Otemae University Aim What is an international nurse?
In Japanese medical care, International nursing skills Why is it necessary?
The globalization of Japanese medical care It has become urgent.
Today's Japan is already an "internationalized society" where a variety of people, including foreign residents, foreign visitors to Japan, and Japanese people living abroad, are involved in addition to Japanese people. The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has undertaken various initiatives to create an "accepting environment" for foreign outpatients at medical institutions. Thanks to these efforts, approximately 80% of medical institutions have experience accepting foreign patients in outpatient care, and approximately 60% of medical institutions have experience accepting foreign patients in inpatient care. As the number of foreign residents and visitors to Japan increases, it is essential to increase the number of medical institutions that can accept foreign patients and improve their services. To solve this problem, it is necessary to train medical staff who can respond not only in English but also in simple Japanese, and who have the skills to understand different cultures and religions.
DiversityUnderstanding of Global Societyto Adaptability.
As shown in the figure, a diverse range of people live in modern Japan, and the proportion of foreigners is particularly high in the Keihanshin area, which also directly reflects the proportion of people in the medical field. Nurses who can speak languages other than Japanese, understand foreign cultures and customs, and are receptive and tolerant will definitely be active in the medical field of the future.
Communication skills Considered important Global talent.
In a society where we understand diversity beyond the differences and boundaries of countries, values, customs, and other cultures, and live together while respecting and accepting differences, "culture" is also an important foundation of medical care.The Resilient Nurse" We will cultivate the following.
Male nurseof Respond to social needs.
There are an increasing number of situations in which male nurses are needed, such as dealing with large and strong patients, male patients who request to be cared for by someone of the same sex, and emergency transport sites. The need for male nurses will continue to grow in the future in order to be able to support those who receive care, so that they can feel safe in both mind and body.
Patients have a variety of There is a position. RegionalLearn in a real-world setting.
The medical field does not only include medical institutions that we see every day. For example, our department works in cooperation with Kakogawa Prison to learn from medical professionals on the ground how to treat prisoners. You will also gain experience in dealing with subjects in unique positions, such as their psychological state and nursing methods.
From the first year to the fourth year, Nursing for diversity AwarenessThis was the lesson.
Although there are national nursing qualifications such as "public health nurse" and "midwife," this faculty is characterized by its focus on education in "nurses." From the first to fourth year, students are offered nursing classes that can respond to a globalized society, cultivating the qualities and basic skills required for a nurse. Upon graduation from this faculty, students are eligible to take the "national nursing examination."
Deepen your thinking Learning Space
The campus of our faculty, located in an area where the city's major institutions such as Osaka Castle and the Osaka Prefectural Government Office are located, was newly established with the themes of "urban," "stylish," and "mature." We have eliminated unnecessary objects and decorations, and adopted cutting-edge equipment and a smartly designed interior. We envisioned a space suitable for learning to become independent adults.Facility Introduction
「Global Talent Nurses as"of Wear it.
What is required is: "A nurse who never gives up."
Unfortunately, even in today's globalized Japan, many prejudices and discrimination remain. I want students in this faculty to know that their words and actions can lead to the joy or sorrow of others. I also want them to know that there are many people who feel pain other than discrimination, and to develop the ability to think about "how can we empathize with others and sympathize with their pain?" By repeatedly experiencing the basics of nursing, exercises and practical training at our university, I hope that students will acquire the knowledge, skills and mental strength to withstand all the difficulties they will encounter in the nursing field. The mission of our faculty is to nurture such "resilient nurses" and to nurture nurses as global human resources who will be the key to diverse fields in the future.

Our department invites people who are active in the field around the world as Lecturer, and teaches a true international perspective.

Direct knowledge and techniques are the most important skills when practicing medicine, but in this department, we want students to have a wide range of knowledge and experience as medical professionals and members of society. For example, students will undergo practical training at quarantine stations at ports and airports, deepening their knowledge related to medicine.
