| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this study was to develop a nursing practice model in which the social contribution of older people requiring long-term care is used to promote their motivation in life, based on the care provided to them while helping them to make social contribution. The derived nursing practice model showed that the starting point for the nurses was establishing a relationship of trust by “being close to the older people’s distress”. Then, nurses enhanced their “sensitivity to true needs”, found the older people’s personality by “continuing nursing practice with help from the people around the older people”, and created care with those people on the idea that “everyone involved are collaborators in improving practice”. Implementing these spiral developmental stages leads to the expression of older people’s will to make social contributions.
