Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study made it clear that the experience of community welfare activities for victims support is an important opportunity to build community care systems in the areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake. In the areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, the implementation of a new comprehensive care project by partial amendment of the Long-Term Care Insurance Law in 2014, and maintenance of a community life support system for victims support were simultaneously reviewed. This had a certain influence on the way of community care systems in the affected area of the Great East Japan Earthquake.
