Our particular focus is on extending the healthy lifespan of elderly individuals receiving home care by establishing a smart home care system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-6fac95e215fa9edc6d648d3aebdef607\"> In Japan\u2019s super-aging society, medical care is shifting from hospitals to homes and facilities, driven by the promotion of the regional comprehensive care system. Given the shortage of medical and caregiving manpower, it is crucial to help home care patients avoid becoming bedridden or fixed sitting, ensuring they live safely and comfortably. Monitoring through sensor technology and ICT, and early detection of abnormalities, play a vital role. This requires the establishment of a new smart home care system that accumulates data obtained through sensor technology and ICT, detects signs of abnormalities with AI, and sends data to hospitals or home nursing stations for remote or visiting care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-bece129bb2520f268eb2b6e43782923f\">At Ishikawa Prefectural Nursing University, we actively promote industry\u2013academia collaboration. In addition to the Department of Well-being Nursing, we have established the Department of Bio-engineering Nursing, a collaborative research course launched in April 2023. Furthermore, in April 2025, the Ishikawa Prefecture Endowed Course \u201cDisaster Nursing Practice and Science\u201d was established.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-270386e86e47a1703f43873c22136c36\">Through these initiatives, we aim to implement technologies that support both independence and autonomy, which are essential for achieving well-being, in the Noto region of Ishikawa Prefecture. By doing so, we seek to extend the well-being life expectancy of older adults receiving home care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/3b68902f15300d26b32a37d51f4b7611-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1679\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/3b68902f15300d26b32a37d51f4b7611-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/3b68902f15300d26b32a37d51f4b7611-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/3b68902f15300d26b32a37d51f4b7611-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/3b68902f15300d26b32a37d51f4b7611-670x377.png 670w, https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/3b68902f15300d26b32a37d51f4b7611.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the Department of Well-being Nursing, we aim to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":490,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-en.php","meta":{"footnotes":"","_wp_rev_ctl_limit":""},"class_list":["post-499","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=499"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/499\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1681,"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/499\/revisions\/1681"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/490"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ishikawa-nu.ac.jp\/well-being\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
