Description

見守りシステムWatch system
　本発明は、高齢者等の見守り対象者を見守る見守りシステムに関する。 The present invention relates to a watching system for watching over a target person such as an elderly person.
　近年、核家族化と少子高齢化により、独居老人や老老介護が増えており、高齢者の孤独死などが大きな問題となっている。 In recent years, due to the nuclear family and the declining birthrate and aging, the number of elderly people living alone and elderly care has increased, and solitary death of the elderly has become a major problem.
　このような背景から、高齢者宅を訪問員が定期的に訪問して安否確認を行い、その結果を遠方の家族に報告するサービスがすでに知られている。 From such a background, there is already known a service in which a visitor regularly visits a senior citizen's house to check the safety and report the result to a distant family.
　また、特開２００３－１６２７８０号公報には、各人の安否情報を各人が所持している端末から収集し、無事が確認できない人については、その人の端末から所在地情報を収集する安否情報管理システムが開示されている。 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-162780 discloses safety information for collecting safety information of each person from a terminal owned by each person, and collecting location information from the terminal of the person for whom the safety cannot be confirmed. A management system is disclosed.
　訪問員が高齢者宅を訪問して安否確認を行う場合、従来は、訪問員が高齢者宅を訪問時に高齢者の健康状態をヒアリングするなどして、レポートを作成していた。ところが、訪問員は、訪問したときの高齢者の状態しか把握できず、前回の訪問から今回の訪問までの間の高齢者の生活活動や健康状態等は高齢者から聞き出した情報に頼るしかない。このため、高齢者の記憶に依存することになり、信憑性に欠けるという問題がある。また、高齢者が何かの病気に罹っている場合、病状の変化に気づかない可能性もある。 When a visitor visits an elderly person's house to check safety, conventionally, a visitor interviewed the elderly person's health condition when visiting the elderly person's house. However, the visitor can only grasp the state of the elderly when he / she visited, and the living activities and health status of the elderly from the previous visit to the current visit can only be relied on information obtained from the elderly . For this reason, it depends on the memory of the elderly, and there is a problem that it lacks credibility. Also, if the elderly have some kind of illness, they may not notice the change in the condition.
　本発明は、高齢者や障害者等の見守り対象者をよりきめ細やかに見守ることが可能な見守りシステムを提供するものである。 The present invention provides a watching system that can watch a person being watched over, such as an elderly person or a disabled person, in a more detailed manner.
　上記の課題を解決するために、本発明の一態様では、
　見守り対象者が自ら操作して入力した所定の質問事項に対する回答情報を、回答を行った時刻情報に対応づけて記憶する情報入力カードと、
　前記情報入力カードとの間で近接無線通信を行って前記情報入力カードに記憶された情報を収集するとともに、前記見守り対象者に面会した面会者が前記見守り対象者に直接面会して得た情報を前記見守り対象者の識別情報に対応づけて記憶する携帯情報端末と、

The information input unit 35 inputs information obtained by the visitor who has been watching and meeting the subject directly. The meeting information storage unit 36 watches the information input by the information input unit 35 and stores the information in association with the identification information of the target person.
　図６は携帯情報端末３の表示画面例を示す図である。携帯情報端末３の表示画面には、携帯情報端末３から近接無線通信により転送された情報を表示するカード収集情報欄４１と、訪問員がその場で見守り対象者に面会して入力する面会情報欄４２とが設けられている。カード収集欄と面会情報欄４２は、別々の画面に表示しても構わない。カード収集情報欄４１には、見守り対象者が情報入力を行った日付ごとに、生活行動に関するすべてのボタン操作情報が表示される。カード収集情報欄４１に表示されるボタン操作情報は、訪問員が前回訪問した後、今回訪問するまでの間に見守り対象者が情報入力カード２に入力したボタン操作情報である。 FIG. 6 is a view showing an example of a display screen of the portable information terminal 3. On the display screen of the portable information terminal 3, a card collection information column 41 for displaying information transferred from the portable information terminal 3 by proximity wireless communication, and visit information that a visitor views and inputs the person to be watched on the spot A column 42 is provided. The card collection field and the meeting information field 42 may be displayed on separate screens. In the card collection information column 41, all button operation information related to living activities is displayed for each date on which the person to be watched inputs information. The button operation information displayed in the card collection information column 41 is button operation information input to the information input card 2 by the person to be watched after the visitor visited last time and before visiting this time.
