| Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present study was to clarify related to adaptation among relocated elderly community residents and care system. In 2003,the difficulties and coping for relocated elderly in the activity of district welfare commissioners were clarified. In 2004, Questionnaires were delivered by mail to 731 elderly who relocated to a northern urban area. Analysis was performed on valid responses obtained from 299 individuals who indicated feeling either "adapted" or "not adapted". From the analysis of correlations between residents' level of adaptation and changing of living arrangement, health status, and social support, the following results were obtained. Seventy-seven percent of respondents indicated they felt "adapted" to the new environment while 23% felt "not adapted". Results of multivariate logistic analysis showed that the factors correlated with feeling "adapted" or "not adapted" were knowledge of the new area, social support, voluntarily relocating, financial difficulties. In 2005, it was analyzed that the length of residence and health status for the elderly who use home care services in long-term care insurance were correlated. The length of residence were not correlated with health status, but correlated with using of day services. It's important for elderly to prepare before relocation, and to talk about relocation with family, and keeping social support.
