Objectives: The purpose of this health promotion project for Korean medicine is to promote the health of climacteric women in Boeun-gun. Methods: During the project, pressure needle acupuncture treatment, herbal medicine treatment, meditation pore therapy, and health education were conducted. To evaluate the results, basic health surveys (body height, body composition test, blood pressure etc.), female hormone tests, Kupperman's index (KI), Menopause-specific quality of life questionnaire (MENQOL), and Perceived stress scales (PSS) were conducted. Results: No significant change was observed in the body composition test and blood pressure after the project. Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) was significantly increased after the project, but Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and total estrogen levels were not significantly changed. KI and MENQOL scores significantly decreased after the project, and significantly decreased in 4 out of 11 items of KI and 3 out of 4 domains of MEMQOL. No significant change was observed in the PSS score after the project. Conclusions: From the results of this project, it can be seen that the Korean medicine health promotion project can help alleviate symptoms of climacteric syndrome and postmenopausal syndrome.

This research was conducted in order to collect and arrange an oral health information needed the school oral hygiene as a part of a long term local community oral hygiene development to promote the oral health of the residents in Sung-Nam. After gathering the information of oral hygiene of 12-year old schoolchildren in Sung-Nam, these conclusions are reached: (1) The experience of dental caries in permanent teeth of 12-year old schoolchildren in Sung-Nam was revealed 74.7%, proportion of children with one or more caries in permanent teeth was 36.2%, and DMFT index was 2.75. (2) DT rate was 28.4% in total and regional difference has been revealed. In Sujung-Gu, DT rate was 36,8% and this was nearly as twice as 19.8% in Bundang-Gu. (3) For permanent teeth, fillings requirements for one surface were 26.6%, more that two surfaces were 13.3%. In addition, artificial crown treatment requirements were 1.8%, dental pulp treatment was 5.3%, and extraction requirement was 2.2%. In contrast, holders of pit and fissure sealant were only 27.1%. (4) In Sung-Nam, oral hygiene education campaign for 12-year old schoolchildren needs to be continued. Simultaneously, early stage examination and preventive approaches for decayed teeth such as pit and fissure sealant need to be considered for schoolchildren who have high tendency of dental caries and who are in areas which show high percentage of dental caries occurrence.

Objectives: The field of health education is still relatively new and is therefore evolving and developing rapidly throughout the world. Many countries' certification programs are still being created. This paper will discuss on the US CHES system of regulation, accreditation, and implementation for the future development of international health education programs. Methods: This article focuses on the United States CHES credentialing program, specifically on its historical development and the roles, employment settings and socioeconomic demographics of current CHES professionals through literature review. Results: The roles and skills required vary by employment setting, with seven universally recognized responsibilities of health educators. There are also 35 key competencies which are crucial to the role of the health educator, with 163 sub-competencies performed by all health educators. The employment of health educators will increase from 62,000 in 2006 to 78,000 in 2016. As the costs of healthcare increase, employers are projected to hire more health educators to decrease healthcare costs through prevention and early detection of chronic illnesses. Community health non-profit agencies, academia, healthcare (hospital/clinic), schools, government/government contracting, and businesses are some of the most widespread employment settings for health educators in the United States. Conclusion: Better understanding of this longstanding and successful program will benefit countries developing their own certification system. The variety and specificity of the information on the US CHES program may be of value as South Korea continues to develop its Korean CHES program.

This study was carried out an elementary school located in B-myeon and K-myeon of Gimje. One school (test group) with a school oral health care office and three schools (control group) without school oral health care offices were selected as sample schools. The dental caries prevention effects were compared between third to sixth graders who received benefits of the school continued oral health management program of K health office in Gimje, and first and second graders who did not receive the benefits due to the suspension of the program. The decayed, missing, and filled (DMF) rate, that received the benefits of the program, the test group was 58.9% and the control group was 76.1%, showing significant difference (p<0.05). For the DMF teeth (DMFT) rate, the who received benefits from the program, the test group was 41.1% and the control group was 64.2%, showing significant difference (p<0.01). For the DMFT index, the third to sixth graders that received benefits of the program, the test group was 1.73 and the control group was 3.66 showing significant difference (p<0.001). For the decayed teeth (DT) index, it was 0.72 for the test group and 1.96 for the control group showing significant difference (p<0.001). For the filled teeth index, the test group was 0.63 for the test group and 0.99 for the control group showing significant difference (p<0.05). For the DT rate, the total test group was 57.23% and 64.16% for the control group. For who received benefits from the program, the DT rate was 54.81% for the test group and 60.98% for the control group. The effects of the student continued oral health management program carried out by the oral health office can be confirmed. It is judged that efforts for continuous maintenance and promotion will be necessary to improve the oral health of students.

The purpose of this study was to verify the moderating effects of optimism on the relationship between depression and willingness for self-sufficiency in self-sufficiency program participating workers. For this study, a sample of 775 self-sufficiency program participating workers completed depression questionnaire, optimism scale and willingness for self-sufficiency scale. The data was analyzed using the Baron & Kenny's moderating effect verification method. The results of the analysis showed that depression had a significant negative effect on willingness for self-sufficiency, and optimism had a significant positive effect on willingness for self-sufficiency. The results verified the moderating effects of optimism on the relationship between depression and willingness for self-sufficiency. On the basis of the results, We discussed that optimism can reduce the negative effect of depression on willingness for self-sufficiency and improve willingness for self-sufficiency. We discussed the optimism promotion program as an intervention method to improve willingness for self-sufficiency in self-sufficiency program participating workers.

This study collected opinions about the design and management of toothbrushing facilities from schoolteachers and the people in charge of public centers, through a focus group interview (FGI), for the development of guidelines. Four moderators conducted eight FGIs of 32 subjects in charge of toothbrushing facilities across all the regions. The qualitative data was analyzed by constant comparative analysis. The findings indicated that more students utilized the facility and brushed their teeth after the installation of toothbrushing facilities. To enhance students' accessibility and safety, guidelines for design and management guidelinesfor toothbrushing facilities need to be developed; the location, sink height and depth, drain size, etc. should be comprehensively considered in the development of the guidelines. This study can help to improve students' satisfaction by enhancing the accessibility, safety, and functionality of toothbrushing facilities, and by providing fundamental data for toothbrushing facilities' development. Finally, this study can maximize the effects of management of toothbrushing facilities management on the improvement of students' oral health and behaviors.
