Abstract: Abstract Currently, Japan is rapidly aging. The Japanese government would like to introduce the community-based integrated healthcare system for this end. The system aims to provide elderly people living at home with appropriate health, medical, and welfare services. It is essential to collaborate among health, medical, and welfare staff to work the system successfully. We have been developing a supporting system for sharing information on the situation of the elderly at home and conducted a field test around one year. The users and supporters with ICT skills got together to develop and operate the system. In this chapter, we introduce a case study of the information-sharing system in Nomi city, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. We explain about the effectiveness of our system and findings through the field test.
