The elderly population in Japan is rapidly increasing, and comprehensive community care systems are now being built to address this situation. These are being promoted by community care councils, and are primarily staffed by municipal employees, physicians, nurses, and registered dietitians, although currently the participation of registered dietitians is low. Ryokufuso Hospital was recognized as a model nutrition care station by the Japan Dietetic Association for the nutritional care it has provided to the public, including preventative care programs and other projects. The hospital also holds cooking classes for men and has planned and administrated a major preventative care strategy. The burden on caregivers has been reduced by working with an at-home health care management and guidance program devised by the community care council, making arrangements for home delivery, and various other initiatives. As for the preventive care strategy, demonstrations and samples of meals for elderly people received particularly positive reviews. The cooking classes for men helped improve dietary management at home. A survey of group housing residents (response rate 36.2%) found that less than 10% were anxious about shopping, food balance, and cooking. Physicians and care managers exhibited a desire to participate in these programs, but few dietitians did so. The number of nutrition care station that are contiguous to community comprehensive support centers should be increased.
