The "Keio University School of Medicine Family Support System" was established in July 2026, and we have now launched a website that compiles relevant information.

A major feature of this system is that it is available not only to full-time physicians and faculty members enrolled in the School of Medicine, but also to part-time physicians, graduate students, and undergraduate students. Regardless of employment status or position, we aim to support the balance between child care support and clinical practice, research, education, and studies, creating an environment where everyone can continue their careers with peace of mind.

The operation of this system is entrusted to the NPO "Childcare Network Piccolo," which has an extensive track record in child care support at university hospitals. By leveraging their understanding of the irregular working patterns unique to healthcare professionals and their experience in community-based support activities, we hope to build a system that can be used with confidence.
