 In April 2006, the revised long-term care insurance law, which includes the changes deemed necessary after the first five years of the system, was put into effect. Revised at the same time as medical fees, this revision of the law has resulted in major changes for professionals involved in medical and long-term care. We therefore examined the roles expected of speech-language-hearing therapists (ST) in home care for the elderly amidst these conditions from the perspective of a care manager (CM) with the basic qualifications of an ST. We first present two cases in which an ST effectively performed a CM's tasks. Next, we report the results of a survey conducted on the cooperation between ST and CM of home care providers in Tsuruga City, Fukui Prefecture. We found that:①CM's understanding of the profession of speech-language-hearing therapy is inadequate and②there are individuals with the potential for functional improvement or improved quality of life (QOL) as a result of service provided by ST thanks to the effective use of the long-term care insurance system. We suggest that securing adequate opportunities for information exchange between ST and CM, such as care conferences, should be given higher priority in the future.
