The purpose of this study was to identify the influence of oral health knowledge and awareness of caregivers in charge on the oral health-related quality of life of the elderly in nursing homes. Data were collected from 115 elderly without dementia and their 115 caregivers in nursing facilities in S and C cities. The data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 22.0 program. The average score for oral health knowledge and awareness of the caregivers were 11.62, 39.22 points each and the oral health-related quality of life of the elderly was 40.62 points. Oral health knowledge, awareness of caregivers and oral health-related quality of life of the elderly showed a difference according to oral health education experience of the caregivers (𝜌<.001), the nursing facility evaluation grade (𝜌=.016), and the oral health education experience (𝜌=.008), working hours of 40 hours or less per week of caregivers (𝜌=.008) each in order. The influencing factors on the oral health-related quality of life of the elderly were the oral health education experience, the working hours per week of the caregivers and the facility evaluation grade. This findings imply that developing customized program and the work environment improvement for caregivers should be considered to improve the oral health-related quality of life of the elderly in nursing homes.

전 세계적으로 고령화시대에 접어들면서 고령자에게도 시대의 변화에 따라 지식과 기술을 습득하는 '평생교육'의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 전시시설은 전시컨텐츠와 전시물의 공간적 구성에 의해 교육을 제공하는 평생학습 공간으로서의 시대적 역할이 요구됨에 따라 주 이용자층의 범위 역시 청소년, 청·장년층에서 고령자로 확대되어진다는 사실을 예견할 수 있다. 그러므로 고령자에게는 전시시설이 또 다른 학습공간이 될 수 있으며, 이러한 학습이 원활하게 이루어지기 위해서는 고령자의 신체특성을 고려한 물리적 환경지원이 필요하다. 본 연구는 고령자의 신체특성에 따른 전시시설 환경디자인 체크리스트를 개발하여 전시시설에서의 고령자의 원활한 전시관람 및 교육을 지원하는 환경계획의 틀을 마련하고자 한다. 고령자의 신체적 특성을 '감각(시력, 청력, 촉감)' 과 '운동(골격, 이동, 체력, 근력)'으로 구분하고 전시시설을 진입공간, 전시공간, 공공서비스공간, 교육활동공간, 이동공간으로 분류하여 각 공간에서의 환경디자인 체크리스트를 도출하였다. 기존 관련 법령, 매뉴얼, 선행연구를 종합하여 전시시설에서의 고령자 관람자를 위한 환경디자인 체크리스트를 새롭게 구성하였고, 후속연구를 위한 현장실측항목과 설문항목을 도출하였다.

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.

The demand of elderly care facilities due to aging population has been increased and the trend of developed countries implies the necessity of innovate approach for elderly care in Korea. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the flexible elderly housing alternative which has been introduced showing adaptability and small scale. This elderly housing alternative was designed to fulfill the condition of residential facilities for various aging phases from the independent elderly to dependent elderly. The workshop method was used for pre-evaluation of the flexible elderly housing alternative from the viewpoint of administrators, care givers and the elderly. The pre-evaluation is to estimate the facility before finalizing the design so that it facilitates more effective and suitable plan by reducing the trial and error beforehand, unlike the post-evaluation. Major responses of plans were positive and the needs for improvement about some concerns were revealed. Thus, relevant aspects of architectural drawings were amended according to workshop participants' needs and features that require to be reflected during further planning procedures were also improved. The result of this research will develop the flexible elderly housing alternative and contribute to foster environment for the elderly as well.

Introduction of new longterm care policy for elderly in Korea would change many aspects of elderly care service facilities. Especially elderly home care services like adult daycare centers will expand drastically after beginning of elderly longterm care insurance. The purpose of this research is to study and analyze multi-functional welfare facilities in Japan focusing on the types of day service in those facilities. Planning of daycare centers in multi-functional welfare facilities for the elderly can be classified to 8 types. Those types are daycare centers with senior housing, longterm care insurance facilities, senior centers, small multi-function facility, medical facilities, educational facilities, community facilities and general housing projects.

Recently housing demands are going to be diversified, and many suggestions are driven for the housing consumer's right of choice and expectation for welfare services. These require the policy change from the clear division between houses and facilities toward more market-oriented concept capable of mixed-use development of houses with facilities. The research explores the possibilities to provide various types of mixed-use developments of houses and facilities in the level of architectural design and political implication. Major case studies focus on the elderly welfare housing with serviced residence with the comparison of similar cases in Japan. The policy implications are, first, expanding the production of elderly housing with more elderly care services, second, challenging time-sharing residence composed of serviced residence and small dwelling units, third, activating the production of small scale housing development with small public facilities. The simulation shows the merits and demerits of this concepts and the efficacy of the policy implications.

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.

본 연구는 한국과 일본의 노인복지시설종사자들의 업무저해요인 및 안전문화인식을 비교하기 위하여 실시한 비교서술연구이다. 연구대상은 일본 'N'시 지역 노인복지시설 근무 종사자 460명과 한국의 K도의 'A'시, 'S'시에 소재하는 노인복지시설 근무 종사자 220명으로 총 680명 이었다. 연구기간은 2018년 4월 1일부터 8월 30일까지 이었으며, 자료는 ${\chi}^2$- test, t-test, ANOVA로 분석하였다. 연구결과 업무저해요인은 한국과 일본 두 집단 간의 유의한 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 안전문화 인식에서는 한국 노인복지시설 종사자들이 일본 노인복지시설 종사자들 보다 안전문화인식의 수준이 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 또한 양국 모두 업무저해요인이 적을수록 안전문화인식을 잘 하는 것으로 나타났으며, 업무저해요인이 안전문화인식에 영향을 미치는 변인으로 나타났다. 이에 본 연구결과는 안전문화인식을 높이고 업무저해요인을 감소시키기 위한 근무환경개선과 인적자원관리 전략수립의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이라고 기대된다.
