Purpose : The purpose of this study was to validate the Korean version of Partners In Health scale (PIH-K) which is used to measure the self-management of patients with chronic illnesses in Korea. Methods : Translation of the 12-item PIH-K was conducted according to the World Health Organization guidelines. Data from 306 participants who took medicines over 3 months by doctor's prescription were collected from October to November 2017. Validity such as content validity, construct validity, and concurrent validity were conducted using content validity index (CVI), exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (CFA). To evaluate concurrent validity, the correlation coefficients between the PIH-K and concurrent scales (Self-As-Carer Inventory) were calculated. The reliability of the PIH-K was examined using the internal consistency and test-retest reliability tests. Results : The CVI of the PIH-K was 0.91. According to the CFA, factor loadings for four factors ranged from .64 to .97, which explained 67.5% of the total variance. The PIH-K was significantly correlated with concurrent variables such as those on the Self-As-Carer Inventory. The Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ was .86 and the intraclass correlation coefficient for the two-week test-retest reliability was .88. Conclusion : Findings show that the PIH-K is reliable and valid in measuring self-management of patients with chronic illnesses.

본 연구는 재활병원에 입원하여 뇌신경계 재활 치료를 받고 있는 환자의 가족부담감 정도와 일반적 특성, 질병특성에 따른 부담감의 차이를 파악하고, 융합적인 영향요인을 규명하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 재활병원에서 재활 치료중인 환자의 주 돌봄제공자인 가족 113명을 대상으로 설문조사하여 SPSS statistics 22 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과는 환자가족의 부담감 수준은 평균 3.16로 나타났고, 가족의 부담감은 돌봄자의 연령, 교육수준, 돌봄자와의 관계에서 유의한 차이가 있었으며, 환자의 질병관련 특성에 따른 가족부담감은 유의한 차이가 없었다. 마지막으로 가족의 부담감에 미치는 영향 요인을 확인한 결과 돌봄자의 연령, 학력, 종교, 환자와의 관계가 예측요인으로 나타났다. 재활치료중인 가족부담감을 낮추는 중재 프로그램 개발에 일반적 특성을 고려할 필요가 있을 것이다.

Background: Rapid population aging in developed countries has resulted in the working-age population increasingly being tasked with the provision of informal care. Methods: An educational intervention was delivered to 21 carer-employees employed at a Canadian University. Work role function, job security, schedule control, work-family conflict, familywork conflict, and supervisor and coworker support were measured as part of an aggregated workplace experience score. This score was used to measure changes pre/post intervention and at a follow-up period approximately 12 months post intervention. Three random intercept models were created via linear mixed modeling to illustrate changes in participants' workplace experience across time. Results: All three models reported statistically significant random and fixed effects intercepts, with a positive coefficient of change. Conclusion: This suggests that the intervention demonstrated an improvement of the workplace experience score for participants over time, with the association particularly strong immediately after intervention.

지역사회 내의 노인의 독립적 생활을 지원하기 위하여, 미국과 영국은 오래 전부터 비공식 돌봄자에 대한 지원을 정책적으로 마련하였다. 본 연구는 최근 미국의 가족 돌봄자 지원법(The Recognize, Assist, Include Support and Engage, RAISE)과 영국의 돌봄자법 2014(Carer Act 2014)를 바탕으로 새로운 정책적 전략과 이에 관련한 문서를 분석하여 비공식 돌봄자를 위한 정책을 검토하여 국내 시사점을 찾고자 하였다. 미국의 경우는 가족 비공식 돌봄자의 역할을 확대하여 신약개발 및 치료방법 개발에 일정 부분 개입을 시켜 환자와 돌봄자 중심의 가정의로 환경 모델을 기획하고 있다. 무엇보다, 영국은 노동시장에서의 돌봄자 지원정책을 심화하였다. 근무하는 비공식 돌봄자를 다각적 방법으로 지원하는 것이 노동시장에서 경제적으로 효율적이라는 실증적 연구와 연계하여 근거 중심의 지원 정책을 시도하고 있었다. 재정적 지원, 직접 서비스 제공, 유연 근무, 권익 보장이라는 네 범주 안에서 지원되는 미국과 영국의 비공식 돌봄의 지원정책은 돌봄의 가치 인정과 돌봄자의 건강권과 인권에 대한 보장이라는 근본적인 합의를 토대로 이루어졌다. 현재 국내에서 장기요양정책과 노인복지 정책에서 제공되고 있는 비공식 돌봄자에 정책적인 지원들이 근거를 중심으로 지원된다면, 지역사회 내의 통합적인 돌봄 체계의 실질적인 효과가 있으리라 본다.

