In order to obtain information on the elderly cared for in long-term facilities, regarding their needs and the actual services received in these facilities, and to determine which facility could provide the most suitable service, elderly in two areas, urban S area and rural N area, were surveyed. The results were as follows. (1) The proportion of elderly placed in hospitals where the suitable care placements were hospitals was 84.6% in S area, and 66.6% in N area. (2) In elderly cared for in long-term facilities, the proportion of persons where the suitable care placement was in-home care was 11.7% in S area, and 14.1% in N area. (3) Therefore estimates for the elderly that would be for at home increases by 21.1% in S area and 27.2% in N area than the estimated figures used in plan for Elderly-Health Welfare in 2,000 AD.
