Bridge Inc. Opens Three New Nursing Care Locations

Bridge Inc. (Headquarters: Kochi City, Kochi Prefecture), a provider of home care services, opened three new locations in June 2026. This move accelerates the expansion of its bases across Japan in pursuit of the vision: 'A society where life in rural areas is as rich as in urban areas.'

Three new locations opened: - Care Plan Center En Mitoyo (Mitoyo, Kagawa Prefecture) - En Visiting Nursing Station Kumamoto (Kumamoto City, Kumamoto Prefecture) - En Visiting Nursing Station Shimanto (Shimanto, Kochi Prefecture: Upgraded from satellite)

Total bases after expansion: - Visiting Nursing: 20 bases across 14 prefectures (including Kochi, Tokushima, Kagawa, Ehime, Tokyo, Kanagawa, Ibaraki, Kyoto, Fukuoka, Kagoshima, Kumamoto, Oita, Saga, and Okinawa). - Care Plan Centers: 2 bases across 2 prefectures (Kochi, Kagawa). - Day Services: 2 bases in 1 prefecture (Kochi). - Travel Support: 1 base in 1 prefecture (Tokyo, available for nationwide dispatch).

The purpose of Bridge's nationwide expansion is not merely scaling its business. It stems from the urgent desire to prevent people from having to give up on their own way of life due to where they live. By eliminating disparities in home care environments, they aim to create a society where everyone can choose their own path to happiness.
