In the Health Room of the Girls' Senior High School, multiple school doctors work on a rotating basis. This time, we spoke with a school doctor who is also an alumna of the school about her thoughts on being appointed to the Girls' Senior High School as a graduate.
**********
I have been serving as a school doctor in the Girls' Senior High School Health Room since this fiscal year, and I would like to take this opportunity to talk about the Health Room from the perspective of an alumna.
I entered this school from Keio Chutobu Junior High School and subsequently pursued my studies at the Keio University School of Medicine.
I sometimes run into teachers who took care of me, which makes me truly feel like I have returned to my alma mater.
During my days as a high school student, I had a wonderful time with my unique classmates, participating in various events and studying, and I have many very fond memories.
I am very happy and honored to be able to contribute even a little to my alma mater.
The Girls' Senior High School Health Room is a calm environment where a public health nurse is permanently stationed, and school counselors also visit twice a week. Multiple school doctors are also in charge depending on the day of the week.
Students can feel free to visit anytime they are in trouble, not only when they are feeling unwell or injured, but also when they feel anxious.
I have only just arrived in April and have had few opportunities to interact with the students yet, but if there are students interested in medical sciences or the work of a doctor, I would be happy to talk to them from my position as an alumna.
I believe the strong connection with alumni is one of the unique strengths of an integrated school system.
