고령화시대를 맞아서 한국은 2008년부터 노인장기요양보험을 실시하면서 노인부양부담을 가족으로부터 국가의 책임으로 인식하기 시작하였다. 데이케어센터(주간보호센터)는 사회적 보살핌을 제공하는 시설 중의 하나로 입소생활시설과는 다른 주간이용시설인데 설립초기 자원부족 및 서비스 질 향상 등의 문제가 지적되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 데이케어센터를 지역을 중심으로 접근하면서 그 발전방향을 논의하였다. 또한 전문가심층면접분석을 통해서 데이케어센터의 차후 비전을 제시하였다. 심층분석 결과로는 데이케어센터에서 제공하는 건강케어 프로그램은 지역사회의 문제 및 특성을 반영하여야 하고, 사용자 중심이어야 하며 지역통합적 방식을 취해야 함이 제시되었다.

The purpose of this study is to identify the important factors of education service quality and to develop the evaluation instrument in learning facilities for care workers. This study was processed as four steps. First, the important factors were confirmed through literature reviews and the expert board discussions. Second, the evaluation instrument was developed and validity & reliability of the instrument were checked by factor analysis and Cronbach's ${\alpha}$. Lastly, the instrument was rechecked by the expert board in language usages and importance of the items. The results indicated that the important quality factors were divided with infrastructure and service process. Especially, the process contained providing appropriate education information & counseling, providing appropriate contract & paying fees, keeping specified service principles and so on. The study instrument was developed with 28 items. This instrument will be helpful to improve the education service quality. Besides, the staffs must continuously try to improve and manage their education services using the results of this kind of evaluation instrument.

Purpose: This study was to analyze the factors that affect the service relationship of long term care workers for the elderly and to provide basic resource for the successful connection of long term care services. Methods: 259 subjects who were engaged in long term care units completed a self-administered questionnaire that measured the extent of service linkage among one another. The Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ score determined the internal consistency of the acquired data and the discriminated validity was estimated by Pearson's correlation coefficient. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to investigate the influence of the known factors on the service linkage. Results: Acceptance and participation negatively influenced on the service linkage. Reliance, comprehension, recognition on service, and frequent contact with others positively activated the service linkage of long term care workers. Conclusion: The establishments of systemic training courses providing education that emphasizes reliability and recognizes other services, including work environment to contact easily are needed to improve the service-linkage of long-term care workers for the elderly.

Purpose: This study was conducted to test effects of a cognition activation program on ADL, cognitive functions, depression, and QOL in the institutionalized elderly. Methods: The subjects were 40 elders who were admitted to a nursing home, with 20 of them in the experimental group and the other 20 in the control group. Data were collected from September 1 to December 17, 2012. The experimental group participated in a 12 week intervention program. ADL, cognitive functions, depression, and QOL were measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed by t-test and regression analysis of the SPSS and AMOS programs. Results: ADL (t=2.468, p=.017), depression (t=-2.625, p=012), and QOL (t=2.428, p=.020) were more significantly improved in the experimental group than in the control group, but there were no statistical differences in cognitive function between the two groups. Cognitive functions had positive effects on ADL (CR=-2.263, p=.024) and depression affected QOL (CR=-7.248, p<.001). Conclusion: The intervention program had positive effects on ADL, depression, and QOL except cognition. Cognitive functions of elders dramatically decrease after age 85, and it takes too much time to improve it. Therefore the program for the improvement of cognitive functions should be provided as early as possible.

본 논문에서는 IOT 서비스와 접목하여 사회적 약자를 보호할 수 있는 시스템에 대해 제안하고자 한다. 최근 사회적 약자(영유아, 노인, 환자 등) 대상의 보호시설 내부에서 폭행 사건이 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 안전해야 할 보호시설(보육시설 및 요양원, 실버타운)에서 발생하는 문제로 인해 보호자들은 기관을 신뢰할 수 없게 되었고 이는 매출감소 및 이미지 악화 등의 연쇄적인 사회적 문제로 발전하고 있다. 이러한 문제를 감소시키고자 방범용 CCTV, 녹음 어플리케이션의 사용이 해결책으로서 제시되고 있지만, 폐쇄적인 시스템 구조로 인해 기록의 은폐 및 추가적인 병리 현상 발생의 가능성이 염려 되어 근본적인 문제 해결이 어렵다고 판단되었다. 그래서 보호시설 내부에 비콘과 영상장비를 설치하고 웨어러블과 같은 모바일 디바이스를 활용하여 보호자가 피보호자(사회적 약자)의 위치를 실시간으로 파악하고 상태를 볼 수 있도록 하는 휴먼케어시스템의 개발을 제안하고자 한다.
