Abstract

<p>Objective　Floor plan sketches (FPSs) are schematic representations of floors in a home. FPSs display information gathered from observations and interviews on people's way of dwelling. To elucidate the effects of utilizing FPSs in case reviews assuming a community care meeting attended by multidisciplinary professionals, we conducted reviews of hypothetical cases created for experimental purposes.</p><p>Methods　Two hypothetical cases (Cases 1 and 2) were developed, and each case was reviewed with and without FPSs. Two groups (Groups A and B) were created, each consisting of five health care and welfare professionals involved in actual case reviews. Group A reviewed Case 1 without FPSs followed by Case 2 with FPSs, while Group B reviewed Case 2 without FPSs followed by Case 1 with FPSs. Case conferences and group interviews conducted after the completion of these reviews. Based on the verbatim transcripts of the reviews and interviews, we investigated differences between case reviews with and without FPSs with regard to the time required for the review and the number and contents of participants' comments.</p><p>Results　Review content could largely be divided into two categories: (1) the living conditions and support for the case subjects and their families, and (2) their homes and their way of dwelling at home. These categories were common to case reviews both with and without FPSs. In discussions about the homes and ways of dwelling, however, confirmation of the locations of rooms consumed a large amount of time in case reviews without FPSs. In case reviews with FPSs, discussions were more specific and included details such as room usage and paths by which residents move. The mean time required for a review was 41 minutes per case (range: 36 to 44 minutes), which did not greatly differ based on whether or not FPSs were used. Participants made more comments and seemed to interact more actively with each other when they had the FPSs than when they did not. The impressions of participants were that FPSs allowed the visualization of the case subjects and their families in their homes and fostered a greater feeling of familiarity with the case.</p><p>Conclusion　The use of FPSs in case reviews reduces the time spent on information sharing and allows more detailed review contents. Furthermore, FPSs enhance the ability to imagine the daily lives of case subjects and their families, thereby potentially broadening assessments in case reviews.</p>
