Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a system that supports caregivers in caring for care recipients, and in particular to a care support system that enables even inexperienced caregivers to create care plans or provide care to realize the wishes of the care recipients. [Background technology]

[0002] BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, as a technology for supporting a care provider such as a care manager in caring for a care recipient such as an elderly person, for example, the technology described in Patent Document 1 is known.

[0003] The technology described in Patent Document 1 registers a combination master, a problem identification condition master, and a problem identification master in advance, creates a face sheet and assessment table for each care recipient, extracts from the assessment table the assessment value corresponding to the judgment period and judgment conditions on the problem identification condition master, extracts from the combination master the problem code of the problem condition corresponding to that assessment value, identifies the problem area, problem item, weight, care goal, and problem corresponding to that problem code from the contents of the problem identification master, and sequentially creates a table. This makes it possible to create an assessment table whenever necessary, identify problem areas, problems, and cases, and create a care plan. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 10-334147 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, in the technology described in Patent Document 1, a care plan is created based on the problems and goals set by the care provider, so the results of care provided may not always meet the wishes of the care recipient. For example, if a care recipient wishes to return home rather than live in a facility, ideally a care plan should be created to realize that wish. However, as described in Patent Document 1

[0016] to

[0019] , creating a uniform care plan that focuses only on the physical functions and problems of the care recipient will prevent the wish from being realized and will lead to a decrease in the satisfaction of the care recipient and their family.

[0006] However, even so, creating a care plan that will realize the wishes of the person receiving care does not simply involve focusing on physical functions and related problems, as mentioned above; it requires the caregiver to have a wealth of experience, making it difficult for caregivers with little experience to create a care plan.

[0007] Therefore, the present invention has been made with a focus on the unresolved issues inherent in such conventional technology, and aims to provide a care support system that allows even inexperienced care providers to create care plans or provide care to realize the wishes of the care recipient.

[0038] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below, with reference to Figures 1 to 8.

[0039] First, the configuration of this embodiment will be described. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a network system.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 1, the Internet 199 is connected to a care support device 100 that supports a care provider in caring for a care recipient, and a large-scale language model server 200 that generates information using a large language model.

[0041] Next, the configuration of the care support device 100 will be described. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the hardware configuration of the care support device 100. As shown in FIG.

[0042] As shown in Figure 2, the care support device 100 is composed of a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 30 that controls calculations and the entire system based on a control program, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 32 that stores the control program etc. of the CPU 30 in advance in a specified area, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 34 that stores data read from the ROM 32 etc. and calculation results required in the calculation process of the CPU 30, and an I / F (Interface) 38 that mediates the input and output of data to and from external devices, and these are connected to each other and capable of sending and receiving data by a bus 39, which is a signal line for transferring data.

[0043] External devices connected to the I / F 38 include an input device 40 consisting of a keyboard, mouse, etc. that can input data as a human interface, a storage device 42 that stores data, tables, etc. as files, and a display device 44 that displays a screen based on an image signal.

[0044] Next, the relationship between hopes, goals, tasks, and implementation items will be explained. The care management table of this embodiment manages (1) the "hopes" of the care recipient, (2) the "goals" to realize the wishes, (3) the "issues" that need to be resolved to achieve the goals, and (4) the "implementation items" that are necessary to resolve the issues, in correspondence with each other.

[0045] FIG. 3 is a conceptual diagram showing the connection relationship between hopes, goals, tasks, and actions. For each wish, one or more goals are set to realize that wish, as shown in Figure 3. In the example of Figure 3, Goal 1-1, Goal 1-2, and other goals are set for Hope 1, and Goal 2-1, Goal 2-2, and other goals are set for Hope 2. Since goals correspond to each wish, Goals 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, and 2-2 may have common or similar tendencies or contents, but are essentially independent of each other. The care provider hears about the wishes of the care recipient and records the wishes heard in a care management chart. The care provider then sets goals to realize those wishes based on their own experience, care history, etc., and records the set goals in the care management chart. One or more goals may be set as needed.

[0046] Next, for each goal, one or more tasks that need to be resolved to achieve the goal are set. In the example of Figure 3, task 1-1-1, task 1-1-2, and other tasks are set for goal 1-1; task 1-2-1, task 1-2-2, and other tasks are set for goal 1-2; task 2-1-1, task 2-1-2, and other tasks are set for goal 2-1; and task 2-2-1, task 2-2-2, and other tasks are set for goal 2-2. Since tasks correspond to each goal, tasks 1-1-1, 1-1-2, 1-2-1, 1-2-2, 2-1-1, 2-1-2, 2-2-1, and 2-2-2 may share or be similar in terms of trend or content, but are essentially independent of each other. Based on their own experience and care history, the care provider sets tasks that need to be resolved to achieve the set goals and records the tasks in the care management chart. One or more tasks may be set as needed.

