Visiting guidance
Public health nurses and nurses at the ward office visit families who are over 40 years old and live alone or are frail to help maintain the health of themselves and their families.
Meal service
If it is difficult to secure a meal, such as those who live alone or are in a household with moderate or severe need for nursing care, a food distribution service provider will deliver nutritionally balanced meals and provide safety confirmation.
The number of uses is 1 meal per day and 5 meals a week, and you will be required to pay the actual cost such as foodstuff costs.
