Our
Starting Point
From its founding, ALCARE’s point of departure has been the phrase kishu
busshin-“a demon’s hand and a Buddha’s heart.” ALCARE
was established with the purpose of contributing to society
in the field of health and welfare services.
Since then, we have carried out our mission day by day, continuously
improving and enhancing a medical engineering research institute centered
on the needs of the sick and disabled, while striving at all times to
maintain a balance between compassion and the practical know-how required
for a stable and enduring business enterprise.
ALCARE’s founder was particularly fond of this statement of medical
ethics: “When the Buddha’s heart commands a demon’s
hand, it emits, by way of the demon’s hand, an eternal radiance.” At
ALCARE we continue to honor this ethic as an essential part.
