Located adjacent to the scenic Suma Beach Park, Nomura Kaigan Hospital is a designated training facility of the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society and an affiliated hospital of the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery at Hyogo College of Medicine. The hospital provides endoscopic examinations and endoscopic surgeries (ESD, EST, etc.), and actively performs laparoscopic surgeries that are minimally invasive and gentle on the body, especially for elderly patients.

As an NST-certified facility, the hospital offers nutritional support and conducts VE and VF tests and rehabilitation for dysphagia improvement, with a strong focus on preventing aspiration pneumonia. With 176 beds—including 92 general beds, 60 medical care beds, and 24 community comprehensive care beds—the hospital provides medical care and support for rehabilitation and home return after acute phase treatment. English language services, parking facilities, and barrier-free accessibility are also featured.
