| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Much attention is given to approaches to place proper regard on the wishes of the elderly care recipients. Of the patients enrolled in this research, 44% discussed their end-of-life care with families and friends, 12% articulated their wishes in writing, while 48% did neither. We conducted a practical intervention research by utilizing a tool named “Life Design Notebook”, which encourages the patients to envisage the end of their lives and also to communicate their advance medical directives. 114 local clinic patients were given this notebook, but only half documented their wishes with regard to the end-of-life care. We later interviewed the patients to investigate the psychosocial aspect to this outcome, and observed that they had the tendency to prioritize the circumstances of their families. They were reluctant to specify their living wills out of modesty, and the willingness to write them down in the Notebook reflected the relationship that they maintained with the families.