Purpose: To examine factors affecting long-term care hospital patients' intention of transfer to a nursing home. Method: A questionnaire survey was conducted in Aug. 2007 that included 655 patients from 49 long-term care hospitals. The survey aimed to assess the patients' health status, family status, cost and intention of transfer to a nursing home. Institutional characteristics were analyzed from the nationwide database of Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service. The affecting factors were examined by employing chi-square test and logistic regression using SAS 8.2. Result: Of the subjects, 32.4% had intention of transfer to a nursing home. The intention of transfer to a nursing home was affected by moderate or severe pain, living together with the primary carer, high cost uncovered by insurance, and recognition of nursing home. Conclusion; For appropriate service utilization. a higher level of care is needed to satisfy patients at nursing homes and a balanced fee schedule is needed between long term care hospitals and nursing homes. It is desirable to encourage transfer to a nursing home at which nurses support patients and their families by giving information, coordination, and to make efforts to establish a reference system.

Applying evolved IT technology to increase the satisfaction of the consumer is a typical feature of the rapidly transformed service industry. Smart devices have taken a place as the mainstream of major media, moreover, IT service strategies utilizing smart devices have been constantly developed. Location recognition method of users has been proposed as one of the significant features to the IT service industry. The long-term care home services can be one example of user location recognition methods that real time computerization of service record utilize an attached tag to home of pensioners with RFID reader or an NFC function of mobile when a home carer provides service. And, the Homecare Electronics Management System (HEMS) and the various location recognition methods will be discussed to improve effectiveness of services.

The purpose of this study was to obtain a fundamental data for developing a policy concerning women and child rearing and a parent education program for young parents who are around their childbirth, a period crucially important both for the parents in terms of the role adjustment, career management, and family finance, and for the infants in terms of its physical and psychological well-being. The subjects were 509 mothers before and after childbirth currently living in the Metropolitan City of Daejeon. Data were obtained through questionnaires and interviews in two major areas of pregnancy-delivery-childcare and parent education. Data were analyzed using SAS, mostly through frequency analysis, percentiles, t-tests, and F-tests. Results of descriptive analyses were organized along the following areas and issues: Pregnancy(family planning, regular check-ups, difficulties, prenatal education, costs, etc.); delivery(type of delivery, delivery related experience, costs, clinic/medical institute of choice, worries/problems, help/supports, etc.); postpartum care(place, kinds of help and helper, costs, postpartum care facilities, etc.); childcare circumstances(place, carer, time schedules, childcare centers or facilities feeding and weaning, etc.); husband's attitudes and involvement in the overall process; working mothers(maternity leave, temporary retirement for child rearing, etc.); and, parent education(family planning, pregnancy, delivery, postpartum care, child rearing, areas or issues needing parent education, facilitative and hindering factors to ideal parenting, etc.).

본 논문은 호주의 국가정신보건전략에 대한 주요 내용과 국가정신보건전략을 통한 정신보건개혁 이후의 변화들, 그리고 정신보건개혁에 대한 논의를 통해서 우리나라의 정신보건정책의 문제점들을 개선하기 위한 현실적인 시사점과 융복합 정책적 함의를 찾는데 그 목적이 있다. 1992년에 발표되어 2008년에 개정된 국가정신보건정책, 1993년부터 2014년까지 네 차례에 걸쳐 수립된 국가정신보건 5개년 계획, 2006년 호주정부협의회에 의해 수립된 정신보건실행계획, 그리고 2012년 호주정부협의회에서 채택한 국가정신보건개혁을 위한 로드맵(2012-2022)을 포함한 국가정신보건전략은 지난 20년 동안 호주의 정신보건개혁의 광범위한 과정을 선도하는 대단히 중요한 정책 준거를 제공하였다. 1992년 시작된 국가정신보건전략을 통해서 정신보건재정 확충, 지역사회 중심의 치료 및 보호시스템 구축, 정신병상의 변화, NGO의 참여와 역할의 증대, 정신장애인과 가족(보호제공자)의 참여 확대 등과 같은 변화를 이루었다.
