By reviewing related literature, and conducting interviews of nursing/care managers, care workers with experiences in accepting foreign staff, foreign care workers, and intercultural nursing experts in order to identify guideline components, the guideline consisted of general components and components for each staff level was developed. The guideline was revised by conducting expert panel for practical uses.
