Health Care Systems in Nursing Area
【Community Health Systems Nursing】
Based on the principles of health promotion, this area explores group practical nursing at school, in a community or at work place. This area is building community health systems in cooperation with health, medicine and welfare by inspecting scientifically improvements of the QOL of individuals, families or groups living in community and as well as achievements of healthy lifestyle.
【Home Healthcare Nursing】
Paying attention to nursing problems occurring during the environmental transition of the transfer of the sick person from the medical facility such as hospital to home, we explore methods to organize and support a life environment so as to prevent from lifestyle diseases and to improve the QOL of the people living with a chronic disease.
【Environment-focused Nursing】
We conduct studies and provide education based on fieldwork practice or nursing theories and models by examining the efficacy of nursing equipment, measuring environmental infection inside medical treatment facilities, considering the health care environment from architectural and psychological point of views, assessing remote nursing, challenging an environment with amenities such as colors, sounds and fragrance and putting into question nursing in terms of time and space such as biological impact of environmental factors, sleep, safety or comfort.
