Abstract

<p>【Purpose】The purpose of this study was to clarify the collaborative activities and mutual recognition between community comprehensive care unit's nurses (Ns) and care managers (CM) in supporting discharge of elderly from hospital.</p><p>【Method】300 nurses working in community comprehensive care wards and 360 care managers working in B City in A Prefecture were surveyed using an anonymous self-administered questionnaire.</p><p>【RESULTS】The highest percentage of responses regarding necessary collaborative activities with multiple professions in supporting hospital discharge were the same for Ns and CMs. The items regarding practice with the highest percentages were “relationship as a team” for Ns, and “user-centered awareness” for CM. While these professionals were willing to share information about their patients' lives after discharge, the percentage of those explaining their expertise was low. It is thought that collaborative activities focusing on these aspects would lead to more appropriate discharge support.</p>
