Creating a society where the end of life becomes the 'happiest time.'

We support 'April Dream,' an initiative that designates April 1st as a day to share dreams.

This press release represents the dream of 'opsol Inc.'

Is the period requiring nursing care a 'time of loss'?

For many people, the time leading up to the end of life is often spoken of as a 'time of loss.' Things you could once do, you can no longer do. Freedom becomes restricted. You become a burden to those around you.

The period requiring nursing care has somehow been treated as something to be 'endured.'

But is it truly an 'unhappy time'?

A time when the value of life becomes most profound

For example, The moment you finally say 'Thank you' that you could never say before. The moment you can laugh from the heart with your family once again.

Could it be that such moments remain as the deepest and warmest memories of one's life?

We believe in the value of such time.

Fundamentally, the 'period requiring nursing care' should be the time when the value of life becomes most profound.

The future we want to realize

Nevertheless, we feel a sense of discomfort with the current reality where that time is treated as something 'painful' or 'to be endured.'

That is precisely why we want to create a society where the end of life becomes the 'happiest time.'

This is a challenge to change the quality of a time that will naturally come to everyone, not just for someone special.

The relationship between opsol's business and this dream

opsol Inc. operates facilities specializing in end-of-life care for those requiring medical attention, such as terminal cancer or intractable diseases, and also provides visiting nursing, home care, and care housing referral services.

In our daily work facing the end of life, we continue to stand by those living with 'limited time' and their families.

Time spent connecting with others while facing pain and anxiety. Time spent being able to live as oneself.

We have been present for the final moments of many people. Among them, there is an event we still cannot forget.

One resident loved baths and looked forward to them every day. Even as their physical condition became severe, they would say, 'I want to take a bath one more time,' over and over again.

We wanted to fulfill that wish, so we supported their bathing time until just before the very end.

Later, we received these words from the family: 'Thank you so much for letting them take a bath until the very end. We are truly grateful for the compassionate care provided by all the staff.'

We cannot forget these words.

We believe that the accumulation of such moments will significantly change the meaning of the end of life.

Our challenge

What we are aiming for is not simply providing medical or nursing care.

It is to eliminate the feeling of 'having no one to talk to' and to make 'time spent with someone' a natural part of society.

And it is to realize a society where everyone in the period requiring nursing care can think, 'This time was not bad either.'

To that end, we will continue to challenge ourselves to transcend the boundaries of medicine, nursing, and welfare, and to improve the quality of human relationships themselves.

So that the end of life may be the happiest time.