　情報入力カード２の記憶部２２に記憶されたボタン操作情報は、携帯情報端末３に転送した後に、制御部２３からの指示により、消去してもよい。記憶部２２内のボタン操作情報を消去する機能がない場合は、制御部２３は、どのボタン操作情報までを携帯情報端末３に転送したかを示す転送済情報を記憶部２２に書き込んでおり、次に携帯情報端末３に送信する際には、転送済情報を検索して、同じボタン操作情報を重複して携帯情報端末３に送信しないようにするのが望ましい。 The button operation information stored in the storage unit 22 of the information input card 2 may be erased by an instruction from the control unit 23 after being transferred to the portable information terminal 3. When there is no function for deleting the button operation information in the storage unit 22, the control unit 23 writes in the storage unit 22 transferred information indicating which button operation information has been transferred to the portable information terminal 3, Next, when transmitting to the portable information terminal 3, it is desirable to search the transferred information so that the same button operation information is not duplicated and transmitted to the portable information terminal 3.
　面会情報欄４２は、訪問員が携帯情報端末３の入力キーや選択ボタンで入力する欄であり、この欄に入力される情報には特に制限はない。例えば、予め問診票のようなものを用意して、問診票に記載された順序で見守り対象者にヒアリングを行ってもよい。あるいは、面会情報欄４２には、訪問員が見守り対象者の外見や口調などから感じたことを自由に記入してもよい。 The visit information column 42 is a column that a visitor inputs with the input key or selection button of the portable information terminal 3, and there is no particular limitation on the information input in this column. For example, an interview form may be prepared in advance, and the person being watched over may be interviewed in the order described on the interview form. Or you may enter freely in the visit information column 42 what the visitor felt from the appearance or tone of the person being watched over.
　この他、携帯情報端末３の表示画面に、情報入力カード２の電池残量を表示してもよい。情報入力カード２は、構造をできるだけ単純化して部材コストを削減するために、使い捨てを前提としており、電池１４の交換や充電は想定していない。したがって、電池残量が少なくなると、自動的に携帯情報端末３の取り替えを促すメッセージを携帯情報端末３の表示画面に表示させてもよい。なお、携帯情報端末３は情報入力カード２の電池残量を直接調べることはできないため、情報入力カード２を使い始めた日にちを記憶しておき、その日にちからの経過日数により、携帯情報端末３の交換時期が近づいたか否かを判断する。 In addition, the remaining battery level of the information input card 2 may be displayed on the display screen of the portable information terminal 3. The information input card 2 is assumed to be disposable in order to simplify the structure as much as possible and reduce the member cost, and does not assume replacement or charging of the battery 14. Therefore, when the remaining battery level is low, a message prompting for replacement of the portable information terminal 3 may be automatically displayed on the display screen of the portable information terminal 3. Since the portable information terminal 3 cannot directly check the remaining battery level of the information input card 2, the date when the information input card 2 is started to be used is stored, and the portable information terminal 3 is determined according to the number of days elapsed since that date. It is determined whether the replacement time is approaching.
　図７は訪問員が見守り対象者の住居を訪問した際に携帯情報端末３が行う処理手順の一例を示すフローチャートである。 FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an example of a processing procedure performed by the portable information terminal 3 when a visitor visits the residence of the person to be watched over.
　まず、携帯情報端末３は、見守り対象者の情報入力カード２をかざして近接無線通信での接続を確立する（ステップＳ１）。 First, the portable information terminal 3 holds up the information input card 2 of the person to be watched over and establishes a connection by proximity wireless communication (step S1).
　接続が確立すると、次に、見守り対象者の情報入力カード２のＩＤを取得する（ステップＳ２）。個人情報の漏洩を防止するために、携帯情報端末３には、見守り対象者のＩＤのみを記憶しておき、その他の個人情報は記憶しておかないのが望ましい。 When the connection is established, next, the ID of the information input card 2 of the person being watched over is acquired (step S2). In order to prevent leakage of personal information, it is desirable that the portable information terminal 3 stores only the ID of the person to be watched over and does not store other personal information.
