본 연구는 노인복지시설 이용자의 인구학적 특성에 따른 노화에 대한 태도와 우울에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 경기도 소재의 15곳의 기관에 280명의 시설이용 노인을 대상으로 하여 설문을 실시하였으며, 최종적으로 258명의 자료를 분석에 사용하였다. 측정도구는 노화에 대한 태도 척도, 치료자의 태도 척도, 우울의 척도를 사용하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 성별에 따른 노인복지시설 이용자의 노화에 대한 태도, 우울에 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 최종학력에 따른 노인복지시설 이용자의 노화에 대한 태도, 우울에서는 최종학력이 높을수록 긍정적인 노화에 대한 태도와 우울을 나타냈다. 셋째, 노인복지시설 이용경험에 따른 노화에 대한 태도, 우울에서는 이용 경험이 있는 많은 노인들이 노화에 대한 신체적 변화에서 긍정적인 유의미한 차이가 나타났다. 따라서 연구결과 노화에 대한 태도가 부정적이어서 꼭 우울하다고 판단할 수는 없으나 최종학력에서는 높은 관련성이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 노인복지시설에서 근무하는 치료자들은 노인들을 치료, 케어함에 있어 최종학력이 낮을수록, 이용했던 시설의 수가 적을수록 노화에 대한 태도가 부정적일 수 있고 이는 곧 우울감을 높일 수 있는 요인이 될 수도 있음을 알아야 할 것이다.

Recently (2010), South Korea's aging rate is 11%. and expected to be 32.3% in 2040, and Japan's aging rate in 2010 is 23%, and in 2040 is expected to be 34.5%. As aging progresses, it is increasing with the elderly person with dementia. However, elderly welfare facilities are insufficient. To take care stability of elderly people with mental and physical disabilities, we need to prepare a lot of welfare facilities for the elderly. Whenever physical conditions and service needs change of the disability elderly, Elderly are forced to move to the other facility. They move from familiar places, beloved local base to unfamiliar places. They are under a lot of stress in order to adapt to new environment. This research is to check out the possibility of the systems and the effectiveness of various services and the flexibility of management in Japan. Takurosyo is responsible for a variety function of elderly medical welfare facilities. Within a short time, our country, has entered into a super-aged society, elderly health and welfare facilities are needed. However, because it requires enormous financial, it is difficult to build a new building in reality, However, if remodeling existing buildings, We can build many low-cost small-scale multi-functional welfare facilities such as the takurosyo. Such that facility would be available to us.

With the overall revision of the Welfare of the Aged Act in 1997, elderly welfare facilities have developed differently according to the size of locality, capacity, and social and economic characteristics. In response to the problem, various plans are being executed for expanding services and facilities for the aged. However, such efforts by the government have been focused on quantitative increase rather than on qualitative improvement, and there are not many high-quality elderly welfare facilities that meet the needs of the consumers, namely, the aged. In contrast, elderly welfare centers in Japan began to be founded from the 1960s and increased significantly from the 1970s and, as a result, 2,214 elderly welfare centers were in operation in 1995, maintaining a high level in quantity as well as in quality. Therefore, the present study surveyed using a checklist how elderly welfare centers in Japan, which are playing central roles in welfare facility services for the aged in Japan, design their indoor spaces reflecting elders' behavior and characteristics and, based on the results of the survey, classified spaces into shared spaces and individual service spaces and analyzed the spaces of each center using the checklist. The results from this case study will be used as basic data to establish standards for the space composition of elderly welfare facilities in Korea, which has 10 years' short history of elderly welfare facilities.

현재 노인복지회관은 1981년 제정된 노인복지법에 근거한 노인여가시설로 규정되어, 각 시도별로 건립되고 있지만, 각 시설 관에서 제공하는 다양한 서비스가 체계화되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 더욱이 지방자치제의 전면적 실시로 인해 각 자치단체별로 건립이 급속히 증가하고 있다. 호남지역의 경우 2005년 36개소가 운영 중이며 노인복지회관의 건립 형태를 보면, 노인인구를 고려하여 건립되기보다는 지방자치단체별로 건져되고 있어 이용서비스프로그램 및 그에 대응하는 공간구성계획이나 면적구성계획들에 관한 세부계획이 전무한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 호남지역의 노인복지회관을 조사대상으로 연면적분류에 따른 이용서비스프로그램 공간분류와 공간위치를 비교 분석하였으며, 각 이용공간으로 상담지도공간, 의료재활공간, 사회교육공간, 복리후생공간, 관리공간의 각 시설의 공간규모와 구성을 조사 분석하였다. 이를 기반으로 본 연구는 연면적에 따른 이용서비스공간구성과 규모를 분석하여 향후 노인복지회관의 공간구성계획 시 필요한 기초자료를 제시하는데 그 목적이 있다.

