　Based on the rapid progress of medical technology, there are a number of people who live in the　community with ventilators. In 2012, the Social Workers and Care Workers Act was modified to support them, and nowadays care workers are able to conduct suctioning after completion of specific training. This paper aims to clarify the latent/tangible risks involved to suggest what effective training methods are required for care workers. As a result, five hazards and four errors were categorized. Risk analysis using FMEA was then discussed. There were four characteristics in the medical techniques extracted; the inability to minimize the amount of tasks, no time to detect errors, certain tasks are difficult to verbalize, certain tasks must be carried out even though it probably very risky. The development of a simple risk analysis tool needs to be considered, so that it can be utilized by those who provide tracheal suctioning actually.
