| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research was to analyze why Japanese hospital volunteer groups were not utilized as much as they could be and why such services were not being expand as in Canada and America. Our research concluded that it was due to the government’s lack of recognition of behavioral inefficiencies, contributing to the insufficient mobilization of volunteers into hospitals.
While the government was eager to place volunteers, the hospitals were not able to make full use of them. This gap of information between the government and the hospitals is likely to have been responsible for the failure to successfully mobilize hospital volunteers in Japan.
