Takiyama Hospital resubmits improvement plan after assault on inpatient; director and others to resign. The plan calls for the hospital director and chairperson to resign as they are responsible for neglecting the management and review of the medical system.

The hospital said it has not provided sufficient support for discharge from hospital, and will establish a system to confirm patients' intentions to leave the hospital and support their lives in the community. This will lead to the reconstruction of the area, the hospital said.
