In order to accept patients suffering from sudden illness, accidents, or injuries, an emergency outpatient unit has been established for nighttime and holidays.
The hospital’s emergency outpatient unit coordinates with medical institutions in the area in and around Tachikawa to provide emergency care primarily to patients with comparatively severe symptoms who require surgery, examination, or emergency hospitalization.
If you have a primary care physician, please contact them first. If your symptoms are mild,the Tachikawa Holiday Clinicis available, so please make use of this service.
Please be sure to contact us before seeking consultation.Telephone: 042-523-3131 (Main Number)
● | This hospital is a designated secondary emergency medical center, and as a rule, treatment is prioritized for patients transported by ambulance and patients who are severely ill or in critical condition. For this reason, the order in which patients receive consultation may be subject to change. |
---|---|
● | Only emergency examination is performed during holidays and nighttime. As there are some tests that can only be performed on weekdays, if symptoms persist, it is recommended that you seek an outpatient consultation on a weekday afternoon. |
● | As it is an emergency measure, only a single day’s dose (or an amount sufficient until the next weekday) of medication will be prescribed. |
● | Doctors from various clinical fields serve as attending doctors for emergency outpatient unit on a rotating basis. Depending on the symptoms, it may be difficult to provide treatment, so please be sure to contact us in advance. |
Additional Fees for Consultations Outside Consultation Hours (scheduled to begin September 1st)
Beginning at 17:15 on September 1st, 2017 (Fri.), in addition to the consultation fee, there may be a separate charge for out-of-hours consultations.
As a secondary emergency medical center, this hospital accepts high-urgency patients requiring hospitalization 24 hours a day.
However, as lower-urgency patients also seek consultations from the holiday and nighttime emergency outpatient unit, this can be a hindrance to its primary objective of rendering prompt treatment to severely ill patients.
In order to alleviate these conditions, the hospital requires lower-urgency patients to pay a separate fee of 5,000 JPY (plus tax) for patient-selected out-of-hours medical services in addition to the consultation fee.
However, severely ill patients who require hospitalization and patients who require emergency prescriptions (below, “patients exempt from the additional fee”) are not required to pay this fee.
We ask for your understanding regarding this fee for patient-selected out-of-hours medical services, so that we may provide safe and high quality medical care to all patients.
