Such specialists were responsible for constructing regional comprehensive care systems; therefore, developing the ability to make proposals regarding support directionality is required. 4) Dementia cafes are an important resource in creating communities for presenile dementia patients. 5) Home nursing training sessions improve the sense of self-efficacy of cooperating elderly individuals and can be universally applied to patients. Support for coping with anxiety related to home nursing and creating systems for on-site nursing education is necessary for cultivating nurses who can support patients.
