What a Japanese Nursing Home is Like

 Its morning we are in Azalee, a Japanese social welfare company We are in one of their nursing homes Good morning nice to see you again This is morning and morning meeting time They will have such a gathering time before starting to work They will discuss daily work and do daily reflection What you did and what you can't do Good job let's start!

Now the day has officially started, Mr. Fukuhara will show us how these old people live Are you ready? Please take care of me Every day in Japan, there are such radio exercises. Relax your muscles gently and gently I noticed that both sitting and standing people can do this gymnastics People who are sitting please try to relax Put the arm down You will immediately realize that this place is too big. This can be seen from Mr. Fukuharas hasty footsteps. Oh she's not here today.

Good morning! Is she not here today? Today we have a guest who is going to shoot some content here -Good morning-good morning Oh sorry to disturb you Good morning, Miss Keiriki We have a visitor today I know Come to see you Nakajima-san I know He is going to take a matchmaking photo for you Hahahahaha As you move around you will find many occasions for distributing medicines Whether in the hallway or bedroom -Am I going to be filmed in the video? -Yes Oh what do i do If I knew it, I would wear it better today This is for muscle pain Called thermotherapy It emits some waves to improve blood circulation In this way this machine can relieve pain Good morning -Good morning-good morning Ok (blood pressure) 142/80 Great? Are you nervous about the camera? Hahaha Good next Wear it here today 99% 98 times Not bad -As usual-as usual Her face is full of pain Coming Good job well done Now we go through this milky passage to the new wing of the nursing home -Good morning-excuse me Mrs.

Yamanaka, how old are you? -94 -94 years old -94 years old? -If Japan is 95 years old in the traditional sense -95 years old is the traditional age-actually 94 years old He is going to take photos of you on blind dates -I know it-hahahaha Mrs. Taki, how old are you? Mrs. Taki is the same age, you two should be classmates, right? -Please follow her-ok -Can you show him your room? -I like tidy-yes it is tidy indeed Do you like your room? Are you sleeping well? -Um-she said she likes it She often goes to karaoke -Karaoke? -I like Hahahaha This part will rise like this Nurse call if there is a problem, you can use it.

Let us test it What's wrong with you, Mrs. Jun? Sorry this is a good test for her -Ok-ok thank you Nurse call This means that this nurse is in charge of this house Like a general dental practitioner Also like some beauty salons Do you think I cut too short? Do you want to show your ears -He will take pictures of you-hahaha stop Please wait for me to clean your dentures Do you feel okay with the dentures, please? -Do you feel comfortable? -no problem -Thank you very much-I should do it In addition to senior care Azalee, there is also care for children -Good morning-good morning It's over Children of Azalee employees have priority in enrollment I have always liked seeing these mini toilets and sinks so cute Here is the teacher Where did you go today -We drilled the graduation ceremony-Oh drilled the graduation ceremony 1 2 When you feel sad and want to cry please remember Good job Ok let's go there to practice graduation See you! See you! The benefits of having nursing homes and kindergartens at the same time are Just sometimes Children or the elderly can visit each other No, this is not an amusement park for children but an escape staircase for the elderly The elderly to be served on another timeline are here The shuttle bus has arrived Good morning nice to see you again -Hello good Morning -101 years old -101 years old? -Looks healthy Now Mr.

Nozaki will tell us the daily service process here We will check their temperature and blood pressure when they come here If there is no problem, some people can start bathing Do some exercise Others are drinking tea and chatting while waiting Then there is a morning set time for everyone at 11 o'clock Work out with everyone, especially do some exercises that are good for swallowing Then we eat together around 12 o'clock Then we eat together around 12 o'clock Drink coffee or tea after lunch Then in the afternoon is entertainment time, such as doing some crafts or entertainment shows Now she is trying to use her left hand Weave something like scarves Do activities for about an hour or an hour and a half Then eat some snacks and gradually return home This is their day in life Since I came here I think I have become very energetic really? That's great Really since I came here (physical is better) I have been bedridden until then Its nice to keep yourself busy I get positive power from others It makes me very healthy Oh, that's great! Now I am happy to show you my favorite place in the whole nursing home -The chair can rotate like this-ah -Close-Okay, close here Then press the button here Can you sit here? Will not add water Okay, Makino, sit here Fix the handle and then take this Then slightly tilted Oh oh oh -Go ahead-ok like this Then close the door hahaha The jacuzzi water comes up -This is the water level-Oh, here you can adjust the water level that guests need Put some water in Let me out wait wait Click here first The water comes up -This is a jacuzzi-Yes, a lot of bubbles -Like this-ah~~~ In comparison, this is a small bathroom on the long-term residential floor Please see this is where we make food This cabinet can separate hot and cold food We have registered dietitians That person is our nutritionist Food for the elderly About 1500 to 1600 calories per day So we dont care about the amount of food but more about the way the food is eaten Food that is easy to chew and swallow is very important We use a blender to mix and soften the food This makes it easier for the elderly to swallow His main food is porridge and soup His main food is porridge and soup We configure food according to the needs of different people Food is usually like this Or this is for people who cant chew or swallow easily Now employees are packing food and delivering it to an organization near them By the way, Azalee runs a number of nursing care institutions From children to the elderly (both) including this organization that serves the elderly who are not able to take care of themselves The people here have serious disabilities Such as paraplegia and quadriplegia, they are all bedridden So we established such a special medical institution Kind of like a small hospital What surprised me was that I saw such an area To simulate the decoration of a traditional Japanese home Many patients suffer from Alzheimer's, so a room like this is very comfortable for some people Although this is a nursing home, there are some people who work here They found such a job through a special recruitment center This job requires over 55 years of age If you observe the room in this nursing home You will feel that it is more like a small unit in a hospital than a dormitory-like room in a nursing home These remind me of the wards of most Canadian hospitals Its very similar to this Japanese style, such as this screen partition Or use this flaky door to isolate several units What you are looking at is a private room for short stay Its purpose is to facilitate family visits Also need some temporary help How do those who live in these facilities get in? Do you want to know how to get this special care service? First you have to come for a consultation Then you need to test out your real needs Then you can apply for government support When you enter our institution, you will be assigned a nursing manager to make a plan together Aiming to have self-care skills such as going to a rehabilitation clinic Go to a daycare center or ask for a special assistant There are many ways to make you self-care Due to concerns about Japans aging population I asked the chairman-Dr.

Lai Qi about what role he thinks technology will play By the way, this is a mainstream topic in Japan today Especially in some nursing homes and these areas Because we are short of employees So Japan tried to develop robots Also called IOTs Internet of Things See you again hello my name is pepper Robots in nursing homes can communicate with the elderly Especially those who suffer from Alzheimer's How are you feeling today? I'm very good I am glad you are so healthy Can I call you Mr. Health later? Okay Great thank you very much Mr.

Health, you sound like from a foreign country pepper i'm here Have you ever lived overseas Yes Mr. Health, it looks like you still want to chat with me, dont you? Enough Oh fine I still have many interesting stories to tell you Please come again of course Bye bye!.
