Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to develop an educational program for nurses that enables daily medical assistance for children with developmental disabilities. It is to clarify the way of support for children with developmental disabilities and their parents who visit various clinical departments not only for pediatrics but also for daily health problems. We confirmed the need to know the support method by presenting cases based on the characteristics of clinical departments by developing and implementing an educational program "Basic" for nurses in charge of multiple clinical departments. Based on these, we have created a clinical support program "Clinical Department Separate Edition" in pediatrics, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, surgery / orthopedics, and dentistry / oral surgery.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

発達障害児およびその傾向がある子どもの日常的な診療援助を可能にするために、看護師および医療スタッフが具体的にどのような支援をすべきかを明らかにした。看護師が教育プログラムが活用されることで、診療所に勤務する看護師の発達障害児に対する障害特性の理解が深まり、診療場面における発達障害児が感じている苦痛の軽減および合理的配慮が受けられることが期待できる。
