Purpose: This study was done to evaluate the operating status of community-based home health center for revitalization of the centers. Method: In this study performance data including organization plan and service utilization plan were evaluated according process theory. Target of evaluation was the community-based home health care center. Results: The vulnerable part of the organization was the information system and financial resources. The home health center introduced PDA (Personal Digital Assistants) in 2005, however home health care nurses did not make full use of it. This service received full support from Seoul city and local government and there were no other sources of income. The vulnerable part of service utilization was service expansion and standardization due to vulnerability of organizational aspects. Conclusions: The home health care center provides high quality services to underprivileged people. In the future, these services should be provided with equity for continuous health care for this population.

Method: Data were collected in a PBL class of 14 third-year students who solved problems and assessed PBL in community health nursing related to visiting nursing and chronic diseases. Results: The students guessed situations diversely, chose learning issues widely and mapped the learning concepts specifically. In the assessment of the presentation, the peers of the same group gave the highest score $29.00{\pm}3.36$, the tutor lowest score $22.83{\pm}5.15$. In 5-point Likerts scale, the group dynamic was highest ($4.18{\pm}.61$) and the presentation was lowest ($3.59{\pm}.84$). Conclusion: The group needs to include students who have experiences in the practice at the health centers. The PBL class should be managed by the block system along with the conventional learning. Students needs to practice the self-directed learning and the presentation in a first semester and then PBL. The introduction of community health nursing begins with the conventional lecture and the programs on life circle and health centers through PBL in the comprehensive curriculums.

Government provides financial support to the 74 Home help service centers, 36 Day care service centers, and 18 Short stay service centers for the elderly. The number of service centers that receive financial support from the government is far less to meet the potential demand for the community care services. This paper applies cost-benefit analysis to evaluate the net social benefit of the services provided by the 3 types of the community care service centers sponsored by the government to justify the expansion of the government support. The benefit is calculated as community care services are provided privately in the market without financial support from the government. The potential market price is regarded as the benefit or value provided to the elderly. The price levels that potential users are willing to pay for these services are surveyed in the Census for the Elderly by the KIHASA, 1998. The market prices for the community services are generated by equating limited amount of service supply, as in number of users in one year in 3 types of community care service centers, and potential demand for the services. Market prices are multiplied to the number of users of 3 types of community centers to get the total benefit. Total operating cost of the community care service centers is regarded as cost. According to the cost-benefit analysis, Home-help service centers generated net social benefit of 137 billion Won, Day Care service centers generated 15 billion Won, and Short stay service centers generated 6 billion Won. Significant amount of net social benefit indicates that government should increase level of financial support to these service centers.

Recently, there has been an increasing need for long-term care and comprehensive health care services in community settings. The Ministry of Health and Welfare introduced the Hospital-Based Home Nursing Care Program in 2000. Before this initiative, there was a Home Nursing Demonstration Center, affiliated with the Seoul Nurse Association, had offered home nursing services with the financial support from the local government. since 1993, the Center's nursing staff has been engaged in a general hospital in an effort to provide home nursing care services within Korea's health care system. The purpose of this study was to analyze and identify characteristics of community-based home nursing care supplied by a community-based home nursing team engaged in a general hospital. Also. visit nursing care services provided by public health centers were evaluated in terms of accessibility and supply versus demand, to enhance the accessibility of low-income patients living in Seoul to home nursing care services. Data were collected from home nursing insurance reimbursement claims submitted by the community-based home nursing care team from March 1 to October 30 in 2001 and a questionnaire survey on home-visit nursing services of 25 public health centers in Seoul. The subjects consisted of 197 patients and 12 public health centers. The result were as follows. First, medical institution's community-based home nursing care program was better in technical quality than health-center-based home-visit nursing care. In addition. the pattern of the subject patients was similar to that of hospital-based home nursing care program. Second, there was a high demand for community-based home nursing care while only a small number of home-visiting nurses served at public health centers in Seoul. As a result, many patients could not receive adequate care. Finally, we suggest that community-based home nursing care program should be introduced in the national health system to meet the at-home care needs of severely ill low-income patients. Furthermore, to better utilize home nursing and visit-nursing care resources and offer continued care for patients in community settings, an efficient referral network should be built among related institutions. This would require improvement of reimbursement system and amendment of the law related to health insurance system and community-based home nursing care services.

Method: The subjects included 114 SPR pt. people who were enrolled in community mental health centers located in D City. The research was conducted during the period from Aug. 1st, 2002 to Jul. 30th, 2004. The instruments were PANSS developed by Kay(1987) and SUMD developed by Amador(1993). Results: Among the pathological syndromes, positives ones were $12.64{\pm}3.80$ on the average, negative ones were $32.00{\pm}5.36$, and general pathological syndromes were $30.50{\pm}6.24$. In the evaluation of the insights, the mean score was $11.81{\pm}5.09$. There were some significant correlations between positive syndromes and general pathological ones (r=.572, p=.000), and negative syndromes and general pathological ones(r=.262, p=.029), while there was no significant correlation between the insights and the sub-measures of general pathological syndromes. Conclusion: Therefore, the schizophrenic patients taking advantage of the community mental health centers have more negative syndromes than those in hospitalized, and rehabilitation programs are needed to help them continuously. And the further study of the correlations between the pathological syndromes and the degrees of the insights are required, and still, it should be analyzed what effects the insight acquirement brings about to the improvements of the pathological syndromes after the application of the insight-oriented programs.

부산광역시는 지역사회기반 마을건강센터를 운영하고 있는데 이는 경제적 취약계층을 중심으로 제공되는 보건의료서비스와는 달리, 개인이 아닌 마을 공동체를 중심으로 건강증진 서비스 제공하는 목적을 갖고 있다. 2021년 기준 부산 지역 내 71개소 센터가 설치되어 운영 중이고 본 논문에서는 마을건강센터를 디지털 전환하는 방법을 모색하고자 한다. 마을건강센터에서 활용가능한 디지털 기술은 첫째, 스마트 기기를 활용한 건강지표 구축으로 각종 질환의 관리체계를 고도화하는 것, 둘째, 사물인터넷으로 모바일 기술과 함께 로그 라이프 등 각종 건강지표관리 관리하는 것, 셋째, 지능형 로봇으로 독거노인의 말벗과 위급상황 알리미로 활용하는 것이다.
