Objectives : This research analyzed the general characteristics of care workers and verified the correlation among self-perceived health, job stress and customer orientation. Methods : We conducted a survey from May 1st, to May 31st, 2015 of 260 care workers who are affiliated with elderly care facilities or home care facilities in Busan, Korea. Results : The more the workers were stressed about their organizational culture, the more they recognized psychological difficulties. However, there was no correlation between organizational culture and their tendency to be oriented toward customers. It was verified that the recognized psychological health has a positive regulation effect between customer orientation and job stress such as job skill requirement(p<0.01), job autonomy(p<0.01), and organizational culture(p<0.01). Conclusions : Because both suppliers and recipients of care services are aging, it is necessary for elderly care facilities to make a greater effort to minimize the physical and psychological losses of recipients.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors influencing health workers' infection management behavior in long-term care facilities. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional survey was conducted with 180 health workers who are employed in long-term care facilities. The data were collected from April, 25 until July, in 2016. Results: Infection management behavior positively correlated with the perceived importance of infection management (r=.77, p<.001), but role conflict negatively correlated with infection management behavior (r=.28, p<.001). The hierarchical regression model with general characteristics (first step) and perceived importance of infection management, work environment, and role conflict (second step) against infection management behavior was statistically significant (F=31.93, p<.001). This model could explain 62.8% of infection management behavior ($R^2=.62$, ${\Delta}R^2=.39$). Particularly, perceived importance of infection management was identified as factors influencing infection management behavior(${\beta}=.70$, p<.001). Conclusion: The findings of this study imply that systemic education about infection control and monitoring should be considered, so as to encourage proper infection management behaviors among health workers in long-term care facilities.

이 연구는 노인장기요양보험제도 실시 3년이 경과한 지금, 노인장기요양서비스의 핵심 인력인 요양보호사가 이 제도의 성패여부를 좌우하고 있다는 사실에 주목하고, 이들에게서 나타나는 주요 특성과 직무만족에 영향을 미치는 요인이 무엇인지를 찾아내고자 하였다. 분석 자료는 전라남도 노인장기요양기관 61곳에 종사하고 있는 요양보호사 291명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 여성이 93.5%를 차지하였으며, 40-50세 이상의 연령이 78%였고, 고졸이하의 학력이 68.7%로 나타났다. 둘째, 고용형태는 계약직, 임시직이 63.2%를 차지하였으며, 지난 1년간 받은 교육 총 횟수는 53.3%가 5회 미만 이였고, 연봉은 79.7%가 2,000만원 미만으로 나타났다. 셋째, 전체 직무만족도는 5점 리커트 척도의 3.19점으로 나타났고, 시설급여기관에 종사한 요양보호사보다는 재가급여기관에 종사한 요양보호사가, 비정규직보다는 정규직이, 연간교육 횟수와 연봉이 많은 요양보호사일수록 직무만족도는 유의하게 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 요양보호사의 직무만족에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대한 논의와 직무만족향상방안에 대한 제언을 하였다.

본 연구의 목적은 서비스 공급자로서 재가요양서비스를 제공하고 있는 요양보호사의 서비스에 대한 평가를 통해 서비스 품질 개선 방안을 찾는 것이다. 이를 위해 부산에서 활동 중인 요양보호사 223명을 대상으로 직무 환경, 서비스 기관에 대한 평가, 재교육 등에 대한 내용을 중심으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 조사결과 요양보호사는 학력은 낮지 않으나 연령대가 높고 불안정한 고용형태를 가진 이가 대다수였다. 더 나은 요양서비스를 위해 희망하는 슈퍼비전 내용은 서비스 이용자와의 관계성, 이용자 욕구 변화에 따른 대처 등이었다. 우선적으로 필요한 재교육 내용은 노년기 및 노인 가족에 대한 이해, 노인성 질환에 대한 보건 의료적 지식, 이용자 및 가족과의 상담기법 등으로 나타났다. 그리고 건강보험공단 등에 바라는 것은 이용자와 보호자의 인식 개선, 급여 인상, 그리고 전문성 강화 위한 교육 기회 확대 등이었다. 이상의 연구결과를 통해 요양보호서비스 향상을 위한 방안으로 서비스 공급구조적 측면에서의 개선과 요양보호사와 업무에 대한 인식개선, 적절한 슈퍼비전과 재교육 기회 제공 등을 제안하였다.
