The Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation was established on October 31, 1990. It was developed based on the scale of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Taichung Veterans General Hospital and considering the medical population distribution in the Kaohsiung-Pingtung area and the standards for a medical center.
The department provides services in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, including outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation. It also offers specialized services such as electromyography, soft tissue ultrasound, cardiopulmonary rehabilitation function tests, and swallowing function tests.
