If Family members / Visitors get sick or injured in the hospital
If it is an emergency, please notify the hospital staff. If not, please consult with International
Services staff. You may be asked to have a consultation with a physician in order to prevent
possible infections to the other patients.
If you have symptoms or conditions of cold or infection such as fever of over 37.5℃ , a sore throat
or coughing, rash on body and red eyes, please refrain from visiting the hospital in order to protect
our patients. We also would like to ask you not to take children under 12 years old to the hospital, if
they have never been vaccinated for and haven’t had measles, chickenpox, rubella and mumps.
Although you have symptoms described
here, you will be allowed to come into the
ward in the following cases: your symptoms
are caused by a chronic disease (not by an
infectious disease), you have a special permit
given by a head nurse of the ward, etc.
Support from patient family members
We consider it is important that proposed procedure and treatment are understood by not only a
patient but also his/her family members. Each family member may have different opinions and
requests regarding treatment. We ask a patient and his/her family members to work together to
make a decision about the treatment that is the best for the patient and family.
We would like family members to have flexible schedule as we sometimes ask family members
to be with the patient during the consultations, explanations about inpatient treatment,
the nutrition counseling, etc.
Documentation services (Japanese and English)
We can provide a document for family members who need to take a leave of absence from work to accompany the patient. A document can be issued Japanese or English.
If you wish to have a cancer screening
Many of family members who accompany a patient wish to schedule a cancer screening during their stay in Japan. We have Cancer Screening Center that is located in the same facility as the hospital. The center promotes early detection and treatment for cancer.
