Enriching Patient’s Lives Through Innovative Homecare Service

Long wait times and overcrowded hospitals have been persistent issues in the Thai healthcare system, impacting both patients and their caregivers and leading to additional hidden costs that add to the financial burden.

Financial and logistical hurdles, such as transportation expenses and time spent waiting for medical attention, exacerbate the overall strain on individuals seeking medical care. This highlights the urgent need for innovative solutions to improve the efficiency and accessibility of healthcare services.

To address these challenges, DKSH has partnered with Thammasat University Hospital (TUH) to introduce Home Pulse, an innovative homecare service that provides at-home specimen collection and safe transportation of collected specimens to the hospital for testing. TUH serves more than 1.3 million outpatients and over 40,000 inpatients annually.

This service enhances convenience for patients by eliminating the need to arrive at the hospital two to four hours before their appointments for sample collection and testing. Instead, patients can schedule these services from the comfort of their homes three to five days before their hospital appointments, experiencing a more streamlined healthcare journey.

The partnership between DKSH Thailand and TUH is revitalizing healthcare delivery by offering convenient homecare services that prioritize patients. This collaboration not only enhances patient well-being but also addresses the challenge of reducing hospital overcrowding.

As a result, healthcare providers will have more time for patients with complex care needs, while hidden costs such as transportation expenses, loss of daily income, and waiting times will be minimized.

At DKSH, our purpose is to enrich people’s lives. We do so by providing reliable access to high-quality and responsible products and services, creating sustainable value for our partners, and contributing to raising the quality of life in the communities we operate in by generating jobs, perspectives, and opportunities for people’s development and growth.
