Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aims to develop a community assessment support program utilizing ICT to enhance the community assessment capabilities of novice public health nurses. Although the originally planned survey was not conducted, the use of AI in public health practice is expected to become essential. The research will continue with the development of a revised questionnaire incorporating AI, aiming to contribute to the enhancement of practical educational support systems aligned with the initial training programs for public health nurses and the promotion of community-based integrated care.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

研究期間中、コロナ禍や地震被災の影響を受けたが、その過程でICT・AIを活用した地域診断支援プログラムの必要性を改めて認識した。地域診断におけるAI活用の実態調査は未だ限られており、保健師初任者の地域分析力を育成する教育支援の構築を通じて、初任者研修制度および地域包括ケアの推進に貢献すべく、今後も研究を継続する予定である。
