  • Objectives: This study examines the association between emotional support and tooth brushing according to family cohabitation in the socio ecological model. Methods: The study used data from face-to-face interviews of 719 adults aged 30-90 years, living in Gangwon State. The dependent variables were tooth brushing after lunch and dinner (including before going to bed). The independent variables were living conditions and emotional support. Multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to confirm the association between emotional support and tooth brushing. Results: The results showed that 81.4% of people lived with their family, and 85.9% had family (friends) with whom they could share oral problems (p<0.01). Among those living with their family, 82.3% (p>0.05) brushed after lunch and 81.9% (p>0.05) brushed after dinner. Tooth brushing after lunch was 1.5 times more likely among those who shared oral problems with their family (friends); however, this was not statistically significant (95% CI: 0.92-2.29). Tooth brushing after dinner was 1.0 times more likely among those who shared oral problems with their family (friends); however, this was not statistically significant (95% CI: 0.43-2.35). Conclusions: Emotional support may help to promote tooth brushing practice among adults.

  • Purpose: This study evaluates the effectiveness of providing frailty prevention services by living support workers through a case of community resource connection centered on living support workers to revitalize frailty prevention programs for vulnerable elderly people. Methods: This is a research study using secondary data from a neighborhood health-sharing project among the integrated health promotion projects of one public health center in Daegu Metropolitan City. To assess frailty effects pre-assessments were conducted in August, and post-assessments were conducted in November. Frailty was measured using a 20-item frailty instrument used in home healthcare projects. Data were analyzed using the chi-square, independent t-test, and paired t-test. Results: Preliminary measurements showed that older elderly had higher frailty scores than younger elderly. However, among the elderly aged 75 or older the total frailty score decreased statistically significantly from 5.97 points to 5.30 points (t=3.03, p=.003). Conclusion: The older elderly showed greater effect of frailty prevention than the younger elderly.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 발달장애인 부모가 발달장애인의 의사를 잘 대리하는지를 분석하는데 있다. 분석 자료는 2014년 장애인실태조사 원자료를 활용하였다. 발달장애인 본인이 응답한 내용과 발달장애인을 대신하여 부모가 응답대리한 항목의 값의 일치도를 통해 부모 대리응답자의 의사표시의 정합성과 편향성을 분석하였다. 분석결과, 첫째, 부모 대리응답자는 발달장애인에 대해 삶의 만족도와 같은 실태에 대해 잘 응답대리하고 있으나 비용 항목은 심하게 과대 계상하는 긍정편향을, 차별 인식은 부정 편향 대리가 나타났다. 둘째, 자립과 관련되어 다수의 발달장애인 부모 대리응답자는 발달장애인 본인과 의사표시 정합성이 높았다. 다만, 약 5~10% 정도의 부모 대리응답자가 발달장애인과 의견과 달리 시설 형태의 비일반주택을 선호하여 자립정책을 왜곡할 가능성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 토대로 향후 발달장애인을 대상으로 하는 욕구 및 자립의향 연구조사시 가능한 당사자의 응답을 받을 수 있어야 함을 제안하였고, 대리응답의 정합도 연구가 다차원적으로 필요함을 논의하였다.

  • This study conducted a survey of residents living in senior housing in the outskirts of Tokyo metropolitan area where the demand for senior housing is rising. The study examined their motives for moving into senior housing, criteria for housing selection, and their degree of satisfaction with living in senior housing. The analysis results are as follows. First, the majority of respondents gave reasons for moving into senior housing such as wanting to live with more comfort and freedom and not wanting to live with their spouse any longer. Second, in choosing conditions their senior housing, the respondents put priority on the credibility of a management company, and they also valued easy accessibility to the place. In addition, they wanted the environment to be suitable for a stroll. Third, as for the degree of satisfaction with the living facilities, the respondents expressed dissatisfaction with kitchen and storage areas most frequently. This suggests that it is necessary to consider the physical characteristics of elderly people when planning senior housing by securing kitchen facilities that support independent living and provide more storage space. Fourth, in terms of the level of satisfaction with residential services, the respondents were quite content with their consulting services, response to their complaints, and the surrounding environment. However, they were less satisfied with events organized by the management company, or the in-house medical service.

  • 이 연구의 목적은 현상학적 연구를 통하여 출산 후 시설에 거주하는 양육미혼모 삶의 경험구조와 본질을 심층적으로 이해하기 위함이다. Methods: 2016년10월1일부터 2017년 2월까지 9명의 양육미혼모를 대상으로 심층면담을 통하여 자료를 수집하였으며, Colazzi의 현상학적 연구방법을 이용한 질적 연구이다. 연구결과: 출산 후 시설에 거주하는 양육미혼모 삶의 경험은 네 가지의 주제모음과 15개의 주제로 나타났다. 네 가지의 주제모음은 '출산과 양육과정', '모자보호시설의 생활', '당당한 엄마로 홀로서기', '풀리지 않은 실타래'으로 경험되었다. 결론 : 출산 후 양육미혼모들은 외롭고 고달픈 현실을 혼자 감당해야 한다는 심리적 압박감을 경험하지만 아이와 이 현실을 극복하기 위해 고군분투하였다. 양육미혼모들은 자신이 선택한 삶을 아이와 당당하고 행복하게 살기를 희망하고 있었다. 이에 미혼모가 안정적으로 살아 갈 수 있는 주거 환경적 지원과 미혼모를 바라보는 부정적인 사회적 시선과 차별을 버리고 서로의 다름을 인정하며 함께 더불어 살아가도록 사회 전반의 인식 전환이 필요하다.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 독거노인의 욕구를 지원하기 위한 ICT기반 독거노인복지서비스의 역할을 정립하는 것이다. 독거노인은 고령화가 가속됨에 따라 2010년 102만 가구로 증가 추세이며 정신적, 사회적, 경제적인 어려움 등으로 인해 사회문제로 대두되었다. 본 연구는 기존 시행된 6개 부처의 85개 노인복지서비스와 향후 제공가능 한 114개 ICT기반 복지서비스를 조사하였다. 이들 서비스를 Maslow의 욕구분류체계에 따라 유형화하고 오프라인, 온라인, 온오프라인병행 서비스로 구분하였다. 연구의 결과는 안전욕구(의료 건강), 자아실현욕구(여가 문화) 서비스에 집중되어 있고 자존욕구 서비스는 저조한 것으로 나타났다. ICT기반 노인복지서비스를 통해 환경개선, 일자리 확대, 독립적인 일상생활지원 서비스는 개선이 가능하고 심리/정서지원 서비스 등은 추가 발굴이 필요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구결과로 현재 제공되는 서비스의 편중은 완화하고 부재는 보완하는 등 ICT기반 수요자 중심 노인복지서비스를 통해 독거노인의 삶의 질을 향상시킬 수 있을 것이다.

  • Purpose: This study aims to substantiate a correlation between the period of living alone in a shabby one-room and a depression experience. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study using data from the Korea Homeless Survey carried out by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs in 2016. In the study, the data included 485 survey participants who resided in a single room. The period of single-room occupancy being divided into three groups: less than 1 year, 1 to 4 years, and more than 5 years was considered a primary independent variable. The outcome variable which represented a depression experience was measured by CESD-11(The Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale). We carried out a Chi-square test and multiple logistic regression to evaluate the association. Results: The rate of depression experienced in this population was 77.5%. Almost 83.9% of the participants were reported as being unable to receive the mental health counselling in the last 12 months. After controlling for covariates, subjects who were living in a single room occupancy for 1-5 years(OR=3.89; 95% CI=1.43-10.56) and more than 5 years(OR=2.71; 95% CI= 1.05-6.95) were found to be more likely to experience depression. Conclusions: The results showed that living alone in a shabby one-room had a high correlation with experiencing depression. We proposed that there is a need to develop a new strategy for mental health promotion program for the poor, vulnerable and deprived population.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to identify the activities of daily living of the elderly in day and night care facilities and the nursing needs of the elderly and caregivers. Methods: The subjects of this study were 90 elderly people and their caregivers, who lived in B and G cities used day and night care facilities. The collected data were analyzed using frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, independent t-test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient using the SPSS 25.0 program. Results: Caregivers have a higher awareness of nursing needs than the elderly. Both the elderly and their caregivers had the highest informational nursing requirements. There was a positive correlation between the activities of daily living of the elderly and physical nursing needs of caregivers, and there was also a positive correlation among the nursing needs in each area. Conclusion: These results suggest that day and night care facilities should provide customized nursing services by assessing the activities of daily living of the elderly and the nursing needs of the elderly and caregivers by area before establishing a nursing plan. This will enable them to provide effective nursing services for elderly people. In addition, we propose research to develop a nursing information program for the elderly and caregivers.
