Abstract

Given the increase in nursing care recipients as a result of population aging and changes in family structures, finding mechanisms to ensure that a sufficient number of adequately trained caregivers are available is an issue faced by all advanced economies. Against this background, the purpose of this paper is to examine policies to support for family caregivers and ensure the supply of adequately trained caregivers from a comparative perspective by focusing on the case of Germany, which has a nursing care insurance scheme that shares many similarities with Japan's. The analysis provides useful lessons for Japan, such as with regard to expanding the support for family caregivers, improving the wages of nursing care personnel, and revising the training of nursing care professionals.