[0047] Next, for each issue, one or more action items necessary to solve it are set. In the example of Figure 3, action item 1-1-1-1, action item 1-1-1-2, and other action items are set for issue 1-1-1, action item 1-1-2-1, action item 1-1-2-2, and other action items are set for issue 1-1-2, action item 1-2-1-1, action item 1-2-1-2, and other action items are set for issue 1-2-1, and action item 1-2-2-1, action item 1-2-2-2, and other action items are set for issue 1-2-2. Additionally, for task 2-1-1, action item 2-1-1-1, action item 2-1-1-2 and other action items have been set; for task 2-1-2, action item 2-1-2-1, action item 2-1-2-2 and other action items have been set; for task 2-2-1, action item 2-2-1-1, action item 2-2-1-2 and other action items have been set; and for task 2-2-2, action item 2-2-2-1, action item 2-2-2-2 and other action items have been set. Each issue has its own corresponding action item, and although action items 1-1-1-1, 1-1-1-2, 1-1-2-1, 1-1-2-2, 1-2-1-1, 1-2-1-2, 1-2-2-1, 1-2-2-2, 2-1-1-1, 2-1-1-2, 2-1-2-1, 2-1-2-2, 2-2-1-1, 2-2-1-2, 2-2-2-1, and 2-2-2-2 may share common or similar tendencies or content, they are essentially independent of each other. Based on their own experience and care history, caregivers set the action items necessary to solve the issues set above and record the set action items in the care management chart. One or more action items may be set as needed.

[0048] Next, the configuration of the large-scale language model server 200 will be described. The large-scale language model server 200 has the same hardware configuration as the care support device 100. The large-scale language model is a deep learning model that pre-trains a language model, which models human-spoken language based on its occurrence probability, from a huge amount of data. Upon receiving a request, the large-scale language model server 200 uses the large-scale language model to statistically estimate the probability of generating the next word from the sentence included in the received request, and transmits the estimation result to the request source. As the large-scale language model, for example, known technologies described on the internet sites "https: / / chatgpt-lab.com / n / n418d3aa56f0b" and "https: / / agirobots.com / chatgpt-mechanism-and-problem / " can be adopted.

[0049] The contents of the hopes, goals, tasks, and actions, as well as the connection relationships between them, as shown in Figure 3, are publicly known at least in JP 2020-190818 A. This publicly known information is learned in the large-scale language model.

[0050] Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. The CPU 30 is made up of an MPU (Micro-Processing Unit) or the like, and starts a predetermined program stored in a predetermined area of the ROM 32, and executes the care support process shown in the flowchart of FIG. 4 in accordance with the program.

[0051] FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the care support process. The care support process is initiated in response to a request from a user such as a care provider, and when executed by the CPU 30, the process first proceeds to step S100 as shown in FIG.

[0052] In step S100, when input of the name of the care recipient is requested, the name of the care recipient is input from the input device 40.

[0053] FIG. 5 is a screen showing a care management table when preferences are entered from multiple candidates. Next, the process proceeds to step S102, where input of the care recipient's wishes is requested, and a display process of candidate wishes is executed. In this display process, candidate wishes are displayed on the display device 44 as follows. The care support device 100 generates a request including a request to generate candidate wishes and transmits it to the large-scale language model server 200. For example, the request may read, "Please provide candidate wishes for the care recipient when providing care to the care recipient." When the care support device 100 receives an estimation result (e.g., text including one or more candidates) output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, the care support device 100 displays candidate wishes for the care recipient on the display device 44 based on the received estimation result, as shown in FIG. 5. The care provider then selects one of the displayed candidates. In the example of FIG. 5, the candidate wishes displayed are "I want to go home," "I want to continue living at home," and "I want to be able to walk," and the care provider selects, for example, "I want to go home." Once a wish is selected, the process proceeds to step S104, where the selected wish is input via the input device 40.

[0054] Next, the process proceeds to step S106, where input of the wishes of the family of the care recipient is requested, and the wishes of the family of the care recipient are input via the input device 40.

