Department of Emergency Medical Technology

We know the significant social need for developing Emergency Life-saving Technicians as a crucial part of community support and human resources. The training of these professionals is an urgent matter in today’s society
 
Emergency Life-saving Technicians will provide a vital link to medical care for those injured or sick in their homes, assisted living facilities, and other non-hospital settings.
 
We firmly believe that lifesaving and rescue go hand in hand. 
 
That is why we have established a special training facility, one of the few in the country, where students can acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for lifesaving and rescue efforts. 
 
We prepare students to play an active role in disaster relief and rescue operations through practical training exercises using high-level equipment and specialized devices in this training facility.

Gingivitis, closely related to the development of lifestyle-related illnesses, has garnered increasing attention, and there is a growing social demand for improving oral health through prevention. 

 
The need to improve oral health through preventive measures is on the rise. Since good oral and gingival health is crucial for overall health, the role of specialists in oral and gingival health care is becoming more critical.
 
In response to this social need, and as a new contribution to the community in the era of Reiwa, we have established the Department of Oral Health Sciences to train Gingival Health specialists. Our goal is to contribute to extending healthy life expectancy in the community. We will train prospective students to collaborate with future multidisciplinary and team-based healthcare efforts.
