Abstract

The study aims to measure and analysis the spatial equity of Medical welfare facilities for older persons and services, and, based on this, to seek the plan to secure the fairness. To this end, the research was carried out by converging the studies of geography and regional development for the equity of social welfare studies and space arrangement on types and functions of Medical welfare facilities for older persons. The main results of the study showed that, first, in case of the spatial arrangement(desire-to-service), Medical welfare facilities for older persons are located in all areas of cities(Si) and counties(Gun) but mostly existing in cities. Second, in case of the equity of regional distribution of Medical welfare facilities for older persons, it can say the equity in Gun is higher than Si, comparing the regions of Si and Gun. Third, in case of spatial equity of sanatorium for older persons, the spatial equity of care facilities for older persons showed statistical difference depending on the time required to reach the facility, but no difference on distance. This study made various suggestions based on the results of the above research, and suggested the necessity of convergence studies grafting technologies such as AI and the Internet of Things.

본 연구는 노인의료복지시설 및 서비스의 공간적 형평성을 측정·분석하여 공간적 배분의 공정성을 확보하기 위한 방안을 모색하는데 목적을 두었다. 이를 위해 노인의료복지시설의 유형과 기능 등에 대한 사회복지학 및 공간 배치의 형평성에 대한 지리학 또는 지역개발학의 학문을 융합하여 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과를 보면, 첫째, 노인의료복지시설의 공간적 배치(욕구 대 서비스)의 경우 노인의료복지시설은 시·군지역 모두에 있었지만, 대체로 시지역에 많이 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 노인의료복지서비스의 지역적 배분의 형평성의 경우 시지역과 군지역을 비교해보면 시지역에 비해 군지역의 형평성이 높다. 셋째, 노인의료복지서비스의 공간적 형평성에서 노인요양시설의 공간적 형평성은 시설까지 도달하는데 소요되는 시간에 따라서 통계학적인 차이를 보이며, 거리에 따라서는 차이를 보이지 않았다. 노인요양공동생활가정의 공간적 형평성은 시와 군간에 통계학적으로 차이를 보이며, 군지역에 비해 시지역의 공간적 형평성이 양호함을 알 수 있다. 이상의 연구 결과를 바탕으로 다양한 제언을 하였고, 사물인터넷, AI 등의 기술을 접목한 융합 연구들의 필요성을 제시하였다.
