About
Handa Central Hospital, located in Ariwaki-cho, Handa City, Aichi Prefecture, is a hospital serving the local community with a focus on gastroenterology. In June 2025, the hospital opened a Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Center within its facilities, enhancing its specialized diagnostic capabilities with gastroscopy and colonoscopy services. Outpatient consultations are held Monday through Saturday mornings, with designated consultation days for specialists in orthopedics and neurosurgery. One of the hospital's distinguishing features is its Home Medical Care Center, which provides visiting medical services and house calls. For patients who have difficulty attending outpatient appointments, the hospital delivers around-the-clock home medical care in coordination with visiting nurses, visiting pharmacists, and care managers. The hospital also places strong emphasis on recovery-phase rehabilitation, operating a Recovery Coordination Office that accepts transfers from acute-care hospitals and supports patients in returning home. Dedicated nurses and medical social workers handle consultations at this office. English-language assistance is available, and the facility is equipped with parking and barrier-free amenities, ensuring an accessible environment for a wide range of patients.
