Abstract:
Abstract:With the promotion of health-promoting school (HPS) in China, the school health workers’ awareness of the HPS’ connotation is deepening. The literature review method was used to systematically review the relevant research literature about HPS in Taiwan. We summarized the characteristics of Taiwan HPS in 4 stages: embryonic stage, growing stage, consolidation stage and up-graded stage. Furthermore, we concluded that the HPS’ features of strengthening the evidencebased HPS program, establishing the Health-Promoting School Supporting Network(HPSSN), promoting life skills integrated the health education, and building comprehensive supportive environment as well as Taiwan HPS website. In summary, we proposed that the government should provide much more policy support and funding, establish the HPS supporting network, and strengthen life skills as well as health literacy oriented health teaching, and so on.
