Over the past 30 years in Taiwan, the NCF has granted financial assistance to 30,000 craniofacial people coming from low economic status, to help them get medical treatment and go to school without worries. Meanwhile,we provide 60,000 cases services and 115,000 programs services to help craniofacial people receive qualified craniofacial medical care thus regain confidence to accept physical defects and restore their lives.
Healing the mental scars is as important as treating physical scars
Treatmentsforpeoplewithcraniofacialdeformitiesarenotonlytocurephysicaldefects but also to heal psychological trauma. In the 17-year follow-up treatment, people with cleft lip and palate must receive multiple surgical treatments, including cleft lip and palate repair, cleft lip rhinoplasty surgery, bone grafting as well as require complex long-term orthodontic, otolaryngology treatment and speech therapy. Fortunately, the craniofacial medical team at the Chang Gung Hospital is worldwide well known. Cleft persons'physicaldefectscanbecuredwiththeirhigh-qualitymedicalcare.
