  • The purpose of this study was to investigate unit care characteristics of large skilled nursing facilities for the elderly, which are located in city areas, and to discuss the way of encouraging home-like atmosphere in perspective of spatial unit. First of all, the analysis of five facilities opened before 2002 was performed, based on previous studies, to compare with them opened in recent 5 years. Most of the previous facilities did not have differentiation between their residential and nursing units, and the number of residents in each unit were excessive in comparison with the standard limit(12-28). On the contrary, the facilities established in recent 5 years had systematic spatial unit structure. The residential units had basically rooms and spaces for small group and the number of elderly residents per unit was appropriate on the basis of standard limit which was suggested by Kwon(2002). The nursing units were consist of nursing station, 2-3 residential units, spaces for large group of residents, hair dressing, nurse, living assistant, bathing, storage and etc. But, there was a problem In space usage even though they have distinct unit care systems. Some spaces for groups were empty without residents, furniture, and other equipments, which were necessary for unit care.

  • 본 연구는 요양시설 종사자의 코로나 19 대응 전·후 직종별 스트레스 차이를 알아보고자 시도된 서술적 조사연구이다. 본 연구에서는 2021년 3월 22일에서 4월 25일까지 충청남도와 경기도 지역의 요양시설 종사자들에게 설문조사를 시행하였다. 총 220부의 설문지 중 206부의 설문지가 수거되었으며 자료는 t-test, One way ANOVA, chi-square test 등을 통해 분석되었다. 연구결과에서 요양시설 종사자의 코로나 19 대응 전·후 직무 스트레스 하부영역 차이를 보면 간호사는 직무요구(t=-3.90, p<.001), 직무불안정(t=-3.30, p=.002)에서 간호조무사는 직무요구(t=-2.45, p=.018), 요양보호사는 직무자율(t=-3.34, p=.001)에서 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 따라서 코로나 19 시기에 요양시설 종사자의 직종별 직무 스트레스를 효과적으로 해결하기 위해서는 직종에 따른 스트레스 완화 프로그램을 알맞게 제공해야 한다.

  • 본 연구는 4차 산업혁명 기술로 구현하는 실버케어에 대한 동향을 소개하고, 관련 문헌을 고찰하여 노인건강과 재활을 위한 디지털 기술 활용을 기술함으로서 향후 디지털 기반의 실버케어 상용화 가능성을 살펴보고 나아갈 방향을 제시하고자 한다. 노인들의 일상생활에서 겪을 수 있는 활동장애나 건강상의 문제를 관리하는데 도움이 되는 에브리데이 테크놀러지(Everyday Technology)를 활용한 건강관리와 재활을 위한 실버케어로는 첫째, 자신이 살던 집에서 독립생활이 가능하도록 보조하는 디지털기술이나 IT기술을 통해 가능한 스마트 주거 서비스인 건강지원 스마트 홈(Health smart home)을 들 수 있다. 둘째, 인공지능과 로봇을 활용한 기술 서비스를 들 수 있는데, 고도화된 지능에 기반한 로봇은 노인들의 일상생활을 보조하고, 건강상태를 체크하며, 양질의 의료 관리를 가능하게 하는 서비스를 지원하여 노인들의 건강과 재활을 위한 보조역할이 가능하다. 이들 실버케어의 상용화를 위해서는 노인의 신체적 능력과 건강상태 등 현재 상황에 맞는 정보와 서비스가 제공되어야 하며, 디지털 소외계층인 노인들이 불편함을 느끼지 않도록 실사용 노인들의 요구를 반영한 필수적인 기술 활용을 시작으로 점차 확대시켜 나가는 것이 바람직할 것이다.

