Abstract

This study was conducted to develop a supportive nursing intervention plan for the young-old by identifying the essence and meaning structure of re-employment experience after retirement. Participants of this study were selected by convenience sampling of seven Korean young-old individuals from 60 to 74 years of age who had re-employment experience after retirement in C city. Data were collected from June to August of 2016 based on an in-depth interview and tape-recording. The interview data were analyzed by the phenomenological analysis method developed by Giorgi. The analysis revealed the following constituents; confusion in response to the change of life, recognizing that it is not easy to work again, adaption to new changes, opening a new life. It is becoming increasingly important that nurses, who have played an important role in elderly nursing because of the increase in average life expectancy and overall elderly population, take care of extended tasks throughout the society, away from clinical work. Therefore, a social support system and nursing guidelines necessary for continuous nursing intervention should be provided so that the elderly, including those at early retirement age, can be satisfied with their life after retirement.

본 연구의 목적은 초기 노인의 은퇴 후 재취업 경험의 본질과 의미 구조를 규명함으로써 지지적 간호중재 방안을 찾기 위함이다. 본 연구의 대상자는 C 시에 거주하고 있으며 은퇴한 후 재취업 경험이 있는 60세에서 74세 사이의 한국인 노인 7명을 편의표본 추출하여 선정하였다. 연구방법은 심층 인터뷰와 테이프 녹음을 사용하여 2016 년 6월에서 8월까지 자료를 수집했다. 인터뷰 자료는 Giorgi의 현상학적 분석 방법으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과 다음과 같은 네 가지 구성 요소가 도출되었다; 삶의 변화에 혼란스러움, 다시 일하기가 쉽지 않다는 것을 인식함. 새로운 변화에 적응함, 새로운 인생이 열림. 결론으로 평균수명의 증가와 노인인구의 증가로 인해 노인 간호에 있어서 핵심적인 역할을 수행해 왔던 간호사는 임상에 국한된 업무에서 벗어나 사회 전반에 걸친 확장된 업무를 담당해야 한다는 중요성이 점점 주목받고 있다. 따라서 초기 노인 은퇴자를 포함하여 노인을 대상으로 하는 간호 시 은퇴 이후 노인의 삶에 대한 만족도를 높일 수 있고 건강한 노년기를 보낼 수 있도록 사회적 지원 시스템과 지속적인 간호중재에 필요한 간호지침이 제공되어야 하므로 생각한다.
