| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to discuss the feasibility of mobile hospitals in Japan, we visited and interviewed several examples of hospital ship, hospital car, hospital train, moving hospital, dental car and temporary hospital made of containers from Japan, India, US and South Africa. We found that core function of mobile hospital is to bring essential medical equipment like surgical operation unit because examining, screening and accommodation space as well as energy are available on site. Not to employ medical staff is also important to save wages and keep their skill well in their acute hospitals.
