Abstrakt: Japan's aging rate is among the highest in the world these days. Consequently, home-visiting nursing stations ("stations") are increasing rapidly, but visiting nurses do not remain working at them for long. We developed a human resource promotional tool using spreadsheet software (Excel®; Microsoft Corp.) to support the education of newly appointed nurses working at the stations. Through this research we report findings of an examination concerning the usefulness of this tool on a trial basis. The results show that use of the tool led to increased motivation and decreased educational needs, a visualization of the skills acquired by newcomer nurses had an impact on their motivation to learn along with learning effectiveness.
