| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted a 3-year longitudinal survey of people with dementia requiring level 1 care and an individual survey of home-visit nursing users with the aim of developing indicators for introducing home-visit nursing care for patients with mild dementia. The following research results were obtained.
In the group using home-visit nursing, the deterioration of the required level of care was delayed, and the decline in cognitive function was also suppressed.From the perspective of home-visit nurses and long-term care support specialists, it has become clear that the involvement of visiting nurses from the mild stage can help maintain and improve health, including preventing dementia from becoming more severe.Through longitudinal surveys, individual case studies, and opinion exchanges at workshops, we created indicators for the introduction of home-visit nursing for mild dementia and distributed them as a booklet to people interested in dementia.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
自宅療養する方とその家族の身近で支援する介護支援専門員等が、認知症の方に早期から訪問看護師が介入する上での指標になり、重度化の予防に繋がり住み慣れた地域での生活が継続されると考える。また専門職だけでなく、認知症に関心を持つ方や家族の方にもわかりやすいような小冊子を作成したことで、幅広く啓蒙することができた。
