| Research Abstract |
Our study targetted the local governments in order to investigate how much the health and social welfare policy for the aged was practiced in last three years. Our findings are as follows : (1) There are differences in health and social service between local governments. The smaller local governments have more difficulties to put the policy into practice, and the larger governments have problems of shortage in special nursing home for the aged and the waiting lists get longer. (2) The problems of flnance, site for a building and manpower all lead to delay in practice of the policy. The question is whether local governments seriously understand the residents' needs and make every effort to improve the health and social service, with preparation for increase in responsibility and expense. The problems mentioned above are factors that create differences in progress of the policy between the local governments.
In addition, our case studies have been done in Takanosu-cho in Akita and Nishikawa-machi in Yamagata. We found in two municipalities in common that they are urgently reacting the residents' needs under the mayers' leadership and the staffs' positive attitudes towards an increasing number of the aged.
