Welcome to Healing Shinjuku North
On May 1, 2026, a new senior living facility named
Healing Shinjuku North officially opened its doors in Nakaochiai, a tranquil residential area near the border of Shinjuku and Nakano. This
assisted living facility is designed to create an environment that prioritizes the dignity and individuality of its residents. The facility is operated by
Riei Care, a part of the
Riei Group, which has a longstanding reputation for providing quality eldercare services.
