Eustyle Home Tosu: A New Haven for the Severely Disabled in Saga

In an important milestone for disability care in Japan, Eustyle Laboratory Co., Ltd., a leading provider of home care services for individuals with severe disabilities and chronic illnesses, has inaugurated its first group home in Saga Prefecture. The Eustyle Home Tosu officially opened its doors on May 1, 2026, aiming to create a safe and supportive environment for those with profound physical, intellectual, and mental disabilities. It is strategically located at 91 Miyano-mae, Himegata-cho, Tosu City, Saga.

The establishment of this home marks a significant step in Eustyle Laboratory's efforts to enhance local living options for individuals with disabilities and their families. Alongside the existing Eustyle Care Saga Severe Home Care center based in Saga City, the new home will provide a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet the diverse needs of its residents. With a strong demand for residential care solutions in the region, the demand for such services has become increasingly evident since our initial opening in Kurume in 2025.

Expanding Care Options in Kyushu

Eustyle Laboratory has ambitious plans to further expand its footprint within Kyushu. By January 2027, it plans to inaugurate an additional four facilities across the region. This initiative reflects a growing awareness of the urgent need for group homes specializing in severe disabilities. Eustyle's facilities are designed to be equipped with the necessary supports for individuals challenged by significant life complexities, promoting autonomy and dignity.

The Need for Daytime Services

The company’s move aligns with national efforts that push for community integration of people with disabilities, as highlighted by the government’s embrace of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare recognizes the necessity of daytime service support homes, emphasizing their role in community-based support. Currently, daytime service-oriented group homes represent less than 10% of all facilities, indicating a significant service gap that Eustyle aims to address.

Features of Eustyle Home Tosu

Eustyle Home Tosu is designed to cater to a wide range of disabilities, including severe intellectual, mental, and physical impairments. The facility is equipped with elevators and a mechanical bath, ensuring a comprehensive, barrier-free environment. Admission is open to individuals who have been in long-term psychiatric care or those who still seek a suitable, supportive home.

Furthermore, the facility allows for concurrent use of day support care alongside residential care, demonstrating the integrated approach taken by the staff of Eustyle. By collaborating with skilled professionals in severe support care, a safe and welcoming daily life is fostered for all residents.

Expertise in Severe Disability Care

Founded in 2012, Eustyle Laboratory has honed its skills in the specialized area of severe disability care. The company’s training program, Eustyle College, ensures that staff members are well-equipped with essential skills including medical care techniques, particularly for those with complex needs. This dual service model—of in-home care and group homes—enables comprehensive support for the disabled community in Kyushu.

Comprehensive Services Offered

Eustyle Home provides around-the-clock support for residents, ensuring that all necessary services are available:

• - Daily Support: Tasks such as bathing assistance with specialized bathing facilities, toileting support in barrier-free restrooms, and meal provision with medically supervised nutrition.
• - Health Monitoring: Staff assists with medication management, vital checks, and medical coordination with local hospitals to guarantee that residents receive appropriate healthcare.
• - Leisure and Activities: Engaging activities like exercises, art projects, and social events are all part of enhancing the overall well-being of residents.
• - Family and Professional Guidance: Consultations available for families regarding social benefits and assistance programs tailored to their needs.

Looking Ahead

Eustyle Laboratory continues to strive toward establishing a society where individuals with severe disabilities can live fully and independently within their communities. With plans to expand its network of homes to over 70 facilities by 2027, the organization is committed to making inclusive support accessible, ultimately championing the rights and needs of people living with disabilities in Japan.
