Yokohama City is Japan's largest local government, with over 3.7 million citizens living there. With a history, the 18 administrative districts have regional characteristics, such as the sea, harbor, and greenery, and many other rich natural buildings.
Public health nurse activities in Yokohama City, a government-designated city that combines the functions of the “Municipal Health Center” and the “Health Center”, are from work to protect health in the area closest to citizens to the “Yokohama City Child and Child Care Support Project Plan”, “Healthy Yokohama 21” and “Yokohama Positive Aging Plan” to formulate policies for the entire city.
With the population decline and super-aging society in large cities and Yokohama, complex and complex living issues such as social isolation, double care, 80 50 problems, abuse, and health disparities have become apparent, and the needs are becoming more diverse.
The work as a public health nurse in Yokohama, which realizes a community where everyone can live in their own health with peace of mind, is full of reward. In public health nursing, public health nurses in Yokohama are preparing for the occurrence of various health crises such as disasters and infectious diseases, and are working with a basic stance of "the mission and ethics to protect the lives of all people, the health of local communities, and the lives of their lives."
