AboutAbout the lab
Pursuing psychiatric nursing, freely and in your own way.
The Psychiatric Nursing Lab (Sugaya Lab) specializes in psychiatric nursing within the Global Health Nursing Lab.
In addition to psychiatric nursing, the lab works on a variety of topics, including child and adolescent psychiatric nursing, nursing education, nursing ethics, forest therapy, and forest-based health care.
There are opportunities for discussion with alumni and graduates, clinical nurses and physicians, psychiatric social workers, certified public psychologists, and people with lived experience who live in the community.
The lab also takes part in World Mental Health Day in TSUKUBA and works together with people with lived experience on peer support activities.

*Illustrative imageRecovery of people with schizophrenia
In schizophrenia care, thinking has shifted from the idea that healthcare professionals cure the patient to the idea of recovery, in which the person with the condition lives in their own way. In Japan, the definition of recovery has not yet been settled. This is a focus group interview study aimed at clarifying its components.
