Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study visualizes the distribution of local nutrient support resources on a geographic information system (GIS) and is to determine the potential demand and sufficiency situation from the space clustering of people and the organization associated with support to be required in building Community NST.The investigation was carried out in secondary care areas and analyzed it using GIS about the distribution of local nutrient support resources.In the secondary care area, it examined a medical office, home nursing station, drugstore, dental clinic, the placement about the nutrient care station, but it was found that a subregion with a little supply was unevenly distributed, and it was thought to be significant to illustrate using GIS.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

地域や環境をとらえる方法として地理情報システム(GIS)が注目されている。GISは都市計画の分野から保健医療の分野まで活用の幅が広がってきている。本研究において、地域の栄養支援資源の地理的な位置関係を可視化し、その空間集積性から潜在的需要や充足状況を考慮することは、専門職だけでなく高齢者にとっても分かりやすい情報提供の方法として期待できる。
