A STUDY ON INDICATOR OF LOCAL NURSING POTENTIAL:-As foundation of local nursing potential improvement-

In this study, a system to calculate the quantity of nursing demand and possible nursing supply were developed for every living slot and activities. The local nursing potential and the influence of the local active volunteers were quantified by this system. The results are as followings.1.Considerable potential of nursing supply were observed, while the “pre-advanced aged people” can participate as local volunteers, but in the limit of volunteer's active time.2. From 2000 to 2005, while local nursing demand has risen, also the family and local nursing supply has increased, but it is not sufficient.3. At the geographical distribution, high local-nursing-supply potentials were observed at the suburb ring regions, but not at the rural area and built up area.
