Abstract

The shortfall in human resources for the nursing profession is one of the most important issues facing Japan's aging society. To solve the problem of shortages in the nursing field, Japan has enacted and promoted various policies to recruit foreign caregivers. As a result, the interaction of different cultures with Japanese gerontology has a serious impact on Japanese gerontology, and foreign nationals regularly encounter a series of cultural conflicts, including language barriers, lifestyle, and ideological beliefs, during the development of their work. This article will examine the background, development, and current status of foreign healthcare professionals in Japan, and will focus on Chinese healthcare professionals. It will analyze the cultural conflicts that arise when foreign healthcare professionals are involved in healthcare for the elderly in Japan, and study how Japan is helping foreign healthcare professionals to integrate and coexist in the country.