[0055] FIG. 6 is a screen showing a care management table when a goal is input from multiple candidates. Next, the process proceeds to step S108, where a request to input a goal is made. A process for displaying candidate goals is executed. In this display process, candidate goals are displayed on the display device 44 as follows. The care support device 100 generates a request including the wishes input in steps S104 and S106 and a request to generate candidate goals, and transmits the request to the large-scale language model server 200. For example, the request may include, "The wish of the subject in providing care to the subject is XX. The wish of the subject's family is XX." "Please provide candidate goals for realizing these wishes in providing care to the subject." When the care support device 100 receives the estimation results output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, candidate goals for realizing the wishes are displayed on the display device 44 based on the received estimation results, as shown in FIG. 6. The care provider then selects one of the displayed candidates. In the example of FIG. 6, the candidate goals displayed are "perform rehabilitation," "live without anxiety in a facility," "reduce the burden of caregiving on family members," and "become able to go to the toilet." The care provider selects, for example, "perform rehabilitation." Once the target is selected, the process proceeds to step S110, where the selected target is input from the input device 40.

[0056] FIG. 7 is a screen showing a care management table when a task is input from multiple candidates. Next, the process proceeds to step S112, where a request to input a task is made. A process for displaying candidate tasks is executed. In this display process, candidate tasks are displayed on the display device 44 as follows. The care support device 100 generates a request including the goal input in step S110 and a request to generate candidate tasks, and transmits the request to the large-scale language model server 200. For example, the request may include, "The goal of caregiving for the care recipient is XX." "Please provide candidate tasks that need to be solved to achieve this goal." When the care support device 100 receives the estimation results output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, candidate tasks that need to be solved to achieve the goal are displayed on the display device 44 based on the received estimation results, as shown in FIG. 7. The care provider then selects one of the displayed candidates. In the example of FIG. 7, the candidate tasks displayed are "insufficient fluid intake," "low dietary intake," and "poor bowel control." The care provider selects, for example, "insufficient fluid intake." Once a task is selected, the process proceeds to step S114, where the selected task is input via the input device 40.

[0057] FIG. 8 is a screen showing a care management table when action items are input from a plurality of candidates. Next, the process proceeds to step S116, where input of an action item is requested. A display process for candidate action items is executed. In this display process, candidate action items are displayed on the display device 44 as follows. The care support device 100 generates a request including the task input in step S114 and a request to generate candidate action items, and transmits the request to the large-scale language model server 200. For example, the request may include, "The care challenge in providing care to the patient is XX." and "Please provide candidate action items necessary to solve this challenge." When the care support device 100 receives the estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, candidate action items necessary to solve the challenge are displayed on the display device 44 based on the received estimation result, as shown in FIG. 8. The care provider then selects one of the displayed candidates. In the example of FIG. 8, candidate action items displayed are "regular medical checkups," "medication management," and "providing meals tailored to the patient's condition." The care provider selects, for example, "regular medical checkups." When an action item is selected, the process proceeds to step S118, where the selected action item is input from the input device 40.

[0058] Next, the process proceeds to step S120, where input of a deadline is requested, and a display process of candidate deadlines is executed. In this display process, candidate deadlines are displayed on the display device 44 as follows. The care support device 100 generates a request including the goal input in step S110 and a request to generate candidate deadlines, and transmits the request to the large-scale language model server 200. For example, the request may include, "The goal of care when providing care to the care recipient is XX." and "Please provide candidate deadlines for achieving this goal." When the care support device 100 receives the estimation results output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, candidate deadlines for achieving the goal are displayed on the display device 44 based on the received estimation results. The care provider then selects one of the displayed candidates. Once the deadline is selected, the process proceeds to step S122, where the selected deadline is input via the input device 40.

[0059] Next, the process proceeds to step S124, where input of updated content is requested, and the updated content relative to the previous input is input from the input device 40.

[0060] Next, the process proceeds to step S126, where input of the achievement rate is requested, and the achievement rate (percentage) of the goal is input from the input device 40.

[0061] Next, the process proceeds to step S128, where input of the realization rate is requested, and the desired realization rate (percentage) is input from the input device 40. The realization rate is input based on responses from the care recipient or family.

[0062] Next, the process proceeds to step S130, where input of the wish fulfillment history is requested, and the wish fulfillment history, including the dates on which the wishes were fulfilled, is input from the input device 40. The wish fulfillment history is input based on responses from the care recipient or family.

[0063] Next, the process proceeds to step S132, where input of the goal achievement history is requested, and the goal achievement history including the dates on which the goals were achieved is input from the input device 40.

[0064] Next, the process proceeds to step S134, where care management information including the name, wishes of the care recipient, wishes of the family, goals, tasks, implementation items, deadlines for achievement, update details, achievement rate, realization rate, wish realization history, and goal achievement history input in steps S100, S104, S106, S110, S114, S118, and S122 to S132 is registered in the storage device 42. Care management information is registered for each care recipient.

