公営住宅を活用した高齢者自立支援拠点に関する研究兵庫県神戸市における「あんしんすこやかルーム」を中心として

摘要

1)設置形式：集会所使用型は1Fでバリアフリー化されている場合が多く、入室しやすいが、面積が小さく集会所內の他の部屋を自由に使用出来ない場合が多い。住戸活用型は住民が生活する住戸と同じ内装や間取りで、親しみやすい内部空間で、設備も充実している。今後の設置は、面積は3Om~2以上の住戸で相談室を確保し、その他は1室空間に改装することが望ましい。%In Hyogo Prefecture, where the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake has caused damage, a project called "senior citizens self-reliance support plaza" is being undertaken to set up bases for providing self-reliance support for senior citizens by utilizing meeting spaces and apartment units in public housing. This study looks at cases that utilized housing units in Kobe City, where there are a large number of such activity bases. The activities primarily include 1)keeping an eye on senior citizens, 2) promoting health, 3) facilitating a community, and 4) establishing a platform for the supporters. Staff members called "close-watch promoters" work with local supporters to provide support to senior citizens who should be watched over.Going forward, they plan to establish bases by utilizing housing units on the first floor and to make private rooms available for consultation. Ideally, the remaining spaces will be turned into one room to hold events. And elevators are essential in housing buildings as the project is for senior citizens. It became clear that a variety of small-scale support activities that are desirable for aged residents in public housing as a benefit of living in a housing unit can be quickly implemented effectively at a low cost.
