〔記者王姝琇/台南報導〕因應「長照3.0」政策正式上路,市府升級照護能量導入「智慧科技輔具」,為提升服務可近性及擴充租賃服務量能,同步檢討相關特約及管理機制,積極邀請符合資格的輔具租賃服務單位投入服務,讓市民未來能有更多元、便利的輔具選擇。

衛生局局長李翠鳳指出,南市全市6處照顧管理分站及71處的社區整體照顧服務中心,提供在地化、即時性的專業諮詢。透過長照3.0的資源挹注,不僅要協助失能者獲得妥適照顧,更要成為照顧者最堅強的後盾,有效緩解照顧負荷,全面提升家庭生活品質。

面對高齡化社會,民眾對輔具需求日益多元。傳統「一次性購置」模式不僅負擔沉重,更常因個案身體狀況變化而導致輔具閒置浪費。南市府積極推動輔具租賃模式,民眾可依實際需求彈性租用居家照顧床、氣墊床及輪椅等設備,此舉不僅大幅降低初期經濟門檻,更能隨著照顧情境調整設備規格,讓有限的資源運用更精準、更具效益。

Colorectal cancer risk reduced by 58% after appendectomy

Research published at the 2026 Annual Clinical Meeting of the American College of Surgeons showed that patients with acute appendicitis who underwent appendectomy had a 58% lower relative risk of subsequent colorectal cancer than those who received antibiotic treatment alone. The study analyzed data from more than 30,000 patients and found that the subsequent cancer rate was 0.7% in the surgery group and 1.7% in the antibiotic group. The researchers pointed out that possible mechanisms include pathological examination to detect underlying lesions, removal of inflamed tissue, and effects on intestinal flora and immune environment, but emphasized that the results do not mean that all patients with appendicitis should choose surgery to prevent cancer.

Travel to Korea for free medical aesthetics. Experts warn that invasive treatments are risky

With the convenient travel between Taiwan and South Korea, independent travel to South Korea for medical beauty treatments has become popular, and the low prices have attracted many beauty lovers. However, experts point out that invasive treatments such as injections, thread embedding, and surgeries involve issues such as material sources, dosages, and follow-up care. It is also difficult to return to the clinic immediately for medical treatment after seeking medical treatment overseas. The lack of after-sales service increases the risk. It is recommended that the public fully understand the risks and choose the type of treatment carefully.