[0065] Then, the process proceeds to step S136, and for each care recipient, the name, wishes of the care recipient, wishes of the family, goals, tasks, implementation items, deadline for achievement, update details, achievement rate, realization rate, wish realization history, and goal achievement history are displayed on the display device 44 based on the care management information in the storage device 42. For example, each item in the care management table of Figs. 5 to 8 is displayed in each item column.

[0066] Next, the effects of this embodiment will be described. In this embodiment, a request including a request to generate desired candidates is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the sent request is received, and the desired candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0067] This allows desired candidates to be obtained, so even a caregiver with little experience can create a care plan or provide care that will realize the wishes of the care recipient or their family.

[0068] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a request including the desire input in steps S104 and S106 and a request to generate target candidates is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and target candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0069] This provides potential goals that take the wishes of the care recipient or their family into consideration, allowing even inexperienced caregivers to create care plans or provide care that will realize the wishes of the care recipient or their family.

[0070] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a request including the goal input in step S110 and a request to generate task candidates is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and task candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0071] This provides candidates for tasks that take goals into consideration, so even caregivers with little experience can create care plans or provide care that will realize the wishes of the care recipient or their family.

[0072] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a request including the task input in step S114 and a request to generate candidate action items is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidate action items are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0073] This provides candidates for implementation items that take the issues into consideration, so even caregivers with little experience can create care plans or implement care that will realize the wishes of the care recipient or their family.

[0074] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a request including the goal input in step S110 and a request to generate candidate deadlines is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidate deadlines are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0075] This provides candidates for deadlines that take goals into consideration, allowing even inexperienced care providers to create care plans or provide care that will realize the wishes of the care recipient or their family.

[0076] In this embodiment, steps S102, S108, S112, S116, or S120 correspond to the input means of inventions 9 to 11, or the acquisition means of inventions 9 to 11.

[0077] [Modification] In the above embodiment and its variations, the display process in step S102 generates a request including a request to generate desired candidates. However, this is not limited to this, and the request may also include other information. For example, a request including the attributes of the care recipient (e.g., gender, age, blood type, level of care required, living environment, disease name, level of cognitive function, details of symptoms related to cognitive function, physical condition, excretion status, dietary status, economic level, and information on medication use; the same applies below) and including a request to generate desired candidates can be generated. This makes it possible to obtain desired candidates that take into account the attributes of the care recipient.

[0078] In the above embodiment and its variations, the display process in step S108 generates a request including the wishes entered in steps S104 and S106 and a request to generate goal candidates. However, this is not limited to this, and the request may also include other information. For example, a request can be generated that includes the attributes of the care recipient and the wishes entered in steps S104 and S106 and a request to generate goal candidates. This makes it possible to obtain goal candidates that take the attributes of the care recipient into consideration.

[0079] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its variations, the display process in step S112 generates a request that includes the goal entered in step S110 and a request to generate task candidates, but this is not limited to this, and the request may also include other information. For example, a request can be generated that includes the desires entered in steps S104 and S106 and the goal entered in step S110 and a request to generate task candidates. This makes it possible to obtain task candidates that take the desires into consideration. Also, for example, a request can be generated that includes attributes, desires, and goals and a request to generate task candidates.

[0080] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its variations, the display process in step S116 generates a request including the task input in step S114 and a request to generate candidate action items. However, this is not limited to this, and the request may also include other information. For example, a request including the goal input in step S110 and the task input in step S114 and a request to generate candidate action items can be generated. This makes it possible to obtain candidate action items that take the goal into consideration. Also, for example, a request including a desire, goal, and task and a request to generate candidate action items can be generated. Also, for example, a request including an attribute, desire, goal, and task and a request to generate candidate action items can be generated.

[0081] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its variations, information on four items, namely, hopes, goals, tasks, and implementation items, was registered, but this is not limited to this, and information on at least one of these items can also be registered.

[0082] In the above embodiment and its modified example, information on four items, namely, hope, goal, task, and action item, is selectively input, but this is not limiting, and information on at least one of these items may be selectively input. For example, the following configuration may be adopted.

[0083] [Configuration 1] A request including some of the desires, goals, and challenges and a request to generate candidates for the remaining parts is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0084] Explain the relationship between hopes, goals, and challenges in Structure 1. FIG. 9 is a conceptual diagram showing the connection between hopes, goals, and challenges.

