Bridge Co., Ltd. Expands Nationwide with New Facilities

In a bold move aimed at enhancing home care services throughout Japan, Bridge Co., Ltd., headquartered in Kochi, has announced the opening of three new facilities by June 2026. With a vision of creating a rich society where life in both rural and urban areas is equally fulfilled, the company is accelerating its expansion of operational bases nationwide.

Overview of the New Facilities

The three new operational bases include two new establishments and one conversion from a satellite office. The details are as follows:

1. Care Plan Center En Mitoyo (Mitoyo, Kagawa Prefecture)
2. En Home Care Station Kumamoto (Kumamoto City, Kumamoto Prefecture)
3. En Home Care Station Shimanto (Shimanto City, Kochi Prefecture - converted from a satellite office)

These new bases represent a significant step in Bridge's commitment to providing outstanding home care services across varying regions in Japan. With this expansion, the number of bases offering home care services rises to 20 across 14 prefectures, solidifying Bridge’s presence across the nation.

Comprehensive Create Care Services

Bridge has established several types of services across Japan:

• - Home nursing in 20 locations across 14 prefectures, including dense urban areas and rural locations such as Tokyo, Kumamoto, and Okinawa.
• - Care planning centers located in both Kochi and Kagawa prefectures.
• - Day services, currently operating in Kochi.
• - Travel support services, designed for nationwide coverage.

Bridge’s motivation for expanding its footprint is not merely to increase business size but to address the serious issue of accessibility to proper home care based on geographical location. The company is committed to eliminating the disparity in living conditions that inhibits individuals from living fully, regardless of their residence.

Commitment to Overcoming Disparities

As Bridge's CEO, Masayoshi Toritani emphasized in his comments, “The name 'En' signifies relationships and emotions accumulated through human interaction—joyful and sad moments that connect lives. Our mission extends deeply into the lives of local residents, ensuring we facilitate a choice for happiness and well-being.”

The opening of facilities in Mitoyo, Kumamoto, and Shimanto builds another bridge towards a society where people can make decisions leading to their happiness, regardless of whether they reside in urban or rural settings.

Ambitious Mission Statement

“Pursuing the desire to 'live as oneself' is our mission,” Bridge states, emphasizing their goal of making life in rural areas no less fulfilling than that in urban centers. The company strives to be recognized as the most challenging company in the home care sector, constantly innovating its business model. Their services extend beyond home nursing, as Bridge also offers:

• - Day services
• - Home care management services
• - Travel support services staffed by qualified medical and caregiving professionals

With their focus on multifaceted service provision, Bridge aims to break the barriers between healthcare and caregiving, thus continuously delivering value that enhances quality of life.

In Conclusion

The journey of creating a balanced society for all, where life experiences converge regardless of location, is one they are committed to pursuing relentlessly. The new facilities are just a stepping stone toward this fulfilling future.
