TTY Chairman Lin Chuan formed the culture of the Company with the slogan “Be a Civilized Person”. Along with the aim to realize UN’s 17 SDG goals, TTY employees initiated “Boshiyuan”, a charity club to give without borders, to remember what we receive and to help the less privileged. “Boshiyuan” sets the starting point of the TTY public welfare value, gathers colleagues to offer care to society, and participates in activities that promote a healthy environment. These actions grow little by little into the daily lives of people and become part of TTY culture, intending to be there with and for the world.
Hospice Care
To promote hospice care within Taiwan, TTY initiated the hospice care with China Medical University Hospital. At CMUH, hospice daycare is a service targeting palliative care and medical treatment from home. Carried out by hospice home nursing staff, the palliative and medical treatment provides information for family members and alleviates the pressure in caregivers.
For the 2 years of the pandemic, our love and care for the community continued. Between 2021 and 2022, we implemented several plans, resulting in our ability to provide hospice care services to 148 patients in their own homes by 2023. Over the past 3 years, we have served a total of 969 patients and covered the costs that would normally be the responsibility of the families receiving hospice services. With emotional support, symptom relief, and financial assistance, we try to alleviate some of the burden patients and their families through good corporate effort.
