Neuropsychiatry
Outline
In June, 1972, Professor Nariyoshi Yamaguchi became the first chair of the Department of Neuropsychiatry. The first temporary location was at Asanogawa Hospital. In September, 1974, when 色多多视频 Hospital was founded, the department’s clinical practice started. In those days, the hospital had no closed wards and patients were admitted to the internal medical wards. In April 1976, new wards for the Department of Neuropsychiatry were established, including a closed ward. In April 2009, the Department moved to the present location, which is the 3rd floor of the annex building, with 36 beds). The needs for psychiatrists as Brain Mind Specialists (mental health professionals) has been increasing rapidly. As such, psychiatrists must examine the organic and functional mental disorders from the view point of neuroscience and human science, and diagnose and treat patients scientifically and objectively. Also, psychiatrists are expected to treat somatopsychic diseases, provide psychiatric emergency services and deal with cases of forensic psychiatry. It is our mission to develop clinical psychiatrists who can deal with all types of psychiatric problems, and we hope to produce leaders who can teach and train young doctors with their expertise and experience.
