Abstract

This study aimed to determine the importance of caring for elderly patients hospitalized in medical institutions and the support they receive in their daily functions, and verify the validity and reliability of the Care Index based on the Life Function Model for the elderly in hospitals, which can be used by students enrolled in the bachelor’s degree program for nursing. To this end, we administered a questionnaire survey to second- and third-year students at two nursing colleges in prefecture A, and 165 valid responses were obtained. The exploratory factor analysis revealed that for the “ability to prepare a continuous life,” α was .959; for the “ability to respond to advanced acute care,” α was .927; for the “ability to promote healing and recovery,” α was .790; and for the “ability to grasp issues in small steps,” α was .897. In the confirmatory factor analysis, the values of the indicators of goodness of fit of the model were as follows: the goodness of fit index (GFI) was .817, the adjusted goodness of fit index (AGFI) was .752, the comparative fit index (CFI) was .919, the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) was .114, and Akaike’s information criterion was 435.413; GFI ≥AGFI. CFI was able to secure a value of .900 or higher. RMSEA did not meet the criteria below .100, indicating that it needs to be reviewed.
