Through this agreement, both parties plan to minimize care gaps and lay the foundation for community care that connects patients from hospital discharge to home and local communities by expanding support for caregiving credits, training professional caregivers, and providing customized care solutions for discharged patients.

CareDoc operates the 'Caregiving Credit' system, which offers free caregiving services for elderly individuals living alone who require care and for young caregivers in need of rest. As part of its social contribution activities, CareDoc introduced the caregiving credit system this year and plans to gradually expand the support scale to address care blind spots. Applications can be made through the Social Work Office at Gangbuk Samsung Hospital. Additionally, in collaboration with Gangbuk Samsung Hospital's professional medical staff, CareDoc jointly develops and operates practical training courses to help freelance caregivers adapt to caregiving jobs.

To promote the rapid recovery of discharged patients and minimize care gaps, they will also cooperate on customized community care counseling services. CareDoc regularly operates a senior care counseling pop-up booth within Gangbuk Samsung Hospital, providing various information about post-discharge daily life care to patients scheduled for discharge and their caregivers.

Park Jaebyeong, CEO of CareDoc, said, "We signed this business agreement with Gangbuk Samsung Hospital to share the need for training professional caregiving personnel and addressing care blind spots." He added, "Based on CareDoc’s corporate vision of creating a care culture that respects seniors’ healthy lives, we will continue to actively build a senior care ecosystem encompassing hospitals, homes, and communities, leading efforts to minimize care gaps."
