The remote island of Osaki Shimojima faces a chronic shortage of medical and nursing care services.

With a home-visit nursing station on the island, nurses assist residents in navigating telemedicine, introduce IoT healthcare services, promote medical and digital literacy, and foster social interaction.

They're equipped with bicycles, first-aid kits, medicine, and other items so they can provide basic healthcare and assist in emergencies as well.
