	Message	Here at the Regional Comprehensive Care Training Center, we plan to develop a curriculum that enables Nagasaki University and Junshin Catholic University students to learn the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration and integrative diagnostic skills during their undergraduate education. First year medical students will have the opportunity to participate in echo training, medical device training (ECG, etc.), and wearing elderly simulation suits. We hope that you look forward to and have fun in the hands-on classes, because they will be extremely useful in future training and lectures. We will support all our students so that you can image your future at an early stage and you can actively participate in the trainings. Let’s work hard together! (Please give us your feedback if you have a suggestion on trainings that you would like to experience.)
