Happier Caregivers, Healthier Seniors

About Happier Caregivers, Healthier Seniors

The Cornerstone of Long-Term Care
Begins with the Happiness of the Caregiver

As of September 2025, Taiwan is home to more than 204,882 at-home migrant caregivers.

We believe that when caregivers receive the right support,

they can not only provide consistent, high-quality care, but more importantly,

this allows families to enjoy a better quality of life.

The Happier Caregivers, Healthier Seniors (HCHS) Project

is a partnership between DBS Foundation and The Garden of Hope Foundation,

which provides mental health support services for migrant workers through the application of

AI technology and collaboration with expert groups.

Together, we are building a cross-cultural care ecosystem

that promotes collective care between seniors, caregivers, and families. 

​ 

Technology to guard the heart of every caregiver.

Tenderness to rebuild the stable foundation of long-term care.

Hiring Migrant Workers Q&A
Q1: How to handle conflicts arising from cultural differences? Conflict is never the end of a problem; it is merely a signal of unseen needs. When facing cultural differences, directly clashing will only erode mutual trust. 1. Pause and Recognize the Need: When a conflict occurs, please take a pause and avoid instant accusation or confrontation. Ask yourself: "What’s the real need behind not being met?" The apparent cause of the conflict may be about different habits, but the deeper issue...
