Outline of Final Research Achievements

The current study surveyed 600 supervisors of visiting nurses stations in the Kinki area in order to ascertain what visiting care was provided to ensure the safety of elderly who live alone and require care and to ascertain whether the backgrounds of visiting care providers and visiting nurses led to differences in the care they provided. Results revealed that visiting nurses spend significantly less time coordinating and cooperating with sources of formal and informal support than they do conducting physical assessments and providing care. Results also revealed that visiting nurses who felt they needed personal development spent more time providing care with an eye toward safety and that visiting nurses working at small-scale care providers more often felt they needed personal development.
