"Delivering daily, subtle community information within reach." In Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture, we interviewed Ms. Yuko Isono, Representative Director and Administrator of "Chiiki Marugoto Care Station Kawasaki," about the state of community-rooted visiting nursing and the utilization of technology with a 10-year perspective in this era of population decline. eWeLL Co., Ltd. (Stock Code: 5038, Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Osaka), which supports the productivity and quality improvement of home healthcare through DX, including the dedicated electronic medical record for visiting nurses "iBow," today released an interview video with Ms. Isono, who has been using iBow for four years. ▶ Watch the video ## We want the community to use the power of nursing. Ms. Isono, while working at a university hospital, became aware of the problem that "many people only come to the hospital after their illness has worsened." She felt that there was a need for a place in the community where people could consult "before they get sick." With the desire to "make the community where I live more livable from now on," she opened a visiting nurse station in Saiwai Ward, Kawasaki City. They limited their visiting area to their immediate vicinity, setting it within a 2.5km radius. They practice care that supports and coexists with the community, while conveying important "current community information" to elderly people living at home. ## What will healthcare be like in 10 years? Japan in the world and technology utilization. "We need to think now about what kind of medical care we will provide within the available budget." Ms. Isono, who experienced healthcare policies during her overseas visits to Geneva, Switzerland, and Paris, France, realized the future where resources and funds available for medical care would be limited due to the declining birthrate and working-age population. She shared her thoughts on what medical professionals should do now. "Changing the mechanism and way of thinking about medical care itself with technology." Furthermore, Ms. Isono, who realized Japan's delay in technology utilization through her visit to Taiwan, said, "I'm not good at IT," but she continues to incorporate digital technology into the visiting nursing field, updating operations and the way care is provided. ## A system that enables "correct visiting nursing operations." Ms. Isono, who said she wanted to handle personal information protection and legal compliance without difficulty, emphasizes iBow's security certification and the mechanism for "correct visiting nursing operations" where records and billing cannot proceed without submitting a doctor's order. In addition, iBow and the administrative management outsourcing service shorten the time particularly spent on "record-keeping, travel, and billing" in visiting nursing. The regional comprehensive care platform "CareLogood" provides an environment where multidisciplinary professionals can collaborate like chatting, without relying on phone, fax, or email. Ms. Isono's goal of "creating a livable community through nursing" and the utilization of iBow to "create time for nurses" through technology.
