Introduction to 介護支援専門員 (Care Manager)

介護支援専門員, also known as care managers, are professionals integral to Japan's long-term care insurance system, designed to support individuals requiring care. Their primary purpose is to assess the needs of these individuals and create a tailored care plan (ケアプラン) that outlines the necessary care services. For example, after conducting a comprehensive assessment of an elderly person with mobility issues, a care manager might create a plan that includes home modification services, regular visits by home helpers, and physical therapy sessions. This plan not only specifies the types of services needed but also their frequency and the service providers. Care managers coordinate with various service providers to ensure the implementation of these services, monitor the care recipient's status, and adjust the plan as needed to reflect any changes in the care recipient's condition or satisfaction with the services.

    Example Example

    Evaluating an individual's daily living abilities and creating a personalized care plan.

    Example Scenario

    A care manager visits an elderly person's home to assess their needs for daily activities such as eating, bathing, and mobility. Based on this assessment, they create a care plan that includes services like meal delivery, a bath aid, and a mobility aid to support independent living.

  • Coordination of Services

    Example Example

    Organizing and coordinating various care services as per the care plan.

    Example Scenario

    Example Scenario
