Supporting independence and preventing deterioration through the evidence-based care information system “LIFE”

「Under the long-term care insurance system, integrated operation of “CHASE,” a system for collecting information such as users’ conditions and care provided, and “VISIT,” a system for collecting rehabilitation information, began in April 2021, and the two systems were launched as the evidence-based care information system “LIFE.” To advance evidence-based support for independence and prevention of deterioration, the system is expected to collect, accumulate, and analyze scientifically valid indicators and provide feedback from the analysis to care settings, creating a virtuous PDCA cycle and leading to high-quality care.」
