Director,The University of Osaka Hospital
The University of Osaka Hospital's ideal is "providing high-quality medical care while contributing to the training of medical professionals and the advancement of medicine." Our basic principles are: (1) To provide patient-centered, safe, and holistic medical care; (2) To practice advanced medical care and develop future medical treatments; (3) To contribute to society and regional healthcare; and (4) To nurture outstanding medical professionals with abundant humanity. With these principles in mind, and aiming to embody the University of Osaka's philosophy of "Live Locally,Grow Globally", all of our staff members dedicate themselves to daily medical care.
Three Types of Safety We Value
We believe that patient-centered, reliable, safe, and holistic medical care can be provided with these three types of safety.
In April 2003, the University of Osaka Hospital established a specialized department (Department of Clinical Quality Management) responsible for the "quality and safety of medical care," as the first among university hospitals nationwide. We shall continue striving to provide safe, high-quality medical care to our patients, aiming to serve as a model for national university hospitals in Japan.
Patients cannot be provided compassionate medical care except in an environment where staff can work in good physical and mental health. In addition to introducing new technologies such as AI, we will promote reforms in work practices in various professions.
We make every effort to create an environment where everyone can feel safe and secure, including maintaining security and cleanliness in both outpatient and inpatient wards.
A sound administrative environment is required to maintain this kind of safety, and we shall continue our management efforts to deserve your support.
Creating the Future Today: The Integrated Care Building and advanced medical treatments
The Integrated Care Building, completed last year, is operating well based on the concept of "Futurability: Creating the Future Today." Central Clinical Facilities, including outpatient services, radiological examinations, and clinical laboratories, have been upgraded, and the functions of operating rooms and minimally invasive facilities have also been improved. The Comprehensive Perinatal Medical Center and the Eye Center have been equipped with ward functions, significantly enhancing their medical capabilities.
With the goal of creating new medical treatments, we collaborate with affiliated organizations at the University of Osaka, including the Graduate School of Medicine, and are working on many advanced medical treatments, including regenerative medicine.
Aiming to be a Trusted Hospital
The environment surrounding university hospitals is becoming increasingly severe, but we shall continue our efforts of sound administration, and strive to meet expectations more than ever through innovative approaches. "Live Locally, Grow Globally," we sincerely ask your continued support for the University of Osaka Hospital.
