Introduction of 24-Hour Nursing Care Plan at Dormy Mejiro-Dai

Dormy Mejiro-Dai, part of the Dormy Senior series operated by Kyoritsu Maintenance, has recently launched its groundbreaking "24-Hour Nursing Care Plan." This initiative is the first of its kind within the Dormy brand, set to strengthen its support for seniors needing ongoing medical attention, including advanced medical care such as suction therapy and tube feeding. By implementing this plan, Dormy Mejiro-Dai demonstrates its commitment to adapting to the evolving needs of the aging population in Japan.

Increased Demand for Medical Care in Nursing Facilities

As the population of elderly individuals rises significantly, the role of nursing facilities has expanded to not only provide daily living assistance but also to handle complex medical needs, continuous healthcare, and end-of-life care. Residents and their families have expressed an urgent desire to remain in familiar surroundings should medical procedures be necessary, emphasizing the need for a comforting presence of nurses during nighttime hours. In response to these demands, Dormy Mejiro-Dai has decided to establish a comprehensive 24-hour nursing plan.

The new service plan encompasses several features:

• - Reliable Nighttime Monitoring: Nurses will conduct rounds at night to promptly detect any changes in residents' conditions and provide swift, appropriate responses during emergencies.
