Koseikai

What Koseikai does

Koseikai (社会福祉法人 幸生会) is a Sendai-based Social Welfare Corporation (社会福祉法人) founded in February 1996 that operates an integrated portfolio of elderly care, disability welfare, and child welfare services. The elderly care segment comprises three special nursing homes (水泉荘, 泉クラシック, 栗生ハウス), plus short-stay, day care, care house, home care support office, regional comprehensive support center, and the newly opened Care Plan Center Roots. The disability welfare segment includes employment continuation support (Type B) and daily life assistance offices (ほうゆう, ぱーとなー), two disability group homes (すいせんほーむ南中山 and らすかる), after-school day services, and the disability consultation support office Sign. The child welfare segment comprises nine certified kodomoen and nursery facilities operating under the すいせん series brand across Sendai wards, with capacities ranging from 29 to 142 children per facility, plus one corporate on-site nursery.

The organization employs 531 staff (as of April 1, 2024) and is led by second-generation chairman Kanamori Yorio, who took office in June 2001. Reported FY2023 (令和5年度) service activity revenue is ¥3,012 million against total assets of ¥3,655 million. Revenue is generated through fee-for-service billing against three Japanese public insurance and subsidy systems — long-term care insurance (介護保険), disability welfare services, and childcare subsidies — with user co-payments set by statutory schedules based on care need level and income. Government insurance and municipal subsidies constitute the dominant payer mechanism. Pricing is not published on the website; prospective users are routed through care managers (ケアマネジャー) or municipal offices.

Distribution is exclusively direct service delivery at owned and operated facilities; there is no third-party channel, franchise, or digital distribution. Customer recruitment for staff uses a multi-channel approach combining the corporate website, Mynavi recruitment platform, email inquiries, periodic in-person hiring examinations, facility tours, and online/in-person information sessions with shuttle bus service from Sendai Station and Fukushi-daimae Station. The organization holds government-licensed designated status across all three welfare categories, received the Imperial Monetary Gift from the Emperor of Japan in February 2023, and maintains a strategic partnership with JR East for multiple co-branded childcare facilities. There is no proprietary technology platform; operations rely on standard administrative tools.
