Based on progress in home visits for rehabilitation and health guidance since 1979, the trend after the Nursing Care Insurance Law was enforced in 2000 was investigated. In home visits for rehabilitation, cooperation with many related organizations is required, and reorganization of the network built before the enforcement of the said Law is needed. The role of each home visiter for rehabilitation is being formed and cooperation with care managers is being strengthened. The tendency that the participation of the local government may decrease can't be denied. Connection with the hospital and the local government should be maintained, and a new community-based network needs to be built.
