Entering and using a nursing care insurance facility

Please ask your Care Manager what kind of facility is suitable for you.
*Those with "support required 1" and "support required 2" cannot enter. In addition, from April 2015, new admissions to special nursing homes for the elderly were limited to people with a nursing care level of 3 or higher.

Nakano Ward Special Nursing Home for the Elderly Priority Admission Guidelines (Opens in a new window.)
* The ward, together with special nursing homes within the ward, has created the Nakano Ward Special Nursing Home Admission Guidelines. In order to ensure "high standards" and "transparency and fairness in the decision-making process", Nakano Ward established common examination standards. Priority is determined by a primary evaluation based on common screening criteria (level of nursing care required, caregiver status, housing status, etc.) and a secondary evaluation based on each home's criteria.
