Abstract

|
The purpose of this study was to make proposals of improving quality of in-home services for the community-dwelling elderly people who are in need of health care. Because social welfare centers have currently had charge of those services, the staffs of the centers were asked what the ways of improving the quality. The staffs argued that home health aides who visit the elderly people who are in need of health care could give them both medical service and emotional support. In addition, they stated that the social welfare centers should keep good relationships with health clinics or centers located close in the community in order to give the elderly people more appropriate and convenient services. They also suggested that the social welfare centers should try some fund-raising activities because financial support from government is not good enough for giving better services to the elderly people.
