A characteristic of mental illness is that, unlike physical illnesses, it is difficult to see. The patient's complaints are earnest, but they are not conveyed to those around them. And sometimes the patient himself does not realize he has a mental illness. The job of Yamagata Sakuramachi Hospital is to recognize and treat such illnesses, and this treatment is carried out with full consideration of the living conditions surrounding the patient, such as family relationships and work environment.

Mental illness reflects the times. It is a microcosm of modern problems such as dementia associated with aging, bullying, abuse, social withdrawal, and mental disorders caused by the work environment. Treatment cannot be achieved with drugs alone. For patients to live as proper members of society, they need financial backing, a home to live in, and people around them who can care for and advise them. Our hospital aims to provide team medical care and rehabilitation through collaboration with health, welfare, and nursing care. Each staff member will utilize their specialized knowledge to provide treatment.

The hospital specializes in psychiatry and psychosomatic medicine.
