越来越多的移徙护理人员从较贫穷国家流向较富裕国家，这不仅反映了较富裕国家的护理不足，而且也揭示了有关移徙护理人员权利和工作条件的问题。关于台湾《家庭服务法》的讨论提请注意留宿移徙护理工人在社会中的弱势和边缘化状况。在这篇文章中，我调查了围绕在台湾家庭服务法立法的争论，以阐明护理工作和护理关系的复杂性。通过说明护理工作者和护理对象及其家庭之间的护理悖论和动态，我认为，国家在提供护理资源和支持家庭的重要作用。
The increasing flow of migrant care workers from poorer to wealthier countries not only reflects care deficits in the latter countries, but also reveals issues concerning the rights and working conditions of migrant care workers. The discussion on the Household Services Act in Taiwan draws attention to the vulnerable and marginalized situation of live-in migrant care workers in society. In this essay, I investigate the debates around legislating the Household Service Act in Taiwan to shed light on the complexities of care work and care relations. By illustrating the care paradoxes and dynamics between care workers and care recipients and their families, I argue that the state has an important role in providing care resources and support to families.
