With the recent increase in the number of tourists and foreign residents visiting Japan, the required language skills have diversified from simple hospitality conversations for tourists to more polite, detailed, and prompt responses in foreign languages at medical facilities. Furthermore, this phenomenon is not limited to large cities and tourist attractions; the number of foreign patients is also increasing in rural areas. However, the safety net is in fact fragile, and medical facilities have not yet developed an environment conducive to accepting and serving foreign patients. Few medical facilities can confidently accept foreign-language speakers, and this is a major challenge for Japan as it moves forward with inbound tourism and new immigration policies. There are not many schools or educational institutions that offer courses and seminars that meet the specific needs for medical facilities. Stella Innovations was one of the first to recognize this need, and we are using our experience and know-how to provide professional and practical learning opportunities for those working in the medical field.
