This agreement was pursued to establish a foundation for cooperation in building a regionally tailored integrated care system.

With this selection, Pocheon City plans to strengthen residential care services so that seniors and people with disabilities can continue to live healthy and stable lives in their own homes.

The city is promoting the project "Breathing Together in Pocheon: Residential Safety Homecare," with a focus on creating hygienic and safe living environments as part of its integrated medical and care services. In particular, Pocheon City aims to establish a sustainable integrated care model by strengthening public-private partnerships so that essential services for each beneficiary are organically connected.

A city official stated, "Our selection for this public project will serve as a turning point to advance Pocheon's integrated care system," adding, "We will do our best to create a hygienic and safe residential environment where seniors and people with disabilities can live healthily, centering on the Residential Safety Homecare project."

Meanwhile, since March, Pocheon City has been actively building its integrated medical and care delivery system, continuously strengthening cooperation with medical institutions, care-related organizations, and specialized institutions.

The integrated medical and care project provides comprehensive medical and care services for seniors and people under 65 with severe physical or brain disabilities. For more information, residents can contact the Community Integrated Care Team in the Pocheon City Welfare Policy Division, any of the 14 town and township administrative welfare centers, the public health center, or the National Health Insurance Service Pocheon Branch.
