This study was conducted on 31 opticians (11 male and 20 female) working at medical institutions through a self-reporting method survey. Through the survey, basic information of the subjects and the information and satisfaction level of the medical institution on duty were investigated and analyzed. There were many people who had a license for optometrist but did not do optometrist work, and the married people were less satisfied with their work and the proportion of people who did not do optometrist work was higher. The cause of these problems was salary. Opticians who needed higher salaries for marriage and other reasons were able to increase their salaries by adding other tasks in their own areas. This unsatisfactory salary at medical institutions has led to a shortage of optometrists at ophthalmic clinics.

한국의 농촌 보건의료 문제를 해결 하기위하여 일차보건의료가 도입되었으며 일차보건의료에서 핵심적인 역할을 수행하고 있는 보건진료원의 활동을 분석하였다. 분석 목적은 보건진료원의 일반현황과 보건진료원 활동에 대한 구체적인 분석을 통하여 활동개선 방안을 제시하는데있다. 분석방법은 사회조사 방법을 적용하였으며 조사는 1998년 7월과 11월기간에 구조화된 설문지를 보건진료원 전원에게 송부하여 스스로 작성하게 하였다. 1880명의 보건진료원을 대상으로 설문지를 배포하였으며, 1663명의 응답자가 작성한 설문지가 최종분석되었으므로 분석율은 88.5%였다. 분석결과 보건진료원의 일반현황으로 광역사의 보건진료원 평균 연령은 39.7세이며 시지역 보건진료원의 연령이 군지역보다 높았으며 통계적으로도 유의한 차이가 있었다. 총근무기간도 시지역의 보건진료원의 12.4년-13.6년으로 농촌지역보다 걸었으며 통계적으로도 유의한 차이가 있었다. 보건진료원의 평균 관할 인구수는 901명이었다. 보건진료소 관할지역의 노인인구 및 만성질환자의 분포가 매우 높았다. 보건진료소로부터 민간의료기관이 위치한 거리는 시지역 (7.1-11.3km) 보다 농촌지역이 12.1km로서 지리적 접근성이 시지역보다 낫은 것으로 나타났다. 활동건수분석결과 월평균 가정방문수는 평균 47.8건, 일평균 내소자수는 14.1건 및 일평균 전화상담은 5.2건으로 나타났다. 연령별 활동수준은 40세이상이 4세 이하보다 월평균 가정방문수와 일평균 내소자수가 많았으며 통계적요로도 유의한 차이가 있었다. 경력이 많을수록 일평균가정 방문수 및 전화상담 건수가 많았으며 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 근무조건에 대한 만족도는 80%정도로 높았다. 연구결과 보건진료원의 활동지역내 노인인구 및 만성질환자의 비율이 높고 민간의료기관의 지리적 접근성도 낮고, 관할인구규모가 적어서 인구규모를 늘리고 노인 및 만성질환자 건강관리 프로그램의 개발이 더욱 요구되며 농촌지역주민의 건강관리자로서 보건진료원의 활동을 강화할 필요가 있다.

Twenty-two (46.8%) hospitals and centers were running music therapy programs with 28 music therapists, and 19 (67.9%) of these music therapists majored in music therapy. There was a significant difference between music therapists (M= 3.43, SD = 0.96) and coordinators (M= 2.73, SD = 0.77) regarding conditions and environment of music therapy sessions (p < .05). The circumstances and conditions for music therapy are inad quate for optimal implementation of music therapy practice.

The purpose of this study was to develop a performance measurement factor of Balanced Scorecard(BSC) for health-care organization. We did also the research to evaluate the validity and reliability of these indicators. Fifty six health-care organizations are participated in a survey questionnaires. This questionnaires consists of 53-questions, which are the performance evaluation indicators designed by researcher, which are based on the Norton and Kaplan's BSC-Framework. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was carried out and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was applied to analyze the weight and significances of each factor. Factor analysis of the BSC resulted in 11 major measurement factors (Eigenvalue >1.0). The AHP analysis showed the list of the hospital BSC measurement factors and its KPI(Key Performance Indicator) weighted by its significance priorities. The recommendable degree of reliability and validity of these BSC factors suggests that these factors are adequate for performance measurements of the health-care organizations in Korea.
