Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we focused on the actual condition of the elderly care facility management contributing to it while foreseeing the penetration of the normative idea of regional comprehensive care. Therefore, we compared the elderly care facilities management in the United States with Japanese special management and extracted the differences.
Residents' sense of community has become administratively "outside regional" because the facilities in the United States value the existence of the option to receive diverse care. On the other hand, Japanese facilities have become “locally limited” administrative bodies, as they place value in care that is consistent with the uneven social history and climate. In the United States, managerial management emphasizes "extensive expertise", while Japan emphasizes "expansive expertise" due to the on-site ability of care workers.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

日本の特養経営において、ケア現場における人手不足、ケア職の離職率の高さ、介護職の専門性への認識の濃淡等が指摘されてきた。地域のケア拠点としての特養経営に着目する意義は、日本のケア現場が抱える諸問題の相対化、メタ認知にある。制度も歴史も文化も異なるからこそ日米比較アプローチにより、特養ケア現場が抱える諸問題について、これまでの文脈から脱文脈化したうえで、これからに向けて再文脈化ができる可能性がある。
