 Working
as a bridge between the U.S.
and Japan, she has educated a
large number of Japanese
healthcare professionals and
supported our efforts to
improve infection control
practices through numerous
seminars and presentations...
I would like to draw special
attention to her presentation
style. As a trainer who
provides infection control
education to nurses, a
consultant who handles Q&A
sessions during individual
hospital visits, and a
clinical specialist who
has a profound knowledge of
surveillance and data
collection, she has taken a
very active role in improving
the quality of our infection
control practice. As can be
seen from her activities, we
have great confidence in her
and need her continued
support.
We look forward to her further
involvement and assistance." (read
