Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aims to examine a basic model to improve and enhance disaster preparedness for home care patients and ensure proper actions against frequent massive hazards. To achieve this purpose, we extracted health and life risks that posed on patients and their families in areas affected by large-scale disasters since Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake or later. We subsequently clarified actions to be taken in response to those risks involving various stakeholders. Also, maps were drawn to display preparatory actions currently in place at visiting nursing stations from the aspects of self-help, public help, and mutual help. In the next step, we examined ways toward the setup of a basic mode. Policy proposals were finally launched for the formulation of a fundamental model that would prepare home care patients for a disaster.
