🌸 看取りに寄せて:10年の歩みを振り返って

10年前、私は「住み慣れた我が家で、愛する人たちに囲まれて最期を迎えるお手伝いがしたい」という強い想いから、病院を離れてニコニコホームケアを立ち上げました。この節目を迎え、改めてその原点を深く振り返っています。

先日、利用者のS様がご自宅で穏やかに旅立たれました。最期の瞬間までご主人がその手を握り、温もりと愛、そして安心感に包まれながらの旅立ちでした。

ご逝去の1週間ほど前から、私たちはVCHのパリアティブケア(緩和ケア)チームと密に連携し、ご家族の希望に沿った準備を進めてきました。大切な方を失う悲しみは計り知れません。それでも、ご家族と私たちスタッフが互いに「ありがとう」と言い合えたこと、そして後悔のないケアを届けられたことは、大きな救いとなりました。

もし病院のままだったなら、これほど穏やかでアットホームなお別れは難しかったかもしれません。

「死」について語ることは決して簡単ではありません。しかし、「最期を自宅で、尊厳と愛に満ちた形で穏やかに迎える」という選択肢があることを、これからも多くの方に伝えていきたいです。

心からの優しさと献身さで、この美しい看取りを支えてくれたスタッフの皆さんに深く感謝します。そして、人生の最も大切な時間にニコニコホームケアを信頼し、関わらせてくださったS様のご家族の皆様、本当にありがとうございました。

S様のご冥福を心よりお祈り申し上げます。✨

🌸 Reflections on End-of-Life Care: A 10-Year Journey

Ten years ago, I left the hospital setting to found Nikoniko Home Care with a singular mission: to help people spend their final days in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by those they love. Reaching this milestone has given me a beautiful opportunity to reflect on why we started.

Recently, our client, S, passed away peacefully at home. Until the very last moment, S’s spouse held their hand, ensuring S left this world enveloped in warmth, love, and reassurance.

A week prior, we collaborated closely with the VCH Palliative Care Team to honor the family's wishes. While the loss of a loved one is deeply painful, being able to say “thank you” to one another—among the family and our care team—knowing we provided care without regrets, brought us immense comfort.

Had S remained in a hospital, such an intimate, peaceful farewell might not have been possible.

Talking about death is never easy. However, I want to continue sharing that there is a choice—to spend your final days peacefully at home, with dignity and love.

I am profoundly grateful to our incredible staff, whose compassion and dedication made this beautiful journey possible. Thank you to S’s family for trusting Nikoniko Home Care and allowing us to be part of one of life’s most meaningful moments. Rest in peace, S. ✨

We’re so grateful to MLA Anne Kang for joining us and making time in her busy schedule. Her presence meant so much to all of us. Over the years, her genuine care, encouragement, and steady support for our community have touched countless lives.

Her heartfelt words at our celebration brought warmth and joy to everyone, and it was an honor to share this special milestone with her. Thank you for her kindness, leadership, and for always being such a wonderful supporter of our community. Our friendship will last forever!

Nikoniko Home Care proudly marked its 10-year anniversary with a grand celebration at the Stanley Park Pavilion on Friday, May 1st, 2026. The event was filled with special guests, including our dear friend, MLA Anne Kang, Minister of Tourism, Arts, Culture and Sport of BC, who kindly joined us despite her busy schedule ahead of FIFA. Her friendship and support mean the world to us.

Surrounded by so many wonderful people, we enjoyed an anniversary video, brain exercises, the Coroyawa cushion mat, and a lively sing-along. It was heartwarming to reconnect with familiar faces, share memories, and look forward to the next decade.

With its beautiful venue, warm hospitality, and stunning decorations, it was truly one of Nikoniko’s most memorable celebrations, and we are so grateful to everyone who has supported us over the years.

10 Years of Heartfelt Care: Nikoniko Home Care

「時を得た者は栄え、時を失うものは亡ぶ」
列子の言葉ですが、この「時」は「人」や「愛」とも言い換えられると私は信じています。

介護が必要とされるこの時代、私たちはその大きな流れの中に立つことができました。すべての会社が10年続くわけではありません。その違いは、どれだけ「志い」を乗せられたか。

派手な仕事ではありません。しかし、ふとした笑顔や日々の小さな変化に、私たちは最高の喜びを感じます。AIの時代と言われますが、人が人を想う「人間くささ」こそが、私たちの価値です。

平坦な道ではありませんでしたが、支えてくださった皆様と、現場で踏ん張ってくれたスタッフのおかげで今があります。これからの10年も、私たちは「人間くさく」あり続けます。

10年後、また皆様と笑顔でお会いできることを楽しみにしています!

"Those who seize the right time will prosper; those who lose it will fade."
According to the philosopher Liezi, timing is everything. But I believe this "time" can also mean "people" or "love."

Nikoniko Home Care has reached its 10th anniversary because we stood in the right moment with the right heart. Not every company lasts a decade; the difference lies in how much soul you pour into the work.

Our work isn't glamorous. It’s found in small smiles and quiet daily progress. In this age of AI, I believe the true value of care lies in being "human"—in the raw, sincere connection between people.

It hasn't been an easy road, but we are here thanks to our supporters and our dedicated staff. We promise to stay "human" in everything we do.

Here’s to the next 10 years! I look forward to seeing your smiles then.

The Coroya demo draws many viewers. People see how effective it is simply by placing it and preventing fractures from falling.
