Transforming Home Healthcare: 'Asukan Match'
In the face of Japan's aging population, the healthcare landscape is shifting significantly from hospitals to home-based care. Recognizing the urgent need for accessible resources, Ijinn Co. has unveiled a groundbreaking platform called 'Asukan Match.' Officially launched, this free web service connects patients, families, and healthcare providers seamlessly, enabling all users to find and compare home nursing services that fit their specific needs.
The Vision Behind 'Asukan Match'
The impetus for creating 'Asukan Match' stemmed from common challenges encountered by both families considering home healthcare and home nursing stations. Many families express confusion:
- - Lack of clarity on how to utilize home healthcare effectively.
- - Dispersed information complicating the understanding of service availability in their area.
- - Difficulty in assessing specialized care options and the current acceptance status of facilities.
Similarly, nursing stations often face hurdles like:
- - Struggling to leverage online platforms to showcase their strengths.
- - Limited opportunities for new patient engagement.
- - Time constraints on managing sales and information updates.
'Asukan Match' addresses these issues proactively, aiming to bridge the gap between care seekers and providers in home healthcare.