　次に、ステップＳ２で取得したＩＤと、予め携帯情報端末３に記憶されているＩＤとを比較して、両者が一致するか否かの認証を行う（ステップＳ３）。このように、携帯情報端末３は、ＩＤのみで認証を行い、その他の見守り対象者の個人情報を持たないため、個人情報の漏洩を防止できる。 Next, the ID acquired in step S2 is compared with the ID stored in advance in the portable information terminal 3 to authenticate whether or not they match (step S3). Thus, since the portable information terminal 3 performs authentication only with the ID and does not have the personal information of the other person to be watched over, it is possible to prevent leakage of personal information.
　認証に成功しなかった場合は、処理を終了し、認証に成功すると（ステップＳ４）、情報入力カード２の記憶部２２に記憶されているボタン操作情報を携帯情報端末３内に読み込んで収集する（ステップＳ５）。 If the authentication is not successful, the process is terminated, and if the authentication is successful (step S4), the button operation information stored in the storage unit 22 of the information input card 2 is read into the portable information terminal 3 and collected. (Step S5).
　次に、収集したボタン操作情報を図６に示すカード収集情報欄４１に表示させる（ステップＳ６）。次に、訪問員が携帯情報端末３の入力キーや選択ボタンを使って入力した情報を図６に示す面会情報欄４２に表示させる（ステップＳ７）。 Next, the collected button operation information is displayed in the card collection information column 41 shown in FIG. 6 (step S6). Next, the information input by the visitor using the input key or selection button of the portable information terminal 3 is displayed in the meeting information column 42 shown in FIG. 6 (step S7).
　訪問員は、図６に示すカード収集情報欄４１への情報収集と面会情報欄４２への情報入力とが終了すると、見守り対象者への訪問を終える。その後、訪問員は、引き続いて、別の見守り対象者を訪問してもよい。この場合、携帯情報端末３に、予め、訪問する予定の見守り対象者のすべてのＩＤを記憶させておければ、各見守り対象者ごとに図７の処理を行うことで、それぞれの見守り対象者の情報をＩＤで区別して記憶できる。 When the visitor finishes collecting information in the card collection information column 41 and inputting information in the meeting information column 42 shown in FIG. Thereafter, the visitor may continue to visit another watching target person. In this case, if the mobile information terminal 3 stores in advance all the IDs of the watching target persons scheduled to visit, the processing of FIG. Can be distinguished and stored by ID.
　訪問員は、例えば一日分の携帯情報端末３への情報入力を終えると、その日に入力した情報を情報管理装置４に転送する処理を行う。転送は、近接無線通信を利用してもよいし、他の通信手段（例えば、ＵＳＢ端子やＬＡＮ端子を用いた有線通信、あるいは無線ＬＡＮや赤外線通信、セルラー通信等を用いた無線通信）を利用してもよい。 For example, when a visitor finishes inputting information to the portable information terminal 3 for one day, the visitor performs a process of transferring the information input on the day to the information management apparatus 4. For the transfer, close proximity wireless communication may be used, or other communication means (for example, wired communication using a USB terminal or a LAN terminal, or wireless communication using wireless LAN, infrared communication, cellular communication, or the like) is used. May be.
　情報管理装置４は、例えばサーバであり、大量の情報を格納するための大容量記憶装置を備えている。また、情報管理装置４は、すべての見守り対象者の個人情報も管理している。このため、情報管理装置４は、ファイアウォールなどのセキュリティ性能の高いＯＳの下で動作している。 The information management device 4 is a server, for example, and includes a large-capacity storage device for storing a large amount of information. The information management device 4 also manages personal information of all watching subjects. For this reason, the information management apparatus 4 operates under an OS with high security performance such as a firewall.
