Introducing Inagi City's comprehensive care prevention and daily life support project

From April 2015, Inagi City started a comprehensive care prevention and daily life support project.
After answering the basic checklist (see below), those who are experiencing deterioration in daily living functions will consult with the Regional Comprehensive Support Center and decide which service to use.

If you are using only one or both of preventive long-term care outpatient care (day service) and home-visit care (home help service) of long-term care insurance services, even if you do not receive certification for long-term care, the results of the basic checklist If deemed necessary, preventive care and life support services are available.
