More than half of all children’s homes are established in Taisya, which incorporate Tyusya and Syosya. Here, Taisya is assessed in consideration of mutual support staff and space. Cooking and other housework activities are performed in small units, and Syosya here is assessed in terms of individual care and a home-like atmosphere. As downsizing reduces the opportunity for communication among different care units, it is necessary to establish common-usage spaces. In this context, partial downsizing is desirable for many institutions.
