Features and Description of Medical Care

【Operations】
The pharmacy department actively engages in team-based medical care. Pharmacy staff are assigned to various wards, contributing to safe and effective pharmacotherapy through their ward duties and participating in "team-based medical care" utilizing their expertise. Additionally, in outpatient settings, pharmacists are actively involved in cancer chemotherapy teams to enhance the effectiveness and safety of cancer chemotherapy. Collaborating with other healthcare staff to implement effective and safe drug therapy is fundamental to providing high-quality medical care.
We also conduct clinical pharmacological research focusing on appropriate patient pharmacotherapy and provide basic and clinical pharmacology education to medical, dental, and nursing students. Furthermore, we offer clinical practice training for pharmacy students and clinical pharmacology and medical pharmacy education for graduate students.