[0085] For each wish, one or more goals are set to realize that wish, as shown in Figure 9. In the example of Figure 9, Goal 1-1, Goal 1-2, and other goals are set for Hope 1, and Goal 2-1, Goal 2-2, and other goals are set for Hope 2. Since goals correspond to each wish, Goals 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, and 2-2 may have common or similar tendencies or contents, but are basically independent of each other. The care provider hears about the wishes of the care recipient and records the wishes heard in a care management chart. The care provider then sets goals to realize those wishes based on their own experience, care history, etc., and records the set goals in the care management chart. One or more goals may be set as needed.

[0086] Next, for each goal, one or more tasks that need to be resolved to achieve the goal are set. In the example of Figure 9, task 1-1-1, task 1-1-2, and other tasks are set for goal 1-1; task 1-2-1, task 1-2-2, and other tasks are set for goal 1-2; task 2-1-1, task 2-1-2, and other tasks are set for goal 2-1; and task 2-2-1, task 2-2-2, and other tasks are set for goal 2-2. Since tasks correspond to each goal, tasks 1-1-1, 1-1-2, 1-2-1, 1-2-2, 2-1-1, 2-1-2, 2-2-1, and 2-2-2 may share or be similar in terms of trend or content, but are essentially independent of each other. Based on their own experience and care history, the care provider sets tasks that need to be resolved to achieve the set goals and records the set tasks in the care management chart. One or more tasks may be set as needed.

[0087] For cooperation with the large-scale language model server 200, for example, configurations 1A and 1B can be adopted.

[0088] [Configuration 1A] A request including one piece of information from among hopes, goals, and challenges, and including a request to generate one or two pieces of information other than hopes, goals, and challenges, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0089] Hereinafter, the notation "A / B" refers to a configuration in which a request including A and a request to generate B is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, and an estimation result B is received from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request. Configuration 1A includes the following configurations: "hope / goal," "hope / challenge," "goal / hope," "goal / challenge," "challenge / hope," "challenge / goal," "hope / goal and challenge," "goal / hope and challenge," "challenge / hope and goal."

[0090] [Configuration 1B] A request including two pieces of information from among hope, goal, and problem, and including a request to generate information other than hope, goal, and problem, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0091] Structure 1B includes the following structures: "Hope and goals / challenges," "Hope and challenges / goals," and "Goals and challenges / hopes."

[0092] [Configuration 2] A request including some of the wishes, goals, and actions and a request to generate candidates for the remaining parts is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0093] The relationship between hopes, goals and implementation items in Structure 2 is explained below. FIG. 10 is a conceptual diagram showing the connection relationship between hopes, goals, and actions.

[0094] For each wish, one or more goals are set to realize that wish, as shown in Figure 10. In the example of Figure 10, Goal 1-1, Goal 1-2, and other goals are set for Hope 1, and Goal 2-1, Goal 2-2, and other goals are set for Hope 2. Since goals correspond to each wish, Goals 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, and 2-2 may have common or similar tendencies or contents, but are basically independent of each other. The care provider hears about the wishes of the care recipient and records the wishes heard in a care management chart. The care provider then sets goals to realize those wishes based on their own experience, care history, etc., and records the set goals in the care management chart. One or more goals may be set as needed.

[0095] Next, for each goal, one or more action items are set that are necessary to solve the issues that need to be resolved in order to achieve the goal. In the example of Figure 10, action item 1-1-1, action item 1-1-2, and other action items are set for goal 1-1, action item 1-2-1, action item 1-2-2, and other action items are set for goal 1-2, action item 2-1-1, action item 2-1-2, and other action items are set for goal 2-1, and action item 2-2-1, action item 2-2-2, and other action items are set for goal 2-2. Since action items to be set correspond to each goal, action items 1-1-1, 1-1-2, 1-2-1, 1-2-2, 2-1-1, 2-1-2, 2-2-1, and 2-2-2 may have the same or similar tendencies or contents, but are basically independent of each other. Based on their own experience and care history, caregivers will set action items necessary to resolve issues that need to be resolved in order to achieve the set goals, and enter the set action items into the care management chart. One or more action items may be set as needed.

[0096] For cooperation with the large-scale language model server 200, for example, configurations 2A and 2B can be adopted.

[0097] [Configuration 2A] A request including one piece of information from among hopes, goals, and actions, and a request to generate one or two pieces of information other than hopes, goals, and actions, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0098] Structure 2A includes the following structures: "hope / goal," "hope / action items," "goal / hope," "goal / action items," "action items / hope," "action items / goal," "hope / goal and action items," "goal / hope and action items," and "action items / hope and goal."

