The purpose of this study is to examine the influences of coping strategies and vocational self-efficacy on burnout among social workers in long-term care hospitals. Using a convenience sample, researchers collected responses from 138 participants in those long-term care hospitals that have at least 100 sick beds among 528 hospitals(as of September 2015) registered as members of the Korean Association of Geriatric Hospitals. Multiple regression analyses revealed that working hours, externalizing strategies, vocational self-efficacy and group efficacy were significantly correlated with burnout of social workers. In other words, longer working hours led to higher degrees of burnout and higher levels of externalizing strategies, job efficacy, and group efficacy led to lower degrees of burnout in job performance. Based on the study results, it was discussed to relieve the extent of burnout among social workers in long-term care hospitals such as reinforcement of systematic supervision, development of burnout prevention program and on-the job training.

This study examined influencing factors on the attitudes toward elders with a focus on empathy. Data were gathered from 291 nurses working at 14 geriatric hospitals in Kyunggi-Do, Chungchung-Do and Incheon. In analyzing the data, Pearson correlation coefficients, t-test, ANOVA, and regression analysis were adopted. Attitudes toward elders were neutral on the average; those nurses revealed both positive and negative aspects such as friendly, good, kind, conservative, sick and dependent. Of the four empathy scales, only empathic concern revealed significant correlation with the attitudes toward elders. Regression model included empathic concern and the nurses' characteristics. Empathic concern was significant in predicting the attitudes toward elders after controlling for the effects of the nurses' characteristics. Experience of voluntary work for elders was the only predictor among individual characteristics. Explanatory power of the model was 10.7%. We need to develop intervention programs raising empathy among nurses. The instrument measuring empathy needs to be examined.

This study aimed to identify workplace learning, job satisfaction and geriatric nursing practice, find the correlations between each variable, and investigate affecting factors on geriatric nursing practice. Subjects were 146 nurses in 9 long-term care hospitals including G City, and data were collected from May 1, 2016 through Jun. 30, 2016. Data analysis included independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression using the SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. The results showed that the correlations between each variable showed that incidental learning, a subregion of workplace learning (r=.20, p=.014), and job satisfaction (r=.29, p<.001) had a positive correlation with geriatric nursing practice, respectively. The affecting factors on geriatric nursing practice were job satisfaction, daytime working and nursing experience, and the explanatory power of the model was 20%(F=4.91, p<.001). Based on the results, job satisfaction should be increased to improve the quality of nursing in long-term care hospitals and various methods might be discussed to improve the job satisfaction. Daytime working was suggested one factor on geriatric nursing practice because nursing was provided mainly during daytime, and nursing experience was also one factor on geriatric nursing practice, so highly experienced geriatric nurses could provide high quality elderly patient care.

생활 수준 향상과 의학 발달로 평균수명이 증가하면서 노령화가 빠르게 진행되고 있으며, 이로 인해 노인 인구가 급증하고 있는 추세다. 노인 요양병원의 위치가 중요시되고 있지만, 노인 치유환경의 부족과 열악한 상태가 확인되어 연구와 개선이 시급하다. 노인 인구 증가로 노인 의료비가 상승하는 가운데, 노인 요양병원의 의료 서비스 영향을 살펴보고, 법적 규제의 필요성과 노인 의료 시스템의 취약성 극복 방안을 연구하고 있다. 본 연구의 소프트웨어 시스템은 노인 요양원 환자에게 독특하고 혁신적인 경험을 제공하며, 주사, 시술, 수술, 진료뿐만 아니라 긍정적인 마음가짐과 예술적 감각을 통해 치유적인 공간을 조성한다. 이를 통해 환자들은 시각적 자극을 체험하며 긍정적인 영향을 받게 될 것이다.

Objectives : 노인 환자들이 제공받고 있는 치과 의료서비스 만족도를 평가하여 노인 환자에게 양질의 구강보건진료 서비스를 제공하고 노인의 구강보건향상에 기여하기 위하여 실시하였다. 이와 같은 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 노인관련 일반적 특성을 알아보고, 치과 병 의원을 이용하는 노인 환자의 만족도에 미치는 요인 및 병 의원 선택이유를 조사하였다. Methods : 서울특별시와 경기도, 경상도, 전라도 일부지역의 치과병원 및 치과의원을 이용하는 노인 환자 300명을 편의추출 하였으며, 2009년 4월 1일부터 5월 8일까지 면접 및 자기기입법으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문지는 4개영역으로 구분하여 치과 의료서비스 만족도 22문항, 치과위생사의 의료서비스 만족도 14문항, 재이용 권유의사 4문항 및 일반적 특성과 치과이용에 관한 8문항으로 구성하였다. 노인환자의 일반적인 특성에 따른 치과 의료서비스 만족도, 연구대상자의 병원인지경로, 치과선택이유에 따른 치과의료서비스 만족도는 일원배치분산분석(One-way ANOVA)을 실시하였다. 치과의료서비스 만족도 영향인자, 만족도에 미치는 치과위생사 요인 등은 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구대상자의 성별과 병원내원기간에 따른 치과선택이유는 카이제곱 (${\chi}^2$) 분포를 따르는 정확검정(exact test)을 실시하였다. Results : 1. 노인환자들이 병원을 선택할 때 가족, 친척으로부터 추천을 받는 경우가 가장 많으며 이 경우 다른 인지경로에 비하여 치과에 대한 만족도가 가장 높았다. 2. 치과선택 이유에 따른 만족도를 비교하였을 때 첫째, 의사의 높은 진료수준, 둘째, 친절한 서비스에 만족도가 높았다. 또한 치과선택이유가 의사의 높은 진료수준과 친절함을 포함한 의사요인이 가장 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 3. 치과위생사의 높은 진료수준과 친절도는 치과의료서비스 만족도에 유의한 차이를 나타내었다. 노인환자들의 만족도를 높이기 위해 노인에 대한 치위생교육이 필요하고 노인에 대한 지식뿐만 아니라 태도에 대한 교육도 실시되어야 한다. 4. 동일한 치과를 계속적으로 다니는 이유는 첫 번째 의사의 높은 진료수준, 두 번째 친절도로 의사요인과 관련이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 3-4년 이상의 장기내원환자는 의사의 높은 진료수준 다음으로 친절도를 중요한 이유로 선택하였다. Conclusions : 이상의 결과로 노인 환자가 만족하는 치과는 치과의사와 치과위생사의 진료수준이 높아야 하겠고, 다음으로 친절한 서비스가 중요함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 노인환자들의 만족도를 높이기 위해 노인에 대한 치위생교육이 필요하고 노인에 대한 지식뿐만 아니라 태도에 대한 교육도 실시되어야 한다.