　情報管理装置４は、個々の見守り対象者の家族等の要望に応じて、訪問員が訪問で得た情報の少なくとも一部を、対応する見守り対象者の家族等に提供するサービスを行うことができる。このサービスは、例えば、見守り対象者の家族等に、訪問員が訪問するたびに、訪問で得た情報をわかりやすくまとめて電子メールで送信したり、あるいは、訪問で得た情報をレポートにまとめて郵送等の物理的手段で送付することなどを含んでいる。あるいは、見守り対象者の家族等が特定のＵＲＬアドレスにアクセスして、パスワード等の照合に成功した場合に、オンライン上で訪問員が訪問で得た情報を閲覧できるようにしてもよい。また、場合によっては、訪問員が見守り対象者の表情等を写真撮影またはビデオ撮影したものを見守り対象者の家族等に提供してもよい。 The information management device 4 may provide a service that provides at least a part of the information obtained by the visitor to the corresponding monitoring target person's family according to the request of the individual watching target person's family. it can. For example, each time a visitor visits the family of the person being watched over, this service summarizes the information obtained from the visit in an easy-to-understand manner and sends it by e-mail, or summarizes the information obtained from the visit in a report. And sending by physical means such as mail. Alternatively, when a family member or the like of a person to be watched accesses a specific URL address and collates a password or the like successfully, a visitor may be able to browse information obtained by the visit online. In some cases, the visitor may watch and take a picture or video of the person's facial expression, etc., and provide it to the family of the person.
　このように、第１の実施形態では、見守り対象者が定期的に情報入力カード２に入力したボタン操作情報を、訪問員が見守り対象者の住居を訪問した際に、訪問員が所持する携帯情報端末３に転送するとともに、訪問員が見守り対象者にヒアリング等して得た情報を訪問員が携帯情報端末３に入力する。これにより、携帯情報端末３には、訪問員が見守り対象者を訪問した時点で訪問員が知得した情報だけでなく、訪問員が前回訪問してから今回訪問するまでの間の見守り対象者の生活活動等も蓄積されることになり、よりきめ細やかに見守り対象者の生活活動や健康状態等を把握できるようになる。これにより、見守り対象者が何か病気に罹っている場合には、その診断に役立てることができる。また、訪問員が見守り対象者にヒアリングを行う内容の一部を、予め見守り対象者が情報入力カード２に入力するため、訪問者による見守り対象者のヒアリング時間を短縮でき、訪問員の負担軽減が図れる。 As described above, in the first embodiment, when the visitor visits the residence of the person to be watched, the button operation information periodically input to the information input card 2 by the person to be watched is carried by the visitor. While transferring to the information terminal 3, the visitor inputs information obtained by the visitor to the person to be watched and hearing, etc., into the portable information terminal 3. As a result, the mobile information terminal 3 has not only information that the visitor has learned when the visitor visits the watch target person, but also the watch target person from the previous visit to the current visit. Life activities, etc. will also be accumulated, and it will be possible to monitor the life activities and health status of the target person with a more detailed watch. As a result, if the person being watched over has some illness, it can be used for the diagnosis. In addition, because the visitor inputs a part of the content that the visitor interviews with the person being watched into the information input card 2 in advance, the visitor's hearing time can be reduced by the visitor and the burden on the visitor is reduced. Can be planned.
　見守り対象者が所持してボタン入力する情報入力カード２は、持ち運びが容易なシート部材で形成されており、ボタン入力もＯＡ機器についての知識がなくても容易に行えるため、見守り対象者の負担が増えるおそれはない。 The information input card 2 that the person to be watched possesses and inputs a button is formed of a sheet member that is easy to carry, and button input can be easily performed without knowledge of the OA device. There is no risk of increasing.
　例えば、情報入力カード２に定期的に情報入力を行う必要がある場合は、情報入力をすべき時間になったら、情報入力カード２のスピーカ１５から、そのことを知らせるビープ音や自動音声案内の音声を出力するようにすれば、見守り対象者の入力し忘れを防止できる。 For example, when it is necessary to periodically input information to the information input card 2, when it is time to input information, the speaker 15 of the information input card 2 makes a beep sound or automatic voice guidance to notify that. If the voice is output, it is possible to prevent the watching target person from forgetting to input.
　また、図２に示すように、情報入力カード２に取消ボタンｂ２を設けておけば、見守り対象者がボタン操作を誤っても、取消ボタンｂ２を押下することで、直前のボタン操作をキャンセルできるため、ボタン操作を誤ってはいけないという精神的な負担を見守り対象者に与えなくて済む。また、取消ボタンｂ２を設けることで、ボタン操作ミスの頻度も減らせる。 Further, as shown in FIG. 2, if the cancel button b2 is provided on the information input card 2, even if the person to be watched mistakes the button operation, the previous button operation can be canceled by pressing the cancel button b2. Therefore, it is not necessary to watch the mental burden that the button operation should not be mistakenly given to the target person. Also, by providing the cancel button b2, the frequency of button operation mistakes can be reduced.
