Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the worker's service quality of the elders at a nursing home. Methods: A total of 371 workers, who were engaged in caring for the elders at a nursing home in B-Metropolitan city and Kyungnam, answered the questionnaires regarding the knowledge & skills of service, information cognition and service quality for the elders related to their clients. Results: Service quality for the elders was significantly correlated to the level of knowledge and skills, as well as the information cognition for the elders, and frequency of educational participation. Service quality for the elders was statistically significant predictors of knowledge and skills, and information cognition for the elders. These two variables accounted for 37% of the variance in service quality for the elders. Conclusion: In order to improve the worker's care level, the workers engaged in caring for the elders should make the efforts to be given a nursing education related to the knowledge & skills, as well as the information for the elders.

This study empirically analyzes the effect of pedestrians' personal and household characteristics and accessibility to public facilities on a walking safety satisfaction (WSS) level. The aim is to find ways to improve vulnerable pedestrians' WSS level and contribute to the creation of an inclusive urban environment. As a result of the analysis, age and gender variables were important for elderly people, and education was an important factor for disabled people. The WSS level was impacted by the factors of single-person households, income, and residential areas. In the case of accessibility to public facilities, the greater the satisfaction with accessibility to public institutions, urban parks and green areas, and public transport, the greater the WSS for the elderly and the disabled. And, the greater the satisfaction with accessibility to commercial facilities, the greater the WSS was for the elderly's WSS. However, the satisfaction with access to medical facilities was the opposite in the case of the elderly.

In Korea, multi-functional senior residential complexes have become very popular since the end of 1990 by integrating the functions of nursing homes and health care facilities, so that the elderly can maintain their regular healthy life and receive health care when needed depending on their aging stage. Accordingly, it is increasingly important to conduct research on such multi-functional residential facilities. In this study, 6 cases of Korean senior residential complexes and 6 cases of comparable Japanese facilities, which were built earlier than Korea, are compared, and the following results are derived from the comparison. 1. In terms of the shared space, the parallel type and the unified type are found to share more space among complex types. Especially, the low-story concentration type and the eccentric type are found to share space the most. 2. In Korea, an average shared rate is found to be 46.8%; and the rates of a supplied-space, a common-shared-space, and a maintenance-space are found to be 29.73%, 36.33%, and 32.93%, respectively. In Japan's case, an average shared space is found to be 22.31%; and the corresponding rates for the above 3 spaces.

노인인구가 증가하면서 노인 건강관리를 비롯한 여러가지 복지대책이 중요한 사회적 관심사로 대두되고 있다. 그중에서도 치매노인의 관리 문제는 노인 복지 측면에서, 반드시 해결해야 할 최대의 과제로 떠오르고 있다. 그러나 외국에 비해 양로원 시설도 충분히 갖추어지지 못한 우리의 실정에서 이 치매노인을 위한 복지는 사실상 전무한 상태다. 이러한 가운데서 지난 1월 우리나라 최초로 서울시 북부노인종합복지관(서울시 노원구 하계동 중계 9단지 내)에서 치매탁로소를 열어, 치매노인이 있는 가정에 새로운 희망을 던져주고 있다. 서울시 거주 치매노인이면 누구나 이용할 수 있는 치매탁로소의 개소 의의와 이용방법을 소개한다.

본 연구는 노인복지시설의 성과평가에 미치는 우선순위 결정요인을 파악한다. 이론적 고찰과 선행연구를 통하여 노인 복지시설에 미치는 결정요인을 설정하였다. Saaty의 계층분석과정(Analytic Hierarchy Process; AHP)를 활용하여 각각의 결정요인들에 대한 가중치와 우선순위를 분석하였다. 노인복지는 특정한 분야로 한정되어 있지 않기 때문에 양적인 방법만으로 설명하는 것은 한계가 있다. 따라서 질적 및 양적 방법을 활용할 수 있는 계층분석과정방법과 SPSS프로그램을 이용하여 실증분석을 하였다. 노인복지시설의 분석결과를 요약하면 투입에 대한 상대적 중요도를 분석한 결과 예산이 가장 높게 나왔으며, 산출에 대한 상대적 중요도를 분석한 결과는 운영체계화와 노인복지성이 가장 높게 나타났다. 세부항목 간의 상대적 중요도를 분석한 결과는 결산서와 전문인력이 가장 높게 나타났다. 시설유형별 투입요인은 이용시설과 생활시설 모두 예산이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 산출요인은 이용시설은 운영체계화, 생활시설은 노인복지성이 가장 높게 나타났다. 노인복지시설에 미치는 결정요인에 따른 몇 가지 구체적인 정책적 시사점을 대안으로 제시하였다.

This study was conducted to explore the experience and its meaning of the elderly residents in long-term care facilities(LTCFs). It is aimed to find the role of family and society for the qualitative care of elderly living in LTCF and to seek social welfare measures. For this purpose, qualitative research data was collected by conducting in-depth interviews and participation observations on 8 elderly residents at 4 LTCFs in Seoul, Incheon, and Gyeonggi Province. The collected data were analyzed using Giorgi's phenomenological research method. The analysis results show that 33 semantic units, 14 subcomponents, and 4 upper components. The 4 upper components showed up as 「Crumbling my existence」, 「The life thrown into an unfamiliar environment」, 「New relationship where discomfort and gratitude coexist」 and 「My life I want to find」. Among them, 「My life I want to find」 was the essence of the living experiences of elderly residents in LTCF. Through this study, it was suggested creating an environment to provide facilities access preparation program for the elderly, developing and activating various family participation programs, providing conditions of Aging in place for the elderly, and developing and activating community resource linkage programs.

본 연구의 목적은 최근 증가하고 있는 고령 인구를 위해 여러 가지 요인을 고려하여 노인만을 대상으로 하는 여가 만족도를 산출하는 것이다. 노인의 여가 만족도에 영향을 주는 요인으로 '여가시설', '노인 인구', '노인 건강', '노인 소득'을 산정하였다. 해당 요인들에 가중치를 분배하여 산정하기 위한 방법으로 PCA와 선형회귀를 사용하였다. 위 과정을 통해 제작된 노인 여가 만족도 지표에 인자값을 투입하여 자치구별로 노인 여가 만족도 점수를 산출하였고, 스코어 카드를 통해 현황을 살펴보았다. 본 연구는 산출된 각 자치구별 여가 만족도 점수와 인자에 해당하는 점수를 파악하여, 여가만족도가 낮은 지역들의 취약 분야를 파악하고 취약 분야를 중점으로 여가 만족도를 개선해나갈 것을 제안한다.
