Abstract
The population aging rate is increasing annually in Japan
and Finland. To support and sustain the elderly
nursing-care services, use of new technologies such as
robotic devices and IT-based system is more active than
before. And, we considered that the it is necessary to
internationally understand the expectations for and
problems for the future nursing-care services and global
technology development. In this context, we conducted the
same inquiry survey in Japan and Finland, and aimed to
compare find international differences of attitudes
regarding nursing-care services among countries. The
authors found that Finnish active seniors wanted to live
their home with home care service and were more
acceptable to technologies than their Japanese
counterparts.
