committed to becoming a leading benchmark institution for joint replacement care in Eastern Taiwan.

• Redesign of inpatient wards to establish an innovative care model in which postoperative functional recovery begins immediately, the ward serves as a rehabilitation environment, and daily care becomes an opportunity for functional training.

• Implementation of comprehensive, continuous patient-centered care through the integration of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) pathway, providing coordinated and integrated services across the perioperative period.

• Initiation of immediate postoperative rehabilitation and ambulation within 24 hours, enabling patients to rapidly regain daily functional abilities, effectively reducing postoperative complications, shortening length of hospital stay, and ultimately improving postoperative quality of life and overall care outcomes.

• A 59.4% increase in joint replacement surgery volume, reflecting strong public trust and service demand.

• Full implementation of standardized care protocols, including Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) and the Surgical Site Infection (SSI) Bundle.

• A stable interdisciplinary communication framework, enabling simultaneous growth in case volume and quality of care.
