AboutAbout the lab
Nursing that supports people's way of life in the places they live
The Community Health Support Lab conducts education and research in public health nursing, home care nursing, and gerontological nursing.
The lab conducts education and research on nursing that enables people receiving care in their living environments, their families, and community residents to live vibrantly in their own way.
In gerontological nursing, the lab studies methods of seamless nursing and support so that older adults living in various settings, not only in medical institutions, can continue to live in the way they choose in familiar communities even when they need long-term care.
On the lab's website, the lab is presented together with the maternal nursing, midwifery, and pediatric nursing lab as the Wide-Area Lifespan Nursing field.
