 How do We Live Together in Harmony? |
| In order for elderly people to lead a fulfilling and enriching life, we cannot ignore "the coexistence of the older and younger generations." If elderly people are not bedridden and are able to go out, they can be considered active consumers, and this will lead to the revitalization of local economy. So it is necessary for working people and the younger generations to acquire a sense of hospitality and care-fitting skills. This is vital to creating an environment that supports the independence of elderly people and is the most important issue for Japan's future. This is why Nippon Care-Fit Service Association started " Care-fitters." |

The Care-fitter's Mark of Reassurance
 At establishments where there are certified Care-fitters, The Care-fitter's Mark of Reassurance is displayed or the Care-fitter wear it as a badge or on the name tag. This is to reassure not only elderly people and people with disabilities, but to reassure those who are physically unimpaired as well. |
| With the recent rise in name recognition of Care-fitters, there are more organizations that offer care-fitting skill certifications. Each certification has its characteristics, but there are similar certifications with explanations or notations that can cause them to be confused with the Care-fitter certification. Even if the word "care giving" is included, these certifications are different from Care-fitter certification, so please pay close attention. |
