Promotion of Yokohama-based comprehensive community care

In Yokohama City, the local characteristics are based on the Community Care Plaza (Local Elderly Care Management Center), so that the elderly can continue their own life in the area where they are accustomed to living as much as possible until the end of their lives. We are working on the construction of a comprehensive community care system accordingly.

This is a comprehensive support and service provision system for each area of daily living, where nursing care, medical care, life support and nursing care prevention are provided in an integrated manner, centered on housing.
Construction is underway all over the country by 2025, when the baby boomers will become late-elderly.

We have set up a “daily life area” so that the elderly can continue living in the area where they live. In Yokohama City, 148 locations are set based on the area of community care plazas, based on a junior high school district (population scale of 20,000 to 30,000).
