We are fully committed to provide health care of our community , so that all the residents would be able to enjoy their everyday life with sense of reassurance throughout life.

Thank you for visiting our website of Kobe City Higashinada-ward Medical Association. Our association is composed of approximately 200 medical institutions, from clinics of various specialty to six hospitals.

Our mission is to provide medical, social care in order to protect health and well-being of the people in our community.

We have been in the third year under COVID-19 pandemic. From the early phase of the pandemic, we have been working together with Higashinada-ward office, providing a series of vaccination, clinical care for those with fever, and paying home-calls for those in need. However, given the fact that the number of the infected people would still on the rise at the moment within the seventh wave of the pandemic, we are still obliged to cautiously carry on our activities in this respect.

Under currently tough situation, health and social care center within our association, which has been commissioned by Kobe municipal office since 2016, has been engaged actively in many fields. Thus, we have established network among health and social care professionals. Among our activities, we have regularly provided lectures and workshops for our community, in cooperation with group of health professionals, which are physicians of private practice, dentists, pharmacist, nurses in charge of housecalls and social care professionals. Through these activities, we have established network for healthcare and shared essential information in our community.

Although lectures and workshops have been held within restricted number of the participant due to the pandemic, we are glad to know that our activities have got good response. We also appreciate the positive impact on us by the interaction with the community.

We are not fully sure when the pandemic would come under full control. Nevertheless, we are fully committed to serve health care for our community, providing reassurance for the sake of the residents.

We would be grateful and appreciated for your recognition and cooperation of our activity.
