AboutAbout the lab
Training physicians for community healthcare
The Community General Practitioner Training Endowed Department was established inside Tome City Hospital in Tome, Miyagi Prefecture, to train physicians who contribute to community healthcare.
Tome is experiencing population decline along with a falling birthrate and an aging population, and is said to be facing in advance the problems that urban areas will face in the future.
While seeing a wide variety of diseases in the general medicine outpatient clinic, the lab educates Tohoku University School of Medicine students and junior residents in their initial clinical training.
Tome City Hospital has the Tome City Visiting Nursing Station attached to it, and is described as an ideal environment for developing a new approach to home medical care systems.
