[A study to improve the quality of visiting nursing care at Isehara City].

As for Isehara City Visiting Nursing Liaison Congress, we investigated and analyzed the actual conditions of visiting nursing care development at Isehara city by using the NADA nursing diagnosis. It is desirable that a visiting nurse should have skills in evacuation, suction of the respiratory tract, rehabilitation, prevention of complications and an early detection of a poor condition of the patient. In addition, we found that it is also desirable that a visiting nurse fulfill a leadership function in coordinating to support home-care, have a communication skill to anticipate potential problems of patients and counsel his or her family concerns in a short period of time.
