Outline of Final Research Achievements

The aim of this study was to easily carry out an emergency informing, even if an elderly person, who is a user is located at any place in the residence. In 23 wards of Tokyo, I asked six wards for study cooperation in order with many staying alone elderly people and investigated it using questionnaire in three wards where the consent was provided soon. As a result, I obtained an answer from 502 peaple. Every each ward, I analyzed it about the characteristic of the staying alone elderly person who used emergency call system and reported a summary in each ward.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

在宅医療や看取りケア質向上の推進が図られる今日において、緊急時に助けを呼ぶことが出来ない環境を放置することは、「在宅療養者が安心して地域で暮らす社会作り」の根幹を揺るがす事態である。本研究成果により、日中独居も含め、高齢者が自ら助けを呼べる環境が整備されることは、緊急時に早期治療を受け、後遺症を最小限にとどめることに貢献できる。このことは、高騰する医療費削減、入院日数の短縮化に繋がるだけでなく、在宅療養者が住み慣れたわが家で自立して暮らしていく上でとても重要である。
