| 内容記述 | The professional experience of care managers with care worker certification and the learning programs for these care managers after the enforcement of the Long-Term Care Insurance program in Japan were investigated. A survey was conducted of 42 certified care workers employed as in-home long-term care support providers in Niigata Prefecture. This study focused on what kind of learning should be provided to care managers to improve their theory and skills under changing circumstances. Seventeen out of 42 (40.5%) of the in-home long-term care support providers surveyed used to work as a care staff member at care facilities. Their responses to the survey questions revealed that they have a strong need for specific learning, such as “total care theory for a demented patient” (78.6%), “better caretaking skill” (61.9%), and also “medical knowledge” (54.8%). In the future, a learning program must be established to provide care managers engaged in in-home long-term care support with the expertise they need to strengthen their theory and skills. This learning program needs to be based on the workers' professional experience as certified care workers. Introduction Care managers are a newly designated profession in Japan that was created concurrent with the enactment of Long-term Care Insurance in 1997. These care managers are qualified to oversee and provide perspective on necessary support for persons receiving long-term care, and to make a care plan that fosters collaboration among health, medical and social welfare services. The care managers make a care plan for inhome long-term care support providers, facility care services, and multifunctional long-term care in small and large group homes, and also coordinate appropriate care services based on the patient's needs (The Committee of Textbook for the Long-Term Care Support Specialist Internship, 2008). Care managers are registered in prefectures after passing a care manager examination and completing a learning program. Candidates must possess appropriate health, medical or social welfare qualifications and must also have five years of work experience in relevant fields. The most successful candidates for this position among the variety of specialists from health, medical or social welfare fields are nurses from health and medical services, and certified care workers from social welfare services. In 2009, certified care workers accounted for about 65% of the total number of successful candidates (The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, 2009). Many certified care workers became qualified care managers and work as in-home long-caresupport providers. They are experienced workers who provide total care according to each patient's mental and physical condition. However, they face new challenges, primarily creating a network of community and societal resources that can help support independence in the daily life of care receivers. The purpose of this study is to understand the current status of, and problems faced by, care managers with care worker certification by focusing on their professional experience and participation in a learning program organized by associations of certified care workers. The discussion below is based on the responses from certified care workers employed as in-home longterm care support providers, which we extracted from a questionnaire survey on members of the Association of Certified Care Workers in Niigata (Okada, 2011). To our knowledge, this is the first study on this topic, as no previous articles were found by Citation Information National Institute of Informatics (CINII) or other searches. | |||||||
