abstract="This study was carried out to stipulate the issues that have to be taken into consideration for realizing better support to DV victims. For this purpose, various constraints experienced by DV supporting personnel were studied based upon the interviews conducted in this research. The questionnaire results are further analyzed to clarify the obstacles and difficulties, by which hinder DV victims' day to day social activities. KJ method was employed in the analytical stage of this study after collection of interview results from 20 examinees. They were all personnel serving for DV victim support at the age of 35-68 years old (50 years old in average). The average duration of their service was 8.6 years (ranged from 1 year to 30 years). It was consequently revealed that reflection of self-agreement/self-consensus to the supporting activities is crucially important, if the personnel are willing to have relevant recognition, understanding and acknowledgement on the victims' emotion and its background facts and the determinant environmental factors. It is also obvious that victims are properly motivated by the personnel in the recognition of their various emotional events in order to open their minds to the supporters. Recovery process of DV was categorized as 5 phases of (1) turmoil, (2) distress-denial, (3) transformation-exhaust, (4) retardation, and (5) recovery-stabilization in relation to the support process. Finally, the responsibilities of nursing professionals in various facets in DV issues are undoubtedly important specifically in terms of opportunity creation, where DV victims are able to reconstruct their compatibility to various human relationships in the society. Person to person relationships between nursing professionals and the DV victims in the process of support is regarded as a useful simulation in strengthening their capabilities to fight against unknown difficulties that should be confronted by them. Institutional strengthening related to DV is another target, which has to be tackled by us for realizing tangible betterment both in prevention and social support related to DV in Japan. Currently modified legislation on DV should be further notified to every corner of the society. Structural reform to enable better networking and referral activities in the existing curative health care delivery system should also be an urgent objective to be achieved by strong intervention of the central/local government of Japan.<p />",
