목적 : 본 연구는 재가 뇌졸중 환자를 대상으로 가정방문 작업치료를 제공한 사례를 통해 가정방문 작업치료 서비스의 효과성을 검증하고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 서울시 소재 보건지소에 가정방문 작업치료 서비스를 신청한 뇌졸중 환자 두 명을 대상으로 가정방문 작업치료 프로그램은 대상자의 일상생활동작 기능, 작업수행 기능, 인지기능, 정서 기능을 평가하고 클라이언트 중심 접근(Client-centered approach)을 기반으로 작업치료 목표를 설정하고 중재를 계획하였다. 작업치료 프로그램은 클라이언트의 주요 문제를 바탕으로 여가 활동 탐색 및 참여를 목표로 설정하여 12회기의 프로그램으로 구성하였다. 결과 : 두 사례 모두 COPM 점수에 향상이 있었고, 사례 2에서 MBI와 K-MMSE 점수의 향상이 있었다. 또한 사례 1에서 KGDS 점수의 향상이 있었다. 결론 : 가정방문 작업치료는 뇌졸중 환자의 삶의 질 향상 및 경제적 부담 등을 고려하면서 뇌졸중 환자의 일상생활활동, 인지, 정신적 기능의 변화가 있음을 확인하였다. 가정 및 지역사회 통합에 있어 기관중심재활에서 지역사회중심재활로 지속적이고 연속된 재활 서비스가 활성화가 요구되어지며, 병원에서 퇴원하는 뇌졸중 환자들의 신체적, 인지적, 정신적 및 사회적 접근의 증진을 위한 적극적인 가정방문 작업치료서비스가 필요하다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate patient satisfaction and indirect marketing effects (recommendation, hospital re-visit intention) and additionally to calculate the expected incomes by clinical nurse specialists (CNS). Methods: Sixty-six patients who had lower varicose vein removal surgery performed at two general hospitals from August 1 to November 30, 2008, were recruited. The effects were evaluated by degree of patient satisfaction, the number of personal recommendations given, rate of hospital re-visit intention, and indirect marketing effects. Indirect marketing effects were calculated as the total cost of surgery multiplied by the score of other variables. Results: The patient satisfaction score was 0.82 for CNS and 0.43 for general nurses (GN). The number of personal recommendations given was 2.5 for CNS and 1.1 for GN. The rate of hospital re-visit intention was 0.31 for CNS and 0.21 fot GN. The ratio of expected incomes between CNS and GN is 2.07 to 1. Conclusion: We found that when a CNS serves a patient, satisfaction, number of personal recommendations, hospital re-visit intention, and indirect marketing effects were higher than those of GN. These results show that CNS have dominant roles and functions and that the effects of CNS employment can be measured using economics parameters.

퇴원계획은 환자의 거주지를 고려하여 재활중에 계획되어야한다. 본 연구는 퇴원 1개월 후 재활환자를 대상으로 퇴원장소에 따른 인구통계학적 요인과 재활기능을 비교하는 것을 목적으로 연구가 시행되었다. 대상자는 재활퇴원환자였으며 전체 300명중 146명은 자택으로 154명은 요양원등 시설로 퇴원하였다. 그 결과 수정된 Barthel Index를 이용해 점수화된 재활기능점수가 퇴원장소에 따라 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 자택으로 퇴원한 환자의 재활기능점수가 시설퇴원환자보다 높은 점수를 보였다. 그러나 재택환자의 신체기능과 일상생활 동작이 재활이 필요한 점수를 보였다. 재활환자를 위한 가정 및 시설 방문재활프로그램에 대한 차별화된 전략이 필요하다.
