"If possible, I want to spend my time peacefully at home."
Even with this wish, many people give up on home end-of-life care due to the anxiety of the night.
Based on its track record in Tokyo, Gran Nurse Asagao has been providing private nursing during the daytime as well as nighttime and on a 24-hour basis, supporting times when not only the patient but also their family can spend peacefully.
We are now pleased to announce the launch of this initiative in the Kansai area.
| The Reality of Choosing Home Care
Due to medical advancements, the final stage of life has become longer.
On the other hand, the choice of 'where to spend it' is still accompanied by hesitation and anxiety.
"I really want to go home."
"I want to let them spend time in a familiar place."
Even with such feelings,
"I am anxious about the night and cannot take my eyes off them." "I feel exhausted from supporting them with just the family."
In many cases, people give up on home recuperation and end-of-life care, especially due to the anxiety of sudden changes at night and the need for monitoring.
| What it Means to Support 'Peaceful Time'
What we value is the "peaceful time" at home.
For the patient to be able to spend time peacefully in a space without rush.
And for the family to also be able to stay by their side with peace of mind during that time.
Having a conversation, quietly staying close, or just being in the same space—we believe there is value in that time itself.
To protect that time, we hope to be a presence that supports from both medical and lifestyle aspects.
| Facing the 'Final Place' Called the Bedroom
Among these, the space we value particularly is the "bedroom."
It is a place where one spends much of the day, and a place to surrender both mind and body.
Soft lighting, quiet air, a familiar environment.
By adding the gentle presence of a nurse to that space, the final time changes significantly.
The choice to spend time not in a hospital room, but in a space true to oneself.
That becomes an irreplaceable time not only for the patient but also for the family.
| Nursing that Stays Close at Night
At Gran Nurse Asagao, a nurse visits the home at night or on a 24-hour basis, providing monitoring and active listening in addition to medical care.
Especially during the highly anxious nighttime hours, there is always someone present.
That leads to peace of mind, freeing the family from the tension of "what if something happens," and creating an environment where they can rest their mind and body.
From "time that must be monitored" to "time to spend together."
Supporting that change is our role.
| Voices from Families
We have received the following voices from families who have actually used our service.
"By being able to spend time at home, I think my mother was able to be true to herself until the end.
Because someone was by her side at night, we were able to watch over her without anxiety."
Not only for the patient, but for the family to also be able to think, "I'm glad we had this time."
That is the nursing we aim for.

"What I have felt in many fields so far is that 'how peacefully one can spend the night time' is greatly related to the quality of that person's final time.
I have seen many families who, while truly wishing to spend time at home, cannot make that choice due to anxiety.
That is why we believe that nursing includes not only the patient's time but also preparing an environment where the family can stay close with peace of mind.
Even in Kansai, we will value every connection and stay close to a time that is true to each person."
