Outline of Final Research Achievements

As a result of qualitatively and quantitatively analyzing the contents of past activities in the Nursing Consultation Room of the Multiple Chemical Sensitivity(MCS), we made problems of "name of consultation room", "economic problem", "manpower shortage" and so on. There was a bias in the contents of consultation and nursing support as background. There was no document on nursing support for MCS, and there was a lack of basic research to construct support theory. Therefore, we are currently preparing evidence by starting experiments to derive nursing support based on scientific evidence, in order to establish support theory in this field.
In order to achieve the object of this research, we concluded that it is necessary to investigate the actual situation of MCS patients, health survey of MCS patients, and educating nurses who can support MCS patients during home care.
