1. Keep a distance and be sure to wear a mask
When having a conversation make sure to stay about 2m apart from each other and wear a mask when facing each other.

2. Ventilation: Highly efficient ventilation system
According to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, if the ventilation volume is at least 30 m3 / hour the closed space is not considered poorly ventilated.

At our hospital, we have introduced the Rosnai ventilation system of Mitsubishi Electric Building Techno Service Co., Ltd. from the beginning, and we have secured a ventilation volume as much as 3 to 10 times the standard (the actual value varies depending on the location).

Efficient ventilation becomes possible without mixing the air in the hospital with the fresh outside air by collecting the heat of extracted air and using it to bring the fresh outside air to room temperature.

Therefore, we are able to maintain a comfortable and secure indoor environment even in the winter.

3. Introduced genetic testing equipment for new coronavirus infections (from January)
We will perform a screening test for new coronavirus infections for patients who will be hospitalized and patients who are scheduled for outpatient surgery, and will be hospitalized and operated on after confirming a negative result.

Even after hospitalization, if fever or cold symptoms appear, tests will be performed as needed.

Abbott’s ID NOWTM device is used for inspection.

ID NOWTM

COVID-19

COVID-19 test within 13 minutes
ID NOW is an infectious disease genetic testing system that combines both speed and accuracy.

The ID NOWTM COVID-19 test gives results within 13 minutes, making it easier to diagnose immediately at the first visit.

The easy-to-use ID NOW system is designed to be used as a point-of-care test near the patient in various medical settings.

4. Visit restrictions
Visits are not permitted.

For children who need to be accompanied at the time of admission, their companions must also undergo the same test and show negative results.

During hospitalization, it is also forbidden to go out, to stay overnight outside of the hospital and to meet other people elsewhere.

Currently, it is believed that there are many asymptomatic infected people.
It is easy to understand when someone has symptoms, but since people can be asymptomatic and still have the virus, please observe the following rules in the hospital.

1.Talk at a distance of about 2m
2.Have a conversation wearing a mask
3.Do not speak with a loud voice
4.Disinfect hands
