Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
外出が困難な高齢者は、地域のプログラムやサービスへの参加が難しく、運動不足や筋力低下、認知の低下などの健康問題が生じやすく、定期的な医療やリハビリテーションへのアクセスも制限される。必然的に自宅に閉じこもりがちであり、心理的なストレスやうつ病のリスクが高まる。これに対する訪問活動は、社会的孤立を防止し、健康状態のモニタリングができ、生活状況や抱えている困難などを把握して心理的な支援ができる。前期高齢者は対象の後期高齢者との世代の近さから、共有できる貴重な経験を持っており、サポーターとして 高い共感力を発揮できる。これによって対象者が人生の価値を確認でき、孤立感を減らし、つながりを実感できる。
