In providing care to patients，the hospital will do the following:
- １．Care will be provided equally to all patients，and will not be negatively influenced by a patient's ethnicity, religious beliefs, citizenship, gender, age, nature of illness, or societal position. All patients will receive the best care that we can provide.
- ２．Other than emergency medical situations, all medical treatments will be administered with patient's informed consent. This means that the diagnosis，the stage of illness, details of treatments，options for treatments, and the risks, benefits, and likelihood of recovery will all be explained to patients in terms that are easy for the patient to understand.
- ●If the explanation you receive is hard to understand，please feel free to ask for another explanation.
- ●When the doctor is explaining the diagnosis, you may have close family members present with you.
- ●If the doctor determines that the patient is unconscious or otherwise unable to make a decision for themselves，they will explain the diagnosis to the patient's family or a designated representative in the case of small children, the doctor will explain the diagnosis to the parents and family of the child.
- ●We will inform patients of the name of the iIlness that they have been diagnosed with, including cancer. For those patients who wish not to be informed of having cancer, please inform the doctor prior to your examination.
- ●If patient wishes to make a formal request to see their medical case record, they can do so at the Central Reception.
- ３．To the best our ability, honor the requests made by our patients. Please feel free to make requests regarding treatments, examinations, the way care is given, meals, and anything else related to the medical care that we provide. We will do our best to honor those requests. However, the hospital will not be able to honor requests that are deemed illegal, unsafe, or unsound medical practice. With the exception of emergency situations, if a patient feels that we are unable to meet the requests that they are making, we will do our best to find the patient a medical facility that can meet their special needs.
- ●If a patient or their family member would like to discuss ideas, make a complaint, or ask more questions about the patient's care, please inquire at the Conference Room.
- ４．We will take in to account experimental medical treatments as an option for treatment. Our doctors will include experimental medical treatments in the list of possible treatments that are available to a patient. If a patient is interested in using experimental medical treatment, we will explain the details of the treatment, how it is different from previous medical treatment, and the associated risks and benefits. If you do not wish to try experimental medical treatments in dealing with your illness, feel free to inform the doctor.
- ５．The hospital will prioritize the protection of personal information. The only times that the hospital will release a patient's personal information is with explicit permission from the patient, when the law explicitly requires the information, or when another medical care provider requires it to give accurate and required treatment.