[0099] [Configuration 2B] A request including two pieces of information from among hopes, goals, and actions, and including a request to generate information other than the hopes, goals, and actions, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0100] Structure 2B includes the following structures: "Hope and goals / action items," "Hope and action items / goals," and "Goals and action items / hopes."

[0101] [Configuration 3] A request including some of the wishes, issues, and actions and a request to generate candidates for the remaining parts is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0102] The relationship between hopes, challenges, and implementation items in Structure 3 is explained. FIG. 11 is a conceptual diagram showing the connection relationship between hopes, issues, and actions.

[0103] For each wish, one or more tasks are set that need to be resolved in order to achieve the goal of realizing that wish, as shown in Figure 11. In the example of Figure 11, Task 1-1, Task 1-2, and other tasks are set for Hope 1, and Task 2-1, Task 2-2, and other tasks are set for Hope 2. Since tasks to be set correspond to each wish, Tasks 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, and 2-2 may have common or similar tendencies or content, but are basically independent of each other. The care provider hears the wishes of the care recipient and records the wishes heard in a care management chart. Then, based on their own experience, care history, etc., the care provider sets tasks that need to be resolved in order to achieve the goal of realizing that wish, and records the set tasks in the care management chart. One or more tasks may be set as needed.

[0104] Next, for each issue, one or more action items necessary to resolve it are set. In the example of Figure 11, action item 1-1-1, action item 1-1-2, and other action items are set for issue 1-1; action item 1-2-1, action item 1-2-2, and other action items are set for issue 1-2; action item 2-1-1, action item 2-1-2, and other action items are set for issue 2-1; and action item 2-2-1, action item 2-2-2, and other action items are set for issue 2-2. Since action items to be set correspond to each issue, action items 1-1-1, 1-1-2, 1-2-1, 1-2-2, 2-1-1, 2-1-2, 2-2-1, and 2-2-2 may have common or similar tendencies or contents, but are essentially independent of each other. The care provider sets the action items necessary to resolve the above-defined issues based on their own experience, care history, etc., and enters the set action items in the care management chart. One or more implementation items may be set as necessary.

[0105] For cooperation with the large-scale language model server 200, for example, configurations 3A and 3B can be adopted.

[0106] [Configuration 3A] A request including one piece of information from among hopes, tasks, and actions, and a request to generate one or two pieces of information other than hopes, tasks, and actions, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0107] Structure 3A includes the following structures: "Hope / issues," "Hope / implementations," "issues / hopes," "issues / implementations," "implementations / hopes," "implementations / issues," "Hope / issues and implementations," "issues / hopes and implementations," and "implementations / hopes and issues."

[0108] [Configuration 3B] A request including two pieces of information from among hopes, tasks, and actions, and including a request to generate information other than hopes, tasks, and actions, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0109] Structure 3B includes the following structures: "Hope and issues / implementation items," "Hope and implementation items / issues," and "Issues and implementation items / hopes."

[0110] [Configuration 4] A request including some of the goals, tasks, and actions and a request to generate candidates for the remaining parts is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0111] The relationship between the goals, tasks, and implementation items in Structure 4 is explained. FIG. 12 is a conceptual diagram showing the connection relationship between goals, tasks, and action items.

[0112] For each goal, one or more tasks that need to be resolved to achieve the goal are set, as shown in Figure 12. In the example of Figure 12, task 1-1, task 1-2, and other tasks are set for goal 1, and task 2-1, task 2-2, and other tasks are set for goal 2. Since tasks to be set correspond to each goal, tasks 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, and 2-2 may have common or similar tendencies or content, but are essentially independent of each other. The care provider listens to the wishes of the care recipient and sets goals to realize the wishes based on their own experience and care history, etc., and records the set goals in the care management table. Then, the care provider sets challenges that need to be resolved to achieve the above goals based on their own experience and care history, etc., and records the set challenges in the care management table. One or more challenges may be set as needed.

[0113] Next, for each issue, one or more action items necessary to resolve it are set. In the example of Figure 12, action item 1-1-1, action item 1-1-2, and other action items are set for issue 1-1; action item 1-2-1, action item 1-2-2, and other action items are set for issue 1-2; action item 2-1-1, action item 2-1-2, and other action items are set for issue 2-1; and action item 2-2-1, action item 2-2-2, and other action items are set for issue 2-2. Since action items to be set correspond to each issue, action items 1-1-1, 1-1-2, 1-2-1, 1-2-2, 2-1-1, 2-1-2, 2-2-1, and 2-2-2 may have common or similar tendencies or contents, but are essentially independent of each other. The care provider sets the action items necessary to resolve the above-defined issues based on their own experience, care history, etc., and enters the set action items in the care management chart. One or more implementation items may be set as necessary.

