There was a journal called "Noro" that was created by the employees of Nishimoto-kai Medical Corporation, to which they contributed their writings. The first volume of the journal was followed by the second volume, which mainly describes the founding of Nishimoto-kai Yasura Hospital, the establishment of the social rehabilitation facility "Kibbutzumura" (the name of the management body was "Noro Kyodotai"), the state of its operation, and sometimes the Nishimoto-kai "Kyoiku Igaku Kenkyujo" (Institute of Education and Medicine), etc., all of which are based on the late father, Junjiro Nishimoto's( À¾Ëܽ缡Ϻ) words, "We educate people with disabilities to be independent rather than locking them in a cage, and we provide them with autonomy training and occupational therapy. The staff's stories reveal his basical philosophy,"the integration of the theoretical research and its practical activity of educating people with disabilities so that they can become independent, providing them with autonomy training and occupational therapy, and forming and managing a kibbutz village where each person has his or her own role after being discharged. Theoretical research was conducted at the "Research Institute of Educational Medicine," which was established at a different location, and the results were compiled in the "Research on Educational Medicine," which was donated monthly to the National Library for preservation.
Now that Junjiro has passed away and his successor, his younger son, has suffered a cerebrovascular accident, the will and achievements of the institute are attributed to the patients themselves, but the Nishimoto-Kai Medical Corporation has gone beyond the framework of a general "mental hospital" to become an advanced institution that has embodied milestones from the education of handicapped children to their reintegration into society since as early as 1953. This is one of the important tasks of our Institute for Environmental Education and Medical Research.
Now, let's take a begin to looking arround the "Noro" world.