　また、訪問員は、携帯情報端末３に蓄積した情報を、見守り対象者のＩＤと対応づけて、情報管理装置４に転送する。情報管理装置４は、見守り対象者の個人情報を管理しているため、個々の見守り対象者に対応づけて、見守り対象者が自ら情報入力カード２に入力したボタン操作情報と、訪問員が見守り対象者にヒアリング等して得た情報とを管理できる。よって、情報管理装置４が蓄積した情報の少なくとも一部を見守り対象者の家族等に必要に応じて通知でき、家族等は見守り対象者を訪問しなくても、見守り対象者の生活活動や健康状態等をよりきめ細やかに把握できるようになる。 Further, the visitor transfers the information stored in the portable information terminal 3 to the information management device 4 in association with the ID of the person to be watched over. Since the information management device 4 manages the personal information of the person being watched over, the button operation information entered by the person to be watched by himself / herself into the information input card 2 in association with each person being watched over, It is possible to manage information obtained through interviews with the subject. Therefore, at least a part of the information accumulated by the information management device 4 can be watched and notified to the target person's family, etc. as necessary. It becomes possible to grasp the state and the like more finely.
　さらに、携帯情報端末３には、訪問員が見守り対象者の住居を訪問した日時情報が記録されるため、訪問員が決められた日時に見守り対象者の住居を訪問したことをチェックすることもできる。 In addition, since the date and time information that the visitor visited the target person's residence is recorded in the portable information terminal 3, it is possible to check that the visitor visited the target person's residence at the determined date and time. it can.
　また、携帯情報端末３に指紋等の生体情報認証システムを導入しておけば、見守り対象者や訪問員のなりすましによる不正を確実に防止できる。 In addition, if a biometric information authentication system such as a fingerprint is introduced into the portable information terminal 3, fraud due to impersonation of a person being watched over or a visitor can be surely prevented.
　（第２の実施形態）
　上述した第１の実施形態は、訪問員が見守り対象者の住居を訪問して情報入力カード２の情報を収集するとともに面会して得た情報も入力する例を説明したが、見守り対象者が寝たきりでない場合は、見守り対象者の健康維持と見守り対象者に他人とのコミュニケーションの機会を与える観点から、見守り対象者を積極的に歩かせて、他人とのコミュニケーションが可能な場所まで来てもらう方が望ましいこともありえる。 (Second Embodiment)
Although 1st Embodiment mentioned above demonstrated the example in which a visitor visits a monitoring subject's residence and collects the information of the information input card 2, and also inputs the information obtained by the meeting, If you are not bedridden, from the viewpoint of maintaining the health of the person being watched over and giving the watchee a chance to communicate with others, have the person watched actively walk and have them come to a place where they can communicate with others. It may be desirable.
　そこで、第２の実施形態は、指定の日時に所定の場所まで見守り対象者に来てもらうことを前提としている。なお、見守り対象者によっては、頭はしっかりしているが足腰が不自由な場合もありうるため、見守り対象者は指定の場所まで必ずしも歩いて行く必要はなく、車椅子等を用いて出向いてもよい。 Therefore, the second embodiment is based on the premise that the person to be watched visits a predetermined place at a specified date and time. Depending on the person being watched over, the head may be solid but the legs may be inconvenient, so it is not necessary for the person being watched to walk to the designated place, even if they use a wheelchair etc. Good.
　ただし、本実施形態では、見守り対象者が所定の場所まで出向く際には、自分の情報入力カード２を持って行くことを要求する。所定の場所には、見守り対象者に面会する面会者がおり、この面会者が所持する携帯情報端末３に、見守り対象者の情報入力カード２内のボタン操作情報を転送することになる。この場合の携帯情報端末３の処理手順は、図７と同様である。 However, in the present embodiment, when the person to be watched visits a predetermined place, it is requested to bring his / her information input card 2. There is a visitor who visits the person to be watched at the predetermined place, and the button operation information in the information input card 2 of the person to be watched is transferred to the portable information terminal 3 possessed by this visitor.