[0114] For cooperation with the large-scale language model server 200, for example, configurations 4A and 4B can be adopted.

[0115] [Configuration 4A] A request including one piece of information from among the goal, task, and action items and a request to generate one or two pieces of information other than the goal, task, and action items is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0116] Structure 4A includes the following structures: "Goals / Challenges," "Goals / Implementations," "Challenges / Goals," "Challenges / Implementations," "Implementations / Goals," "Implementations / Challenges," "Goals / Challenges and Implementations," "Challenges / Goals and Implementations," and "Implementations / Goals and Issues."

[0117] [Configuration 4B] A request including two pieces of information from among the goal, task, and action items, and including a request to generate information other than the goal, task, and action items, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0118] Structure 4B includes the following structures: "Objectives and Issues / Implementation Items," "Objectives and Implementation Items / Issues," and "Issues and Implementation Items / Objectives."

[0119] [Configuration 5] A request including some of the desires, goals, tasks, and actions, and a request to generate candidates for the remaining parts, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an inference result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, and candidates are displayed based on the received inference result.

[0120] For example, configurations 5A, 5B, and 5C can be adopted for cooperation with the large-scale language model server 200. Note that configurations 5A, 5B, and 5C include the above-described embodiment and their modifications.

[0121] [Configuration 5A] A request including one piece of information from among hopes, goals, tasks, and implementation items, and a request to generate one, two, or three pieces of information other than hopes, goals, tasks, and implementation items is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0122] Structure 5A includes the following structures: "Hope / Goal," "Hope / Challenge," "Hope / Implementation Items," "Goal / Hope," "Goal / Challenge," "Goal / Implementation Items," "Challenges / Hope," "Challenges / Goal," "Challenges / Implementation Items," "Implementation Items / Hope," "Implementation Items / Goal," "Implementation Items / Challenges," "Hope / Goal and Issues," "Hope / Goal and Implementation Items," "Hope / Challenges and Implementation Items," "Goal / Hope and Issues," "Goal / Hope and Implementation Items," "Goal / Issues and Implementation Items," "Issues / Hope and Goal," "Issues / Hope and Goal," "Issues / Goal and Implementation Items," "Implementation Items / Hope and Goal," "Implementation Items / Hope and Issues," "Implementation Items / Goal and Issues," "Hope / Goal, Issues and Implementation Items," "Issues / Hope, Goal and Implementation Items," "Issues / Hope, Goal and Implementation Items," "Implementation Items / Hope and Goal," "Implementation Items / Hope and Goal," "Issues / Goal and Implementation Items," "Issues / Hope, Goal, Issues and Implementation Items," "Issues / Hope, Goal and Implementation Items," "Implementation Items / Hope, Goal and Issues."

[0123] [Configuration 5B] A request including two pieces of information from among hopes, goals, tasks, and implementation items, and including a request to generate one or two pieces of information other than hopes, goals, tasks, and implementation items, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an estimation result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request is received, and candidates are displayed based on the received estimation result.

[0124] Structure 5B includes the following structures: "Hope and goals / challenges," "Hope and goals / implementations," "Hope and challenges / goals," "Hope and challenges / implementations," "Hope and implementations / goals," "Hope and implementations / issues," "Goals and challenges / hopes," "Goals and challenges / implementations," "Goals and implementations / hopes," "Goals and implementations / issues," "Issues and implementations / hopes," "Issues and implementations / goals," "Hope and goals / challenges and implementations," "Hope and challenges / goals and implementations," "Hope and implementations / goals and challenges," "Goals and challenges / hopes and implementations," "Goals and implementations / hopes and challenges," "Issues and implementations / hopes and goals."

[0125] [Configuration 5C] A request including three pieces of information among hopes, goals, tasks, and implementation items, and including a request to generate information other than hopes, goals, tasks, and implementation items, is sent to the large-scale language model server 200, an inference result output from the large-scale language model server 200 in response to the request, and candidates are displayed based on the received inference result.

[0126] Structure 5C includes the following structures: "Hope, goals and issues / implementations," "Hope, goals and issues / implementations," and "Goals, goals and issues / hopes."

[0127] [Configuration 6] In any of Configurations 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B, and 5A to 5C, the request includes attributes of the care recipient or includes a request to generate attributes of the care recipient.

