Become a speech-language-hearing therapist at Shimane Rehabilitation College!

A job that helps people live a fulfilling life by providing support in "speaking, listening, and eating."

Head of the Speech-Language-Hearing DepartmentHonda Manami

This department has a "language counseling room." We ask users for their cooperation in classes and provide more practical classes so that students can play an active role in hospitals, facilities, and special needs schools. We also invite experts in sign language, music therapy, and animal therapy as lecturers to train "speech-language-hearing therapists" who have acquired a wide range of techniques. In particular, there is a growing demand for "speech-language-hearing therapists" who can sign language, and the opportunities for them to work are expanding.

The curriculum that can only be learned here is appealing.

I thought that speech-language-hearing therapists, who support people who can no longer speak or eat in their daily lives, were very cool, so I decided to become a speech-language-hearing therapist. I thought that there was a curriculum that could only be learned here, and that it was the right school for me, so I went to this school. I'm not good at studying, so I try to make time to study every day. In the future, I want to become a speech-language-hearing therapist who can make rehabilitation a little more enjoyable for patients who find it painful.
If you have even the slightest interest in rehabilitation, please come and join us at our open campus.

I was interested in working in the medical field, so after attending the open campus of Shimane Rehabilitation College, I decided to become a speech-language-hearing therapist.FourI thought that this school, which is a 2-year program, would definitely help me acquire knowledge and skills. I was also impressed by how friendly the teachers were. It seems that I made the right choice, and now I am living a fulfilling life. There is a lot to remember, so reviewing every day is essential. If there is something I don't understand, I make sure to ask my friends or teachers right away. In the future, I want to become a "speech-language-hearing therapist" who can empathize with the feelings of patients.

I learned about the profession of "speech-language-hearing pathologist" from a drama I watched in high school, and it became my motivation to aim for it. At "Rehabilitation College Shimane," the relationship between teachers and students is close, and it is an environment where it is easy to consult about anything, so I have been taking care of them from time to time even after graduating. Currently, I am in charge of patients with aphasia, higher brain dysfunction, swallowing disorders, etc. Although I sometimes hit a wall, I will never forget the joy I felt when the first patient I looked after said "I'm glad it was you" when he was discharged from the hospital. I think it is important to be sympathetic to the vague anxiety of being unable to do things that were previously taken for granted, to notice small changes, and share them with the patient. Although I am still inexperienced, I would like to continue to work hard without forgetting the feeling of moving forward together with the patients.
