The population aged 65 years and older has been growing rapidly. As of the end of March 2018, Taiwan officially became an aged society and, by 2026, the population aged 65 and over is expected to reach 21%, consequently making Taiwan a "super-aged" society. In light of this trend, there’s greater urgency to establish a sound long- term care system, to develop human resource and facilities, and to ensure service quality. Consequently, the Ministry began its implementation of the MOHW’s National Ten-Year Long-Term Plan Care 2.0 (hereafter referred to as "Long-Term Care Plan 2.0) from January 2017 to promote an integrated Community Care Service Network as a response to the long- term care needs of Taiwan’s aging population. The MOHW has been working to integrate different services into the community-based integrated care service network based on the basic concept of cultivating community integrated service center ("A"), combined service center ("B"), and widely establishing street long-term care stations around the blocks ("C") throughout Taiwan. All municipalities have been encouraged to work with long-term care service providers, medical care, nursing institutions and nonprofit organizations. The Long-Term Care Hotline "1966" offers efficient assistance for those seeking for long-term care services. The care managers will assess long-term care needs of people in home visits and link people with resources to meet their further needs. In 2021 Long-Term Care 2.0 served 388,866 people. Since Long-Term Care 2.0 was launched, there has been a big increase in service resources and personnel. In the future, the MOHW will continue to put emphasis on setting up residential institutions as well as expanding home-based and community-based long-term care resources and strengthening long-term care manpower. The following important mission of Long-Term Care 2.0 is to enhance the guidance and
