본 논문은 일개 지역암센터에서 제공되는 재가암환자관리프로그램의 만족도와 요구에 대한 조사를 통해 프로그램의 질 향상을 높이기 위해 시행하였다. 재가암환자관리에 등록된 된 환자와 보호자를 대상으로 2015년 3월부터 2015년 10월까지 자체적으로 개발된 설문지를 통해 면대면으로 조사를 시행하였다. 환자 59명과 보호자 41명, 총 101명을 대상으로 설문조사가 이루어졌다. 암종에서는 유방암이 주된 암이었으며 재가암환자의 방문회수에 대하여 51명(86%)의 환자와 36명(85%)의 환자 보호자가 만족하였다. 서비스 신청경로는 환자의 경우 암센터홍보지가 22명(37.29%), 보호자의 경우에는 주변사람의 권유가 11명(26.19%)으로 가장 많았다. 환자에게 직접 제공되는 처치를 제외하고 가장 선호하는 것은 심리상담이었으며, 나들이와 암종별 교육의 만족도도 높게 나타났다. 프로그램의 만족도는 5점 척도에서 $4.14{\pm}1.21$로 비교적 높게 나왔으며 환자가 보호자보다 높았으나 통계적으로 의미는 없었다($4.29{\pm}1.11$, $3.93{\pm}1.31$, p=0.141). 자아존중감은 보호자가 환자보다 높았으나 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 향후 재가암환자와 보호자들의 삶의 질을 높일 수 있도록 심리상담과 환자의 경제적인 상황을 고려한 맞춤형 프로그램개발이 필요할 것이다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to develop a tool to assess the need for hospice care in families of patients with cancer. Method : Research design was a methodological study. The tool was developed in 3 stages : first, preliminary items were developed based on a questionnaire about the needs for hospice care that was given to 8 families of patients with cancer; second, a panel of specialists reduced the number of preliminary items using 2 validity tests on the contents. Finally, reliability and validity were tested by a sample of 98 families who have a patient with cancer from April 2003 to July 2004. Result: Cronbach's alpha coefficient for internal consistency was .94 for the final total 22 items. Using the factor analysis, 4 factors with eigenvalue of more than 1.0 were extracted and these factors explained 65% of the total variance. The four factors were labeled as 'control of terminal physical problems', 'emotional care', 'spiritual care for preparing for death', and 'family support'. The final items of the tool developed on the need of hospice care consisted of 22 items. Conclusion : The instrument, for accessing the need for hospice care in families of patients with cancer, developed in this study was identified as a tool with a high degree of reliability and validity. In this sense, this tool can be effectively utilized for implementing and improving hospice care for patients with terminal cancer.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the need for hospice care programs in families of patients with cancer. Method: The study surveyed 98 families who were taking care of patients with cancer. This survey was conducted from August 2004 to October 2004 at two general hospitals in Seoul. The data were collected through a self-reporting questionnaire of 22 items. The items were classified into five areas by factor analysis to identify the construct validity. The reliability of the tool was established by Cronbach's alpha as .93 and the data collected were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test and ANOVA. Results: 1) The degree of need for hospice care of the subjects showed a high average of $3.26({\pm}3.7$). The need for 'emotional care of patients showed the highest mean' (M=3.47), 'management of terminal physical symptoms' (M=3.34), 'control of secondary physical problems' (M =3.26), 'acceptance of the family's difficulty' (M=3.12), 'spiritual care for preparing for death' (M=2.96), respectively. 2) With respect to the demographic characteristics of the subjects, there were statistically significant differences in hospice care needs, according to the onset of diagnosis (F=3.110, p=.030). Conclusion: Hospice care must be provided considering the needs of families of patients with cancer. In this sense, this country's needs as well as hospice nurses' higher concern and support for hospice care of patients require further education and program development to meet the current demands.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of integrated psychoeducational program for distress management of newly diagnosed patients with breast cancer. Methods: A quasi-experimental trial was conducted. The participants consisted of 47 female patients with breast cancer assigned to an intervention group (n=25) and control group (n=22). The intervention group participated in integrated psychoeducational program, consisting of individual face-to-face education and telephone-delivered health-coaching sessions. Data were collected at three time points: pre-intervention (T1), post-intervention (T2), and 6-month follow-up (T3). Study instruments were Distress thermometer, Supportive Care Needs Survey Short Form 34 and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast. Results: Compared with the control group, breast cancer patients in the intervention group reported lower distress and supportive care needs than the control group. The intervention group reported higher quality of life (QOL) overall and higher emotional well-being than the control group. Conclusion: These findings indicate that the integrated psychoeducational program is an effective intervention for reducing distress and supportive care needs and increasing QOL of newly diagnosed patients with breast cancer. Oncology nurses need to provide psychoeducational intervention to support patients with breast cancer in managing their distress and helping them adjust to their life.
