Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the barriers and solution of providing long-term care (LTC) services at home for the beneficiaries with mild dementia.
Methods: The data were collected by interviewing three focus groups consisting of 10 home-visit nurses and analyzed through the analytic process by Morgan and Krueger.
Results: The barriers of providing LTC services for clients were identified as follows: inadequateness of the current LTC model for elderly individuals with mild dementia and inappropriateness of the personal environment for home care. The solutions for these barriers were suggested as follows: building up a safe environment for home care and maintaining an appropriate standard utilization plan of LTC service.
Conclusion: The current service model for the beneficiaries with mild dementia should be modified in order to provide comprehensive long-term care services based on their complex needs.
