Located in Lantian Economic Development Zone, Longwen District, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province, Zhangzhou Yuehui Yuezi Center has an elegant, simple and atmospheric environment. From the design and construction of the Confinement Center, facilities allocation to personnel training and operation management, Zhang Suhui from Taichung has poured a lot of effort.
In 2019, Zhang Suhui, as a high-level talent from Taiwan introduced by Fujian Province, crossed the sea to Zhangzhou. Deeply rooted in the cross-strait confinement industry, she participated in the preparation and operation of the Yue Yue Hui Yue Center, and served as the chief operating officer of the Yue Yue Hui Yue Zi Center in Zhangzhou.
"Taiwan's confinement industry developed relatively early, and the entire management system is relatively mature." Zhang Suhui has just worked in taiwan's first confinement center and has been engaged in maternal and child care and confinement industry for more than 20 years.
It is precisely because she is very optimistic about the southern Fujian confinement market, Zhang Suhui firmly chose to cross the sea to Zhangzhou for development. "Zhangzhou, as a city in southern Fujian, has a long tradition of confinement; with the development of the times, the new generation of mothers have become more and more urgent for healthy confinement and scientific parenting, and the local market is still in its infancy in the professional confinement institutions, so Zhangzhou's confinement industry has a lot of market space."
"The traditional habit of confinement in Zhangzhou is almost exactly the same as in Taiwan." Zhang Suhui said that thanks to the consistent humanistic customs and eating habits, many experiences and practices in the development of Taiwan's confinement industry are also very suitable for promotion in the Zhangzhou market.
Nowadays, Zhang Suhui routinely inspects the kitchen, baby room, confinement room and other areas every day to understand the actual needs of bao moms, regularly carry out training for nursing staff, and guide them hand in hand.
Benefiting from a series of measures to benefit Taiwan compatriots on the mainland, Zhang Suhui told reporters that after she and the Taiwanese employees in the center came to Zhangzhou, they quickly solved the practical problems encountered in "eating, drinking, living and traveling" and quickly integrated into the "local area".
For the future of Zhangzhou confinement industry, Zhang Suhui is full of confidence. She said that she hopes to bring more professional talents to Zhangzhou and build the Yuezi Center into a platform for cultural service exchanges between Fujian and Taiwan.
