목적 : 본 연구는 일부 지역 주민들의 호스피스에 대한 인지와 태도 및 호스피스 간호 요구를 조사하고, 호스피스에 대한 인지와 태도에 따른 호스피스 간호요구를 파악하기 위함이다. 방법 : 1998년 9월부터 10월까지 서초구에 거주하는 $20{\sim}60$세의 성인 남녀 924명을 대상으로 하였으며, 자료는 자기보고식 설문지를 통하여 수집되었고, t-test와 ANOVA를 사용하여 분석하였고 Scheffe test로 다중비교를 하였다. 결과 : 1) 연구대상자의 평균연령은 38세였고, 대부분이 고학력자였다. 2) 호스피스에 대한 인지에서, 호스피스에 대해 들어 본 경험이 있다고 한 경우가 54.1%(501명)였으며, 그 중에서 64%가 여성이었고, 고졸 이상 학력자가 90.7%이었다. 죽음을 미리 준비해야 한다고 생각하는가에 대하여는 약 74%가 긍정적 대답을 하였다. 암과 같은 불치병에 걸린다면 의료인이 그 사실을 말해주기를 원하는가에 대해서는 약 83%가 원한다고 답하였다. 불치병에 걸린 사람에 대한 간호에 대해서는 63.1%가 고통을 최소로 줄이고 편안한 죽음을 맞이할 수 있도록 신체적, 정신적, 영적인 간호를 제공해야한다고 응답하였다. 3) 호스피스에 대한 태도에서, 필요시 호스피스 간호를 받겠다고 한 경우가 약 73.8% 이었고, 말기환자를 돌보는 방법으로는 기정에서 호스피스 팀의 방문을 받으며 돌보는 것이 33.5%로 가장 높았다. 4) 호스피스 간호요구를 영역별로 보면, 신체적 요구(M=4.37)가 가장 높았고 사회적 요구(M=3.96), 정서적 요구(M=3.87), 영적 요구(M=3.79)순이었으며, 전체 요구도는 평균 약 4.00점으로 호스피스에 대한 높은 요구를 보였다. 인구학적 특성별로는, 50세 이상의 연령층과 기혼자들에서 요구도가 가장 높았고, 남성보다 여성이 높았으며, 종교별로는 가톨릭의 경우 요구도가 가장 높았다. 호스피스 간호 요구도는 호스피스에 대해 들어본 경험, 죽음에 대한 준비, 불치병에 대한 통고 및 호스피스의 필요성 인식에 따라 유의한 차이를 보였다. 즉, 호스피스에 대해 들어본 군, 죽음을 미리 준비해야 된다고 전적으로 긍정한 군, 불치병에 대한 통고를 원하는 군, 그리고 필요시에 호스피스 간호를 받겠다는 군에서 호스피스 간호 요구도가 유의하게 높았다. 결론 : 본 연구의 결과는 호스피스에 대한 인지정도를 높일 수 있는 홍보와 교육이 필요함을 시사하며, 지역사회 주민들의 요구를 충족시켜 삶의 질을 향상시키기 위한 가정 호스피스를 발전시키고 나아가서는 전반적인 호스피스 발전을 위한 유용한 자료가 될 것으로 기대된다.

Background : It is very common in Korea to take care of non-acute patients in an acute setting, due to the lack of long-term facilities. Long term hospitalization increase medical expenses and decreases the bed utilization, which can affect the urgent and emergent admissions, and eventually jeopardize the hospital financially. In this study, strategies for effective transfers to the lower levels of care, and to decrease the length of stay were presented by surveying and analyzing the patient's knowledge of the transfer needs, and the willingness to transfer those whose hospital length of stay was more than 30days. Method : The survey is subject to a group of 251 patients who have been hospitalized over 30 days in a general hospital in Seoul. Excluding those that were in the Intensive Care Unit and psychiatric ward, 214 in-patients were used as participants. They were surveyed from April 9, 2002 to April 17, 2002. One hundred and thirty seven out of 214 were responded which made the response rate 64%. Data were analyzed by SAS and SPSS. Result : Multi-variable Logistic Regression Analysis showed a significant effect in medical expenses, knowledge of referral system and the information of the receiving hospital. The financial burden in medical expenses made the patient 10.7 times more willing to be transferred, knowledge of the referral system made them 5 times more willing to be transferred, and the information of receiving hospital makes 6.5 times more willing to be transferred. Reasons for willing to be transferred to a lower level of care were the phase of physical therapy, the distance from home, the attending physician's advice and being unable to be treated as an out patient. Reasons for refusing to be transferred were the following. The attending physician's competency, not being ready to be discharged, not trusting the receiving hospital's competency due to the lack of information, or never hearing about the referring system by the attending physician. Conclusion : Based on this, strategies for the effective transfer to the lower levels of care were suggested. It is desirable for the attending physician to be actively involved by making an effort to explain the transfer need, and referring to the Healthcare Coordinating Center, which can help the patient make the right decision. Nationwide networking for the referral system is the another key factor that may need to be suggested as an alternative to decrease the medical expenses. Collaborating with the Home Health Agency for the early discharge planning and the Social Service Department for financial aid are also needed. It is recommended that the hospital should expedite the transfer process by prioritizing the cost and the information as medical expenses, knowledge of referring system and the information of the receiving hospital, are the most important factors to the willingness to transfer to a lower level of care.

Methods: The CMP-VNC was developed using the combined prototyping approach and system developing life cycle method following four stages: need analysis with comprehensive literature reviews and focus group interviews, design and development of program algorithm, evaluation of the developed program validity using experts and users group, and application and effects analysis. The non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used to analyze the effects of the program. The program demonstration was conducted for four weeks with 60 visiting nurses in 35 visiting centers. Results: The web-based program was developed. It has five interfaces with basic and special functions using TD-ABC, namely, input, visiting nursing activity, visiting nursing activity cost, cost efficiency, and cost calculation report. The experimental group showed significantly higher cost perception and cost confidence than control group. Conclusion: We found that the CMP-VNC can be an effective tool to increase visiting nurses' competency of costing and enhance efficiencies of visiting nursing centers.
