| Research Abstract |
he purpose of this study was to develop a comprehensive environmental assistance program to improve the quality of life (QOL) of elderly who require home care assistance. A comprehensive environmental questionnaire(CEQ)was used to examine the efficacy of various interventions by evaluating QOL before and after the interventions. Interventions (maximun 3 month period)were provided to 12 subjects who were using in-home services supported by nursing care insurance, and significant changes were observed in life satisfaction and abilities to perform activities of daily living (ADL). By consolidating the interventions carried out for the ll subjects whose QOL improved, it was possible to devise a comprehensive environmental assistance program.
