Wimut Hospital Adjusts Business Plans to Meet Demand for Healthcare in Aging Society
Wimut Hospital, a trusted healthcare platform in Thailand, is launching a giant campaign called “ViMUT Healthy 50 Plus” in order to meet the growing demand for healthcare services in the aging society. The hospital expects a 30% increase in customers as a result.
With Thai society preparing to enter the Super-Aged Society in 2031, businesses in the health industry are becoming increasingly active in targeting the elderly population. Wimut Hospital is among the players in the private hospital market that seeks to cater to the needs of the aging population and help Thai society prepare for the ultimate aging society.
Dr. Somsak Ankasin, the Chief Executive Officer of Vimut Hospital Holding Co., Ltd., pointed out that Thailand became a Complete Aged Society in 2022 and is now preparing to become a Super Aged Society by 2031. This means that in the future, one third of the country’s population will be over the age of 60. These major demographic changes will create an urgent need for a more inclusive healthcare ecosystem.
According to TTB Analytics, businesses related to the elderly are expected to see continuous growth. The elderly care center business is projected to have a market value of 20 billion baht in 2033, in line with the entry of the Gen X group into the elderly society.
Wimut Hospital places emphasis on promoting the health of people of all ages, especially the elderly. Their goal is to ensure a sustainable good quality of life for the elderly population, guiding Thailand into a stable aging society. The hospital has adjusted its long-term service plans to cover all market needs, focusing on providing care services for the elderly and all members of the family, with the aim of making Thailand the center of the leading medical industry in Asia.
Dr. Somboon Tosaborworn, the Director of Vimut Hospital, discussed the creation of a health ecosystem that encompasses various aspects of healthcare. He emphasized that entering an aging society in Thailand is a significant challenge that requires joint efforts from all sectors to adequately prepare. Patient care is no longer limited to hospitals alone; instead, a seamless and comprehensive approach is adopted, making Vimut Hospital a leading provider of such care in Thailand.
As part of its long-term plan, Wimut Hospital aims to create a strong health ecosystem that reaches a large number of people. This includes the establishment of health clinics, rehabilitation centers, elderly care and nursing centers, as well as the provision of home healthcare services in various projects.
Wimut Hospital also collaborates with medical schools, partner hospitals, insurance companies, and knowledge institutions to raise awareness about health and expand service coverage. The hospital has doctors specializing in various fields, including family physicians and geriatric medicine, who are well-equipped to handle complex diseases. The comprehensive services offered by Wimut Hospital encompass general health check-ups, specialized examinations, diagnosis and treatment, as well as post-treatment healthcare and disease prevention. Common diseases among the elderly, such as musculoskeletal disorders, Parkinson’s disease, dementia, vision and hearing disorders, and depression, are also addressed by the hospital with a holistic approach.
Dr. Montarat Janethaveepornkul, a family physician specializing in Wimut Hospital, provided insights into common diseases among individuals aged 50 and above, as well as tips for maintaining good health. She highlighted that hyperlipidemia, high blood pressure, and diabetes are among the most common diseases and stressed the importance of a healthy lifestyle. Her recommendations include eating a balanced diet, living in a favorable environment, regular exercise, maintaining good mood, getting sufficient sleep, and undergoing annual health checks.
The “ViMUT Healthy 50Plus” campaign is part of Wimut Hospital’s action plan to encourage Thai people aged 50 and above to take charge of their health. The campaign offers medical examination packages conducted by skilled medical personnel and specialists, enabling early disease screening for senior citizens. Wimut Hospital is confident that this campaign will meet the needs of individuals aged 50 and above who aspire to maintain their health and well-being.
In conclusion, Wimut Hospital is adjusting its business plans to cater to the increasing demand for healthcare services in the aging society of Thailand. With their emphasis on promoting health and well-being at all ages, especially among the elderly, and their focus on creating a comprehensive healthcare ecosystem, the hospital aims to contribute to the preparation and transformation of Thai society as it enters the ultimate aging society in the coming years.]