[0128] Configurations for sending a request that includes attributes include (1) a configuration for sending a request that includes only attributes and a creation request, and (2) a configuration for sending a request that includes attributes and other information (e.g., wishes, goals, issues, or tasks) and a creation request.

[0129] The configuration for sending a request including a request to generate attributes includes (1) a configuration for sending a request including a request to generate attributes only, and (2) a configuration for sending a request including a request to generate attributes and other information (e.g., aspirations, goals, issues, or actions).

[0130] [Configuration 7] In configurations 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B, 5A to 5C and 6, the request includes a deadline for achieving the goal or includes a request for generating a deadline for achieving the goal.

[0131] Configurations for sending a request including a deadline include (1) a configuration for sending a request including only a deadline and a request for creation, and (2) a configuration for sending a request including a deadline and other information (e.g., aspirations, goals, tasks, or implementation items) and a request for creation.

[0132] The configuration for sending a request including a request for generating a deadline for completion includes (1) a configuration for sending a request including a request for generating only a deadline for completion, and (2) a configuration for sending a request including a request for generating a deadline for completion and other information (e.g., aspirations, goals, issues, or implementation items).

[0133] [Configuration 8] In configurations 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B, 5A to 5C, 6 and 7, the request includes a period or frequency for performing the action item, or includes a request to generate a period or frequency for performing the action item.

[0134] The configuration of sending a request including a period or frequency includes (1) a configuration of sending a request including only a period or frequency and a request for creation, and (2) a configuration of sending a request including a period or frequency and other information (e.g., wishes, goals, tasks, or implementation items) and a request for creation.

[0135] The configuration for sending a request including a request to generate a period or frequency includes (1) a configuration for sending a request including a request to generate only a period or frequency, and (2) a configuration for sending a request including a request to generate a period or frequency and other information (e.g., aspirations, goals, tasks, or actions).

[0136] [Configuration 9] This is a configuration in which a request is sent that includes one of two combinations of attributes, hopes, goals, tasks, actions, deadlines, periods, and frequencies, and a request to generate the other. In this case, the connection relationship as shown in Figure 3 becomes two-tiered.

[0137] [Configuration 10] A configuration in which a request including a request to generate any one of attributes, hopes, goals, tasks, actions, deadlines, periods, and frequencies is transmitted. In this case, the connection relationship shown in Figure 3 does not exist.

[0138] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its variations, the terms "goal" and "challenge" are used, but this is not limiting, and it is equally valid to define "goal" as "long-term goal" and "challenge" as "short-term goal."

[0139] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its variations, the term "implementation items" is used, but this is not limiting, and "implementation items" may also be defined as "measures," "services," "service menus," "service items," "service contents," etc., which are synonymous with the term.

[0140] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its variations, the definition is "items to be implemented that are necessary to solve the problem," but it is not limited to this and can also be defined as "items to be implemented that are necessary to achieve the goal."

[0141] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its modified examples, one goal is defined, but this is not limiting, and two or more goals can be defined, such as a "long-term goal" and a "short-term goal." If there is a connection between the goals, the above embodiment and its modified examples can be similarly applied as a configuration in which each goal is selectively input. This also applies to hopes, issues, and implementation items.

[0142] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its variations, the care support device 100 is realized as a single device, but it is not limited to this and can also be realized as a network system. A care support server and multiple user terminals are connected to a network such as the Internet. The care support server is configured to have the same functions as the care support device 100. The difference is that the care support server receives information from the user terminal instead of inputting it using the input device 40, and transmits information to the user terminal instead of displaying it on the display device 44.

[0143] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its modifications, the storage device 42 provided in the care support device 100 is used, but this is not limiting, and an external storage device such as a database server can also be used.

[0144] Furthermore, in the above embodiment and its variants, the processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 4 is executed by executing a program pre-stored in ROM 32, but this is not limiting, and the program showing these procedures may be read into RAM 34 from a storage medium on which the program is stored and executed.

[0145] Here, storage media refers to semiconductor storage media such as RAM and ROM, magnetic storage media such as FD and HD, optically readable storage media such as CD, CDV, LD and DVD, and magnetic storage / optically readable storage media such as MO, and includes all storage media that can be read by a computer, regardless of the reading method (electronic, magnetic, optical, etc.).

[0146] Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment and its modifications, and can be applied to other cases within the scope of the present invention. For example, the present invention can be applied not only to nursing care but also to cases in which a caregiver supports care (looking after, protecting, caring for, nursing, etc.) of a care recipient in the fields of medicine (rehabilitation, treatment, etc.) or welfare (physical, intellectual, mental, etc.).
