Department of Occupational Medicine

Occupational medicine is a major branch of modern community medicine. Since new Occupational Safety and Health Law was implemented in July 2014, occupational medical services demand has risen greatly in Taiwan.

The Department of Occupational Medicine aims to provide high-quality teaching, research and medical services with the support of a university hospital. We train students in occupational medicine, family medicine, and preventive medicine with an emphasis on comprehensive patient care.

Our services include on-site workplace visits, basic workplace health services (BOHS), occupational disease prevention counseling, occupation-related burn out prevention, psychological stress management, maternal protection program, and musculoskeletal disease prevention.
