Abstract
With an aging population there are increasing demands on Functional Recovery Care (F.R.C) for the patients requiring nursing care, in other words can patients start taking care of themselves. Family members and other care givers as well as patients also want to see patients become more independent. In this study we evaluated independent nurses and care staff who took care of patients who needed Functional Recovery Care (especially walking support) at the beginning stage. We also analyzed the service value and the QCD (Q= quality, C= cost D = deliver time). We came to the conclusion that the nurses and care staff were (and still are) unable to provide sufficient Functional Recovery Care due to inadequate education and a lack of training. Based on this investigation and these results, we are planning to develop an effective education service for Functional Recovery Care staff. This service is based on the P2M framework.
