ABSTRACT

There is a long-term care insurance system as a welfare policy to cope with a super-aged society, and the importance of care management is gradually increasing as a constituent of this. We will look at the contents of the recently announced plan for promoting community-based caregiving in relation to care management and review the problems. Care management for the elderly is not limited to a single field, but has a broad character that covers prevention and follow-up care throughout the daily life. This requires that institutions should be established and implemented in order to enable the elderly to live independently and autonomously not only physically but also mentally based on the organic linkage between home and community. In order to provide care management consistently and efficiently, policy formulation and resource allocation need to be centralized. The realization of this is the establishment of the Regional Comprehensive Support Center in Nursing Care Insurance. The regional comprehensive care system is a local system that enables various services such as medical care and nursing care to be appropriately provided. In order to realize the normalization ideology, which is a society where all the elderly and the disabled live together, and to provide the services according to the individual's mental and physical condition, the service supply system in terms of the function differentiation and integration need of medical care and nursing care Respectively. It is desirable that the infrastructure of the service delivery system be decentralized in order to identify various needs of elderly people who need services and to provide appropriate services. Therefore, in order to strengthen the management function for comprehensive elderly people in the region, we will carry out local support projects and focus on preventive care, so as to provide comprehensive support for care prevention and care services and support for family care. It is important to have a system that enables people to continue living in a stable area through the implementation of community-based services.
