In the field, there is a specialized education organization for that purpose, and in order to obtain sufficient practical training effects, education for the role of simulated patients is thoroughly conducted, and training as a professional is being carried out. In this program, we will specially hire local simulated patients and conduct practical training online . This is a very valuable opportunity, so I hope that as many people as possible can experience it.

Asian countries are expected to follow suit, and the future of medical care in Japan is uncertain.
