便利店在支持社区老年人生活方面发挥着重要作用。本研究的目的是描述和评估的教育计划，以促进社区和便利店在日本之间的合作的发展。我们根据对便利店员工的访谈制定了教育计划，以鼓励他们与健康/社会护理专业人员合作帮助老年人。我们对184名参与者进行了计划前和计划后的问卷调查，以评估该计划。在该计划之后，便利店员工对痴呆症的态度总分（p = 0.010）显着改善。相反，“团结和积极性”的得分，社区感的分量表，在卫生/社会护理专业人员中显着改善（p = 0.003）。根据参与者的职业，这一教育方案可以对支持老年人的观念和态度产生重大影响。这一教育方案可以促进社区网络，从而建立一个对老年人友好的社区。
Convenience stores play an important role in supporting community-dwelling older adults' lives. This study aimed to describe the development of and to evaluate an educational program to promote collaboration between communities and convenience stores in Japan. We developed the educational program based on interviews of convenience store staff to encourage them to collaborate with health/social care professionals for helping older adults. We conducted pre- and post-program questionnaire surveys of 184 participants to evaluate the program. After the program, the total score for attitudes toward dementia (p = .010) improved significantly among the convenience store staff. On the contrary, the score for "solidarity and proactiveness," a subscale for sense of community, improved significantly among health/social care professionals (p = .003). This educational program can have a significant effect on the perceptions and attitudes for supporting older adults, depending on the participants' occupations. This educational program could foster community networks, leading to an age-friendly community.
