| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An anonymous postal survey targeting 1,140 elderly individuals living in areas with heavy snowfall was conducted; responses from 570 individuals were analyzed. Food diversity scores were three points or below on a ten-point scale for 55.4% of the respondents. By food type, a small percentage of respondents ate seaweed and meat “almost daily.” Group interviews of resident representatives and experts were also conducted. This resulted in the extraction of five categories of issues related to elderly individuals maintaining good nutrition and dietary behavior. These categories included securing a means of autonomously going shopping, securing a supporter for meal services, and others.
Recommended services include providing transportation to enable elderly individuals to go shopping and pick out ingredients themselves, creating opportunities for elderly individuals to eat meals together, and providing supporters to aid in meal preparation.