  • Purpose: This study was done to determine whether muscle strength training programs have an impact on improving symptoms of urinary incontinence (UI) and physical function among elderly women with UI who reside in long-term care facilities. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted. Participants had to be over 65 years, score over 15 score on the mini-mental state examination, and be able to walk alone or with an assistant. Seventy residents were randomly allocated to either the training group (n=35) or control group (n=35). The program consisted of 50 minutes, twice a week for 8 weeks, and included Kegel's exercise, Thera-band training and indoor walking. Main outcomes were UI symptoms, peak vaginal pressure and physical functions measured with timed up and go test (TUG), one leg standing test (OLST), activities of daily living (ADL) and grip strength. Changes in outcome measurements were calculated from baseline to 4 weeks and to 8 weeks using repeated measures ANOVA. Results: There were significant differences in peak vaginal pressure (p<.001), TUG (p<.001), OLST (p=.012) and grip strength (p<.001) in the interaction between groups and time. Conclusion: Future studies are suggested to confirm the effect of muscle strength training in long-term care facilities where elderly women with UI reside.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide information searching for health promotion, nutrition improvement, and health care of the impaired elderly by ADL(Activity of Daily Living) and IADL(Instrumental Activity of Daily Living). The subjects were divided into the Assistant Needed Group and No Assistant Needed Group for living in line with the responses of ADL(10 items like dressing, washing, move etc.) and IADL(10 items like housekeeping, using transportation, shopping, Phone call etc.). Survey was made for health behavior, health risk habit, dietary management status and diet intake by 24 hr-recall and questionnaire method. 242 subjects were collected in 12 cities or Gun districts in Gyeonggi Province, S. Korea. Survey was carried out by regional home extension workers using interview method. Statistical analyses were made using SAS (Version 8.1). Chi-Square Tests and General Linear Models. The subjects of impaired ADL elderly was 26.5% and it composed 30% of the total male and 22.2% of the total female. The demographic status of the impaired ADL elderly showed no difference from that of the normal elders, elementary school educated (73.4%), with spouse (43.8%) or with adult children(37.5%), using monthly living cost of 500-1,000 thousand won(35.9%). Mean age was 74.05 years compared to 72.25 years of normal elders. However, there was no significant difference from the normal and impaired ADL group, regular exercise(60.0%), with walking (90.0%), no-smoke(54.7%) and no-drink(48.4%). Kind of disease was not different from the one in impaired and normal group, with cardiovascular disease(32.3%), with diabetes mellitus(8.1%), joint lumbago neuralgia(32.3%) and osteoporosis(9.7%). Gastrointestinal complaints of the impaired ADL group were nausea(57.8%), chronic indigestion (23.4%), constipation (14,0%) and vomiting(3.7%). Sleeping time required for the impaired was longer than that for the normal group by 10hours(4.7%) or 8-10hours(20.3%), which consisted 1.7% and 16.6% respectively. Nutrient intake of the impaired ADL group was low compared to normal range elders: Energy(1260kca1), Protein(52.75g). There was gender difference in nutrient intake; the male impaired group showed no significant difference from the normal group but it was significantly lower in female impaired group. These results suggest that low quality of life and low economic status of the impaired ADL elderly require congregate meal in village hall to cover the lack of side dishe variety. And nutrition education program including community assistance would be required for the impaired ADL elderly together with the sufficient food and exercise practice. By operating nutrition education program, the impaired ADL elderly would maintain more enhanced quality of life and ameliorate the ADL capability.

  • This study was conducted to identify the pain characteristics, family support and physical functioning and to determine predictors of the quality of life in aged women with chronic pain. Method: The questionnaires were collected through direct interview by a trained research assistant from July 2 to August 24, 2001. Subjects were 108 women clients with chronic pain over 65 years of age. Data analyzed frequency, percentage, mean, Pearson's correlation, ANOVA and stepwise multiple regression by SAS. Result: Care providers were mostly spouses and daughters in law. Care providers who took care of elderly for a few hours a day had the highest percentile. Aged women had persistently had chronic pain of moderate intensity and was moderately satisfied with pain management. The mean score of disability due to pain was 3 on a 10 point scale. The mean scores of physical function and quality of life were moderate and there were negative correlations between pain characteristics, physical functioning, and quality of life at the range from r=-.46 to r=-.83. Satisfaction with care, duration of pain, disability due to pain, and physical functioning accounted for 56% of the variance in perceived quality of life for aged women with chronic pain. Disability due to pain was the most predictable variable of quality of life and physical function was the second .Conclusion: The results suggest that care by family, education in pain control, prevention of disability, and maintenance of physical function are important to improve and maintain quality of life in aged women with chronic pain. Therefore, there is a need for program development that enhance family support and nursing intervention that focuses on active pain control.
