To establish the evaluation of nursing staff as an integral part of the cross-care environment, fundamental change in thought and practice is necessary. In September 2005, the National Care Center of the Family Caregiver Alliance (FCA) held a national conference on the formation of a career assessment consensus. At this conference, leaders of widely recognized health care and long-term care gather together and represent policies and practices on behalf of families and informal carers. Through the consensus building process, participants agreed that it is important to include assessment of needs of caregivers in daily life and service provision environment. These leaders also agreed with the basic principles and practical guidelines for evaluation of nursing staff. They have promoted a family-centered approach aimed at cooperating with elderly and disabled people to inject all parts of the tool kit.
