Seoul St. Mary's Hospital Director Yoon Seung-gyu's external environment will be overcome and used as an opportunity for growth
Jan 01, 2025
Yoon Seung-gyu, head of the Catholic University of Korea's Seoul St. Mary's Hospital, said in his New Year's address, `Let's quickly and actively respond to the rapidly changing external environment and use it as a valuable opportunity for growth.'
"This year will be a year in which the medical community as a whole is strongly required for change and innovation," Yoon said, stressing that "a lot of effort is needed to establish itself as a specialist-centered hospital for severe and rare and incurable diseases."
In addition, he added that let's overcome difficulties with 'challenge and growth' following the school corporation's management policy of 'Expectation and Courage'.
Thank you very much for doing your best to help our hospital fulfill its original mission to care for patients in a medical environment that has changed more rapidly than any other year, and I applaud your passion and hard work over the past year.
I believe it was thanks to the dedication of faculty and staff and love for patients that they were able to achieve meaningful results in 10 consecutive years of medical quality evaluation and ranked first in the metropolitan area of high-level general hospitals in patient experience evaluation despite growing management uncertainties.
But given the external environment where policy uncertainty is still significant, this is expected to be a year where the healthcare community as a whole is strongly called for change and innovation. With the participation in the restructuring pilot project of a high-level general hospital, it is necessary to focus more on treating severe and rare incurable diseases along with the reduction of general beds, and it is expected that a lot of effort will be made to establish itself as a specialist-centered hospital in response to the current gap in major.
In an environment like this where external environments and policies are rapidly changing, I think the way to reduce external shocks is to respond quickly and actively internally. Although it will be a year that requires a lot of things both internally and externally, I should believe that this process is a valuable opportunity for the growth of both our hospital and faculty, just like the management policy of the school corporation called 'Expectation and Courage' and 'Challenge and Growth'.
Dear faculty and staff, no matter what difficulties and policy changes, our mission to stand by patients and share their pain and share them remains unchanged. Like our senior faculty members who have always done their best to protect life by the patient despite the war and numerous political upheavals, let's work together to create Seoul St. Mary's Hospital that gives hope to many people with a single heart in the new year.
Once again, I deeply appreciate the hard work of all the faculty and staff, and I wish you and your family full of blessings in the new year.
