介護の本音: A Caregiving Diary Without the Polite Version
A Japanese diary by a former overseas resident who entered caregiving with no Japanese work history or prior caregiving experience.
Field notes
The diary is organized as a continuing episode sequence rather than general caregiving advice. Its transport entry records a concrete workflow—passenger lists, route planning, vehicle checks, alcohol testing, distance logging, and repeated rural-road trips—then contrasts that workload with the author’s account of receiving only minimal supervised training. Earlier entries trace the chain back to a fast interview that reportedly barely examined the applicant’s résumé.