Canada is a democratic country, yet it keeps a social democratic system in which the government is in charge of welfare of its people. And this is one of the most significant features about the country. Her public and private pension system has been effective since the 1920s, securing its people's fundamental income. In particular, the public medical system applies to its every citizen and performs its role. This system is called the National Medical System as well as "MEDICARE" named after its related law. However, there has been a significant change in the national medical and welfare policy due to the budget deficit. In other words, the policy was mainly implemented to welfare facilities in the past, but the policy changed to a welfare policy for the elderly with a concentration on the support for self-reliance of senior citizens since the reform. The purpose of this study is to provide data and implications for Korea through the analysis of the current situation and distinct features of the housing welfare system in Canada. This study has researched the literature on the subject with an analytic focus on three aspects that are the fundamental frame of the system, essential content (support for self-reliance and facility composition), and distinct features of the housing for the elderly. In other words, they are, first, how the fundamental frame of the housing welfare system for the elderly is composed; second, how the service for self-reliance welfare and facility service are composed; and third, what their scale and distinct spatial features of general houses for the elderly with self-reliance are. A comparative study was conducted in detail on courses and characteristics of the housing welfare system for senior citizens in Canada and the USA of North America. In particular, it reveals the scale and distinct spatial features of public houses for the elderly with self-reliance in British Columbia (BC) which is one of the main provinces of Canada.

Like all other European countries, as a result of gradual industrialization, Germany is just before the start of new social system; the so-called 'aged society'. Over half of the century, Germany focused their welfare system on facilities. However, with the start of the new 'aged society', they introduced a new concept which consists mainly on home care and community care. These new concepts resulted from the general idea that even elderly have the right to live an independent quality life. Therefore, to satisfy the elderly with such life it has been seen as necessary not only to offer them efficient protection but to introduce an economical welfare system and facility scheme. The regional integration plan for welfare is one of the open schemes in which the lifestyle of the elderly are seen as the whole. Participated by several members and specialists of all social standings, necessary facilities are planned. By looking into a project example carried out in Germany, this study is aimed to increase the quality of the elderly welfare system and facility construction plan.

Because the psychophysical symptoms of hearing loss and dementia in the elderly are very similar, untrained healthcare professionals in dementia facilities can easily overlook a severity of hearing loss in their patients. The present study identifies their knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) on hearing loss using a survey whether they may help hearing problem of the patients with dementia. A total of 29 health-care professionals responded to the KAP survey. Also, 2 family members participated. The results showed that most of the nurses and caregivers in elderly medical welfare facilities who worked with dementia patients did not have knowledge of their hearing loss. Even the facility managers did not know how to conduct hearing tests for their patients although they did recognize that some of their patients had a hearing loss. Eventually, actual practice was not possible at this moment by the professionals. However, our respondents did have a positive attitude toward screening for hearing loss and help their patients with dementia wear hearing aids if a clinical guideline was provided. We suggest to develop clear and precise clinical guidelines of the hearing screening test for the dementia patients due to the interrelationship between dementia and hearing loss. When these guidelines apply to elderly residents in a medical welfare facility, early diagnosis and treatment of their sensory loss will help alleviate their dementia as well.

According to a study on the accident patterns of older people in 2006 by Korea Consumer Agency (CISS), the number of accidents of the elderly at home reached 486, and the figure has increased every year. As Korea is about to enter into the aged society, it is important to investigate the factors that cause an accident in the welfare facilities for the aged and establish the barrier-free construction standards. The accident influence factors include facility environmental, physical functional, socio demographic and socio psychological factors. In terms of the verification tools, there are Facility Evaluation Index, FIM, MMSE-K and General Feature. In terms of analysis method, in addition, there are real number, percentage, t-test, ANOVA and logistic regression. In conclusion, this paper attempts to reveal correlations among the accident influence factors using the Facility Evaluation Standards (115 items in total) for facility environmental factor, FIM (3 items) for physical functional factor, MMSE-K (6 items) for socio psychological factor and questionnaire (5 items) for socio demographic factor.
