Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research was conducted in the frail elderly population to develop, institute, and assess a visit-based support program by care prevention supporters. The program consisted of 5 classroom sessions and 5 practice visit lessons. In order to evaluate the proficiency of supporters, they completed self-assessment surveys on comprehension at two time points, before and after the lecture. In order to illustrate the growth process of the supporters, group interviews were conducted on 4 occasions. In the result, there was a considerable improvement in self-assessment scores on their understanding of the mental and physical states of the elderly, and skills in communication and visiting. Furthermore, by acknowledging the growth in supporter qualifications and effectiveness of the home visit-type support program in the frail elderly population, this led to supporter motivation in home visit-type support activities for the community-dwelling elderly.
