Judgment based on good knowledge and evidence, accurate nursing skills, and high ethics are very important in patient care. Seven nurses engaged in nursing education and the nurses in charge of education in each nursing unit leads learning of more than 1,400 nurses. The carrier ladder system supports active learning and development of nurses from beginners to experts. The online training tool “Nursing Skills Japan” supervised by the Department has been used as teaching materials.

Medical treatment at university hospitals consists of not only doctors and nurses, but also includes a wide variety of medical professions and occupations that support the medical care of patients. In addition to maximizing the expertise of each profession and providing the optimal medical treatment to each individual patient, we proactively utilize a variety of multi-disciplinary approaches that take full advantage of the personality and characteristics that are unique to a university hospital.

Within the carrier ladder system, we are committed to promoting nursing research, which is one of the roles of a university hospital. Nurses will learn about nursing research step by step, supported by advanced nurses (Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNS) and Certified Nurses (CN)), nurses with master’s degrees, nurse managers, and teaching staff in the School of Nursing at the University of Tokyo.
