Abstract

This study aims to clarify the life environment of the elderly who live at home with the help of in-home services. For this objective, 39 elderly who use home-visit nursing care service, offered by one health services facility for the elderly, were chosen. The results are as follows; 1)As the decline of ADL, they tend to have their meals in the bed room. Secondary causes of such tendency depend on whether they live alone or with the family. 2)When utilization of in-home services becomes popular, accessibility to the elderly's room is important.
