| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An investigation of the outbreak mechanism of elderly abuse revealed that when the disorders of elderly people exacerbated and they became more heavily dependent on their caretakers, it heightened the caretakers’ stress, leading to an outbreak of elderly abuse. A self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted with health workers. There were 207 subjects, 62% of them were caseworkers and 27% were nurses. The result of the survey showed that 72.5% of the subjects answered that they had provided the support for a case of abuse within the past year. As an outcome, only 25.6% of abuse cases disappeared by their supports.
More than half of health workers said they were exhausted and felt depressed. The action program for health workers is for prevention of abuse, actions which should be taken at outbreak, and mental and physical health maintenance for health workers themselves.
