| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the current study, we evaluated the actual state of infection control in elderly care facilities and then developed and evaluated a training program for infection control. After an infection outbreak, we could not rule out the importance of training and of preparing an infection control manual. Furthermore, a learning management system including a visual manual regarding infection control was developed, and the effect of the system was examined. As a result, the training program developed was positively evaluated; however, several needs for improvement were identified with respect to the method of presenting image contents. In the future, means of customizing the infection control training program that take into account the individuality of the care facility staff with diverse backgrounds, including education and employment history, need to be examined.
