| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
By focusing on the changes that can be made to houses to establish a point from which bereaved families can return to their communities, with the aim of clarifying the course of house restoration from a nursing to a living environment, we conducted a questionnaire survey of affected families, and a case-based survey to understand the space available in their homes after undertaking the long-term at-home care for an ALS patient.
1) After the death of an ALS patient, the way in which a house is restored can be roughly classified into four types, namely, restoration, partial restoration, reconstruction, and no change. Most bereaved families undertook reconstruction. This trend was more frequently seen in urban LDK-type houses. 2) Family members, who had lost their spouses after long-term at-home care, showed a marked tendency to use a living room or habitable room adjacent to the living room as the room for Buddhist rituals or to display photos of their deceased spouse.
