Abstract:
Background: Avoiding inappropriate care transition and enabling people with chronic diseases to die at home have become important health policy issues. Availability of palliative home care services may be related to dying at home. Aim: After controlling for the presence of hospital beds and primary care physicians, we examined the association between availability of home palliative care services and dying at home in conditions requiring such services. Design: Death certificate data in Japan in 2016 were linked with regional healthcare statistics. Setting/participants: All adults (18 years or o

Abstract:
In 1990, palliative care services in Japan entered a new era when the national government authorized medical insurance cover for hospice care. Within the last decade, gradual yet remarkable progress has taken place in the perception of the need for palliative care services in Japan. The first Japanese hospice opened in 1981, followed by three other hospices over a nine-year period. These have been well received both by the public and medical professionals, although many difficulties have been encountered in establishing them. It is hoped that further development will include an increase in the

Abstract:
For several years, demographic trends and changing ideas about responsibilities for elder care in Japan have contributed to the desire, or need, for families to seek out new care approaches. This article focuses on one alternative to traditional approaches to caring for elder family members—the home-helper program that is available through the Japanese long-term care insurance program. Using ethnographic data collected in northern Japan, it will be argued that the home-helper program forms a compensatory elder care system that is intended to augment family-provided care and social support, rat

The Japanese government has promoted the development of a home care system that integrates the provision of health and social care services and links formal and informal care.

Abstract:
A central feature of Japan’s approach to community-based care of the elderly, including long-term home health care, is the emphasis on providing bath facilities. For mobile elders, senior centers typically provide a public bathing facility in which people can enjoy a relaxing soak along with friends who also visit the centers. In terms of in-home long-term care, visiting bath services are provided to assist family care providers with the difficult task of bathing a frail or disabled elder—a task made more problematic as a result of the Japanese style of bathing.

Abstract:
North America and Europe have been struggling with increasing elderly populations needing medical and personal care. Japan also has suddenly found itself faced with a rapidly expanding population of sick and disabled old people. Japan, however, has witnessed this dramatic increase in its aged population proceed at a rate almost twice that of any other industrialized nation. The very suddenness of the emergence of such a top-heavy population and the equally sudden changes in the family structure have placed great stresses on both the medical and social welfare systems of Japan.

Abstract:
Taking into account the challenges posed by an ageing society, Japan, one of the most rapidly ageing countries in the world, has recently seen a shift in focus of its health delivery system for the elderly from hospital care to home healthcare. In Japan, home pharmaceutical care (HPC) is provided to home-bound elderly who have difficulties in accessing a community pharmacy, for regular medicine supplies and medication management. Although the number of HPC services provided has increased, little is known about the quality of care provided. Quality indicators (QIs) are a recognised mechanism fo
