About
Tendo City Hospital, located about a 10-minute walk from the JR Tendo Station West Exit in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, is a hospital providing community-based healthcare primarily centered on internal medicine. With a history of approximately 70 years, it functions as a community-focused medical institution that mainly accepts sub-acute and recovery-phase patients while collaborating with neighboring high-acute and acute-care hospitals. The hospital places particular emphasis on regional medical cooperation, accepting patients who have completed treatment but are anxious about returning home, as well as those wishing to continue treatment in their familiar local area, with a system in place to connect continued treatment with subsequent life support. Additionally, the hospital actively accepts emergency patients under appropriate triage, playing a role in supporting regional emergency care. Furthermore, by strengthening services for health checkups, comprehensive medical screenings, and various cancer screenings, it also focuses on disease prevention and early detection. With English-speaking staff available and credit card and electronic payment options, the hospital is well-equipped to accommodate international visitors. The facility is barrier-free with parking for visitors. Access is also available via public transportation such as route buses and reservation-based shared taxis, and the hospital is closed on weekends, holidays, and year-end/New Year period.
