Currently in Taiwan, only National Taiwan University Hospital offers a relatively specialized team for in-patient care of anorexics. The main reason for hospitalization is usually that the parents find themselves at wit's end attempts to persuade the child to eat have been defeated by their child's resistance, and they therefore seek the hospital's assistance.
台灣目前只有台大醫院有較專門的團隊可以照顧住院厭食患者，但住進的原因，大部分是因為家長已經束手無策了，只好向醫院求助。
