Through an examination of future societal development, it was found that the demographic structure is gradually aging, thus placing higher demands on elderly welfare centers. This study conducted surveys on three elderly day care centers in the entire region, aiming to enhance the pivotal role of elderly day care centers in the welfare facilities for the elderly. The current usage status, interior architectu/ral evaluations, and questionnaire surveys of these centers were analysed. The results of investigation into the architectural environment of the elderly day care centers showed that in terms of physical environment, smaller-scale centers did not lag behind larger ones in internal facilities, but larger-scale centers excelled in spatial utilization. Furthermore, the results of questionnaire survey results revealed correlations between family relationships, health status, level of assistance required, and satisfaction with facility usage, while no correlation was found between usage time, health status, and satisfaction with facility usage. This study conducted basic investigations such as architectural and physical surveys, and questionnaire surveys on elderly day care centers. Based on the survey results, future design practices should continuously explore and innovate to meet the needs of an aging society, further improve the community care system, provide more comprehensive and meticulous services for the elderly, and lay the foundation for enhancing the quality of life for the elderly and providing comfortable services.

노인장기요양보험제도 도입으로 노인요양시설과 요양시설 이용자가 급증하고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 노인 요양시설내 학대 발생 현황과 그로 인해 이용노인의 삶에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대한 관심과 연구는 부족한 실정이었다. 이에 본 연구는 2개 지역에 소재한 44개 요양시설 이용노인 278명을 대상으로 자료를 수집하여 분석하였다. 학대경험과 서비스 품질 인식, 서비스 만족도, 삶의 만족도간의 관계를 분석하기 위해 SPSS 20프로그램과 AMOS 18프로그램을 이용해 분석하였다. 분석결과 요양시설 이용 노인의 학대 피해 경험을 확인할 수 있었는데 특히 성학대 피해 경험이 가장 많이 보고되었다. 학대 피해 경험은 이용노인의 서비스품질에 대한 인식, 서비스 만족도, 삶의 만족도에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 학대를 경험한 노인은 기관의 서비스 품질과 서비스 만족도에 대해 낮게 평가하였고, 삶의 만족도 또한 낮게 나타났다. 학대 경험은 이용 노인의 삶의 만족도에 직접적 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 서비스 만족도를 매개로 간접적으로도 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 노인 요양시설내 노인 학대 예방을 위한 방안을 제시하였다.

평균수명의 증가 및 출산율의 저하와 함께 수반되는 급격한 인구고령화는 단기간에 우리나라의 경제 사회 문화 전 분야에 걸쳐 중대한 변화를 야기하고 있다. 단순히 노인의 비율이 늘어나는 것뿐만 아니라 평균수명이 계속해서 증가하여 많은 국민들이 장기간의 노후생활을 영위해야 하는 상황이다. 이와 같은 배경에서 노인들이 인간으로서의 존엄과 가치를 유지하면서 품위 있게 인생을 마무리할 수 있도록 노인복지 관련법제의 역할과 기능이 특별히 강조될 수밖에 없으며, 사회보험 및 공공부조와 기능적 연계성을 토대로 사회복지서비스를 목적으로 하는 노인복지법의 역할도 점차 중요해지고 있다. 노인복지법은 노인을 위한 사회복지서비스의 내용을 제시하고 있는데, 그중에서도 소득보장, 보건의료서비스, 요양 및 주거복지를 중심으로 하는 복지조치 그리고 일자리 등 사회참여지원 등을 핵심요소로 하며, 그와 같은 복지서비스의 유기적 결합을 통하여 노인이 살아가는데 적합한 생활조건을 실현할 수 있게 된다. 이를 위하여 노인복지법은 기초노령연금법과 노인장기요양보험법 등 관련법제와 밀접한 규범적 네트워크를 형성하면서 효율적인 노인복지시스템을 구축하게 된다. 그러나 우리 현행 노인복지법 및 관련법제는 21세기의 고령사회, 장수사회를 대비하는데 여전히 미흡하다고 하지 않을 수 없다. 노후소득보장과 다양하고 수준 높은 노인의 사회참여의 결합, 보건 의료와 요양의 효율적 연계 및 국가 또는 지방자치단체의 비용부담수준, 복지조치의 효과성 제고를 통한 품위 있고 존중받는 노인복지의 실현을 위해 더 많은 노인들을 포괄할 수 있는 다양하고 구체적인 개선방안이 마련되어야 할 것이다.

Germany became a super-aged society which has the number of people aged 65 or older reached 19 percent of population in 1997. Similarly, there is a tendency in Korea to increase the number of older people coupled with an increase in the number of households of the senior citizen who lives alone due to a rapid change of family unit. Research on geriatric in Germany is being carried out in many different ways, like medical, welfare, and social aspects because of the fact that Germany is in the middle of a super-aged society. Therefore, analysis and evaluation of elderly care facilities in Germany will be used as a fundamental resource for overall planning of elderly care and welfare facilities which are expected to grow demand dramatically.

Objectives: This study was conducted to prepare basic data to propose the necessity and utilization of oral welfare products in the welfare services of the long-term care insurance system, focusing on facility workers working in elderly facilities. Methods: The analysis was conducted on 144 workers working at some local elderly facilities. The questionnaire was constructed by classifying the use of oral welfare tools into 6 questions and the necessity and demand for oral welfare devices into 13 questions. Frequency analysis and technical analysis were performed for data analysis, and one-way ANOVA was performed for differences in the necessity and demand for oral welfare equipment. The statistical significance level was p<0.05. Results: As a result of examining the awareness of the necessity and demand for oral welfare equipment among workers in elderly facilities, the awareness of the necessity of including oral welfare equipment in the items of welfare equipment in the current long-term care insurance system was high at 4.15 points. As a result of analyzing the correlation between awareness of care products and the need and demand for oral welfare equipment, it was confirmed that there was a statistically significant positive correlation (p<0.01). Conclusions: In the long-term care insurance system for the elderly, oral welfare products need to be considered for welfare equipment services. The provision of oral welfare products within the long-term care insurance system for the elderly can provide opportunities and services to select various self-care tools. In addition, it is expected that it will be possible to promote changes in the long-term care insurance system for the elderly and to improve the system in a variety of positive ways.

The nation is turning into aging society, and safety accidents among elderly people are on the rise. When death roll caused by safety accidents was investigated, senior citizens who died from safety accidents outnumbered the other age groups who died for the same reason. The most common cause of death was traffic accidents, followed by suicide and a hurt from a fall, and Korea rated first among OECD member nations in death roll by traffic accidents. Aging brings a lot of physical changes to elderly people, and they are often likely to be involved in accidents such as a hurt from a fall due to degenerated sensory organs like hearing and eyesight and deteriorated motor skills. Unsafe social facilities also have them face a lot of accidents, including fracture and death, and such accidents take place even at home that is usually considered safe, or are triggered by things of daily use. As a result of comparing every age group's death roll by safety accidents, the number of senior citizens who died from safety accidents was far higher than that of the other age groups who died for the same reason in every accident field. In aging society, a sharp increase in the elderly population and ensuing safety accidents are expected to pose a serious threat to national economy, and diverse efforts should be put into tacking this problem. For instance, safety education should be provided to people in general including senior citizens on a regular basis, and more safety facilities should be prepared. Besides, safety equipment should be developed.
