Tenrikyo's Own Standing Description of the Tenri Yorozu-sodansho Foundation and Ikoi-no-Ie Hospital

This is Tenrikyo Church Headquarters' own healthcare page, published on its official website, tenrikyo.or.jp. Its strength is that it names a specific founding year and department structure for the religion's own hospital and foundation, details a reader could in principle check against outside accounts. Its limit is that it remains the religion's own voluntary self-description of its own institution rather than an independent audit or outside review, so a claim about the hospital's wider medical reputation or outcomes needs a source examining that from outside the organization.

Tier 2: the religion's own institutional website describing its own hospital and foundation, a voluntary self-description rather than an independent audit, though it names a specific founding year and department structure a reader could check against outside accounts.
Notes
Tenrikyo Church Headquarters' own website, read directly, stating the Tenri Yorozu-sodansho Foundation "was established in 1935 in order to explore all possible means to relieve human suffering, while retaining the Tenrikyo teachings as the fundamental basis," and that the Foundation established the 900-bed Ikoi-no-Ie Hospital in 1966, comprising a Medical Treatment Department, a Religious Guidance Department and a Service Department, aiming at "the realization of the Joyous Life through the close collaboration between medicine and religion." Classed own-published-statistics: the religion's own current institutional description.
