The Juntendo University Main Hospital was founded in 1838, and was the first hospital in Japan to adopt Westernised medical practice. It’s prowess has continued over centuries, and was the first Japanese medical facility to be awarded accreditation by the Joint Commission International, an American not-for-profit organisation that assesses safety and quality care standards.
