The “Wintering plan”, which enables short-term institutionalization for a few months, is a way to live in a home and an institution in combination. This paper aims to clarify how the “Wintering plan” contributes to the smooth relocation, and extract the effectiveness and the issues of it. As the findings, it became clear that the wintering plan functions as a base for returning home from hospital, a long-term trial stay, and a safety net for those who find it difficult to live at home and securing stable vacancies will be a key issue for the continuation of the initiative.
