In 2010, a newly-created medical fee was established for "Cancer Patient Rehabilitation." We acquired the facility criteria for cancer rehabilitation in August 2011. In December 2005, we started a preventive rehabilitation program to provide comprehensive respiratory physical therapy. Maintenance rehabilitation, palliative rehabilitation and home visiting rehabilitation have been increasing recently. All our staff hope to provide safer, improved skills cancer medical care for all patients by using better rehabilitation skills.
