ABSTRACT
1) As part of a training program for compassionate care and community-based medicine, Wakayama Medical University began experiential training for first-year students at local welfare facilities for the elderly in 2006.2) Students were divided into groups of 2 or 3 and sent to welfare facilities for the elderly throughout Wakayama prefecture for 5 days of "on-the-job" training. After the training period, the students completed a questionnaire survey. Survey results from 2006 and 2007 were compared.3) The surveys showed that many students considered the training to be valuable because they could start communicating with the elderly residents of the facility by around the middle of the training period. On the basis of this result, we concluded that the 5 consecutive days of the program enhance the effectiveness of training.
