1. About the service

Service area

Chung Cheng Gaoling long-term care transportation covers five of the six districts of Chiayi County: District 1 (Dongshi, Budai, Puzi, Yizhu), District 2 (Shuishang, Taibao, Lucao), District 3 (Xingang, Liujiao, Xikou), District 4 (Dalin, Minxiong, Alishan) and District 5 (Zhuqi, Meishan). That is 15 towns and townships in all, linking a full care network from the coast to the plains and the mountains. District 6 (Zhongpu, Fanlu, Dapu) is not served yet, and we will extend coverage step by step as our resources grow. Wherever older adults live in Chiayi County, we aim to offer transportation that is visible, easy to reach and affordable, so that every older adult in need can go out safely and come home with peace of mind.

Under the Ministry of Health and Welfare's long-term care rules, transportation services fall into two types, based on the destination and the budget they draw on:
