This study compares the degree of satisfaction and the causes of selecting facilities for stroke patients in the senior specialized hospitals and other senior care facilities. The research results are followed. First, The patients who held the level of senior long-term care used senior specialized hospitals, while the patients who had the level of 2 or 3 degree used senior care facilities. The patients helped by cooperative care service used senior care facilities, and the patients helped by private service or family service used senior specialized hospitals. Second, The patients in senior specialized hospitals had affirmative attitude for their service system, while the patients in senior care facilities preferred their various service systems. In the satisfaction of the facilities, the patients in senior care facilities felt more satisfaction to staff, environment, service, and other factors than the patients in hospitals did. Third, in the result of logistic analysis, the patients had an affirmative attitude in case that they had spouse, experience of senior specialized hospitals or senior care facilities, without senior long-term care insurance. They also valued the service standard and the staff quality. As this study points out, the overall preference is higher in the senior care facilities. So, the stroke patients recognized the new role between the hospitals and the facilities after the establishment of long-term senior medicare system. This research had some limitation for the research areas and numbers. So the data analysis for the types of facility and the responses may not be generalized. However, the standard of choosing facility and satisfaction will be a guideline for establishing a new future role between hospitals and facilities. This result will be used as a basic data for the renovation of long-term senior medicare insurance.

Purpose: This research is to understand the effects of senior simulation on employees of elderly care facilities and utilize it in their job training. Methods: This research is a nonequivalence control group pre-to-post quasiexperiment research. 18 employees who have experienced senior simulation are set as test group and 18 other employees who have not experienced senior simulation are set as control group. Results: The hypothesis that 'the test group which has experienced senior simulation will show a positive change in their attitude on elderly care, compared to the control group' and 'the test group which has experienced senior simulation will show a positive change in understanding of elders, compared to the control group' was supported. The hypothesis that 'the test group which has experienced senior simulation will show a positive change in job satisfaction and performance of duties, compared to the control group' was dismissed. Conclusion: The senior simulation seems to contribute to elderly care facilities employees' change in their viewpoints of elders and broaden their understanding of them.

Isothermal (vapor + liquid) equilibrium data measurements were undertaken for the binary mixtures of (propylene oxide + 1-pentanol) system at three different temperatures (303.15, 318.15, and 333.15) K. The Peng-Robinson-Stryjek-Vera equation of state (PRSV EOS) was used to correlate the experimental data. The van der Waals one-fluid mixing rule was used for the vapor phase and the Wong-Sandler mixing rule, which incorporates the non-random two liquid (NRTL) model, the universal quasi-chemical (UNIQUAC) model and the Wilson model, was used for the liquid phase. The experimental data were in good agreement with the correlation results.

2025년에 초고령사회에 진입할 것으로 예측되고 있는 한국의 고령화 추세는 거스를 수 없는 현실이다. 더불어 시니어 돌봄을 지역사회에서 책임지는 커뮤니티케어에 대한 정책적, 사회적 요구가 확대됨에 따라 시니어 요양산업의 발전이 예상된다. 따라서 시니어 요양산업에 대한 혁신적 비즈니스모델을 제시한 'Driving Miss Daisy^®'의 사례와 성공 요인을 살펴봄으로써, 한국 시니어 요양산업의 발전을 위한 시사점 및 한국 시장에의 적용 방안을 도출해보고자 하였다. 한국 시니어 요양산업의 발전을 위해서는 시니어에 대한 이해와 커뮤니티케어를 위한 인프라 구축, 그리고 전문 인력의 처우개선 등이 선행되어야 한다. 'Driving Miss Daisy^®'의 한국 시장 적용 방안으로는 규제완화, 액티브시니어를 대상으로 하는 차별화된 서비스의 개발, 지역사회 내 기관과의 연계 시스템 구축, 대·중소기업 및 창업자 협력 모델구축 등의 필요성이 제시되었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the degree of intensive and critical care nursing competence in senior nursing students. Methods: The research method for this study comprised a descriptive survey study with a convenience sample of 113 senior nursing students from one university. The instrument entitled ICCN-CS-1, which measures intensive and critical care nursing competence, was translated by the authors following WHO guidelines for translation process. The data were collected using ICCN-CS-1. Results: The mean score of intensive and critical care nursing was above the intermediate level. The competence indices of knowledge, skill and attitude/value were also above the intermediate level, which suggests that their competence is good. For two intensive and critical care nursing domains, the nursing students' mean score of clinical competence is higher than that of professional competence. The competence of intensive and critical care is also influenced by nursing students' satisfaction in their major and clinical practice as well as their confidence in clinical practice. Conclusion: The senior nursing students' competence of intensive and critical care nursing is above the intermediate level. A consideration of the influencing factors of satisfaction of nursing major/ICU practice and confidence of ICU practice is needed in intensive and critical care nursing education.

본 연구는 65세 이상 노인 중 당뇨병 진단을 받은 자를 대상으로 당뇨병과 구강건강과의 관련성 및 구강관리 실태를 분석하여 당뇨 환자를 위한 구강제품개발에 필요한 기초자료를 마련하고자 하였다. D시의 노인복지관을 방문한 당뇨병 진단을 받은 65세 이상 노인 8명을 연구대상자로 하여 4명을 한 그룹으로 하고 그룹 당 약 40분의 면담을 진행하였다. 연구결과 '당뇨와 구강건강', '구강 내 불편감', '구강관리방법', '치과방문', '구강관리를 위한 요구'의 5개의 핵심 주제가 도출되었다. 연구대상자의 대부분이 당뇨와 구강건강의 관련성에 대하여는 처음 들어본다고 대답하였고, 구강건강관리는 하루 3~4회 치약을 사용하여 잇솔질을 하고, 치과방문은 구강에 문제가 생겼을 때만 방문한다고 대답하였다. 구강관리에 필요하다고 생각하는 부분은 당뇨환자 맞춤 구강관리교육과 치약 등 다양한 관리제품들이 개발되었으면 좋을 것 같다고 대답하였다. 본 연구결과를 볼 때 향후 노인 당뇨 환자의 맞춤형 구강건강관리 프로그램개발 및 구강제품개발이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
