■ Rising Demand for Housing for Medically Dependent Seniors and Medicare Yu's Market Position

In recent years, demand for 24/7 medical and end-of-life care for seniors with progressive neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and terminal cancer has been rapidly increasing.

'Medicare Yu Nishinomiya,' set to debut in the Nishinomiya area, combines specialized care for severe medical conditions with an innovative approach to enhancing residents’ quality of life (QOL), making it a highly anticipated facility even before its opening.

■ Three Key Features of 'Medicare Yu Nishinomiya' Highlighted by the Specialist Site 'Iikarenet'

An all-inclusive plan covering all fees, even for those requiring intensive medical care.

1. High-Level Response to Severe Neurological Conditions Through 24/7 Medical and Care Coordination
The facility has established a 24-hour support system staffed by nurses and caregivers. It is equipped to flexibly accept residents with neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, and corticobasal degeneration, as well as those requiring terminal care for advanced malignant tumors. It is expected to serve as a vital resource for medically underserved seniors in the region.

2. 'All-Inclusive Plan' Eliminating Financial Uncertainty
The initial admission fee is set at zero, and the monthly usage fee is ¥189,000 (excluding tax). This fee includes not only rent and meals but also daily necessities and consumables (such as diapers) and laundry costs—items that typically incur additional charges at other facilities. Furthermore, furniture, appliances, and bedding are all provided, minimizing family preparation burdens and reducing unexpected post-admission expenses. This is a user-centric pricing model.

The unique interior design featuring replicas of world-famous artworks is attracting attention.

3. Unique Space Design 'World Art Gallery' Focused on Psychological QOL
Under the concept 'Living in the Art—Adding Color from Masterpieces to Daily Life,' the facility displays replicas of world-renowned artworks loved across generations. Designed with a strong emphasis on QOL, it goes beyond a mere medical and caregiving environment, stimulating residents’ senses and emotions through an art-filled atmosphere, enabling them to live peaceful and enriched daily lives.

■ Rapid Admission System: Move-In in as Little as One Week After Hospital Discharge

Anticipating cases where seniors with high medical dependency are required to leave hospitals, the facility plans to offer a rapid response, with the entire process—from inquiry to interview, review, contract, and move-in—completed in as little as one week. Flexible arrangements are also in place for pre-admission facility tours and individual consultations regarding early admission.

Flexible support available for early admission inquiries!

Currently, over 40 of the 74 rooms have already been reserved, leaving only about 10 rooms available for general admission. Therefore, individuals struggling to find housing with medical and end-of-life care support, or those considering admission, are encouraged to contact the facility or schedule a consultation as early as possible.
