본 연구는 노인 장기요양 서비스를 제공하는 기관에서 종사하는 사회복지사들이 임종 케어 과정에서 겪는 심리·사회적 경험 및 역할에 대해 알아보았다. 심층 면접을 통한 자료 분석 결과 사회복지사들은 임종 케어 과정에서 빈번한 죽음 경험으로 인해 기가 빠지고 소진됨을 경험하였으며 돌아가신 노인분들에게 더 잘해드리지 못한 것에 대해 아쉬움과 정든 분에 대한 그리움을 나타냈다. 그리고 갑작스러운 죽음이 발생하면 가족들의 비난과 불평을 겪기도 하였다. 임종 케어시 사회복지사들의 주된 역할로 죽음 징후가 나타나면 가족들에게 수시로 연락하여 소통하였고 임종 후 주 부양자 가족들을 위로하고 지지하였다. 응급상황 대처를 위한 사전준비와 응급조치에 대한 법적 안전망, 사회복지사들의 소진을 막기 위한 재충전 프로그램 및 지지 모임, 임종 케어를 위한 표준화된 매뉴얼과 교육의 필요성이 제시되었다. 또한 노인분의 존엄한 죽음을 위하여 죽음 준비교육, 호스피스 케어, 사전 의료의향서 등의 필요성도 강조되었다.

목적: 본 연구는 장기요양 입소시설의 사회복지사를 대상으로 임종의료결정 권리, 사회복지사의 역할 이해도를 분석하고, 이들의 상관관계를 분석하고자 한다. 방법: 본 연구는 설문지를 사용하여 수집된 자료 334부 중 분석에 포함하기 어려운 37부를 제외한 297부를 SPSS 20.0을 이용하여 T-test, 분산분석, 상관관계분석 등을 실시하였다. 결과: 사회복지사가 이해하는 노인환자와 가족의 임종의료결정 권리 이해도는 5점 만점에 $3.46{\pm}0.69$, 사회복지사 역할 이해도는 $3.48{\pm}0.84$이다. 사회복지사의 사전의료의향서 및 연명치료 결정 도움 경험, 임종의료결정 도움 업무, 근무 경력, 침상 수 등에 따라 임종의료 결정 권리 및 사회복지사 역할 이해도에 의미 있는 수준에서 집단 간 차이를 보였다. 임종의료결정 권리와 사회복지사 역할 이해도와의 상관관계는 의미 있는 수준에서 긍정적인 상관관계를 보였다(Pearson r=0.329, P<0.001). 결론: 장기요양 입소시설에서 노인환자와 가족에게 사전의료의향서 및 연명치료 결정 도움을 제공하는 사회복지사 역할의 중요성을 인식하고, 노인환자와 가족의 임종의료결정 권리를 보호하기 위하여 임종의료결정에서의 사회복지사 역할 수행을 위한 교육이나 훈련 프로그램의 개발이 필요하다.

일개요양병원에 입원한 호스피스 환자에게 제공되고 있는 직종별 호스피스 완화의료 서비스 행위와 빈도를 파악하여 향후 요양병원 호스피스 완화의료 수가 개발의 기초자료를 마련하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구는 후향적 연구로 요양병원에 사망한 12명의 말기암환자에 대한 의무기록을 자료 로 임종 전 6개월 동안 1개월 간격으로 호스피스 완화의료 서비스 행위를 조사하였다. 직종별 호스피스 완화의료 서비스 행위를 살펴보면 의사는 수혈, 보호자 면담, 투약설명 등, 간호인력은 석션, 산소공급, 환자상태관찰, 투약 간호, 위관영양 등을, 그 외 사회복지사는 개별프로그램적용, 물리치료사는 전기신경자극치료, 영양사는 영양평가와 영양관리, 요양보호사는 식사 및 영양보조, 기저귀교체 등을 수행하는 것으로 나타났다. 조사대상 요양병원을 분석한 결과 요양병원의 호스피스 완화의료 서비스는 미흡한 실정으로 급성기 중환자에게 제공되는 공격적이며 적극적인 서비스가 중심이 되고 있어 편안하고 존엄한 임종 돌봄이 제공되지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 요양병원에서 제공되는 호스피스 완화의료 서비스 질을 향상시켜 노인들이 삶의 마지막 순간을 존엄하고 평화롭게 맞이할 수 있도록 호스피스 완화의료 수가적용 등의 제도적 방안을 마련할 필요가 있다.

Objective: This study investigates the impact of multimorbidity on work through a literature review of longitudinal studies. Methods: A systematic review was carried out in the databases Lilacs, SciELO, PAHO, PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane. There were no restrictions regarding the year of publication or language to maximize the identification of relevant literature. The quality of studies was assessed by the protocol STrengthening the Reporting of OBservational studies in Epidemiology (STROBE). Results: An initial database search identified 7522 registries, and at the end of the analysis, 7 manuscripts were included in the review. Several studies have demonstrated direct and indirect impacts of multimorbidity on the health of workers. For this, the number of missed days due to health-related issues was evaluated, as well as the reduction in work productivity of the unhealthy worker, vulnerability of the worker with multimorbidity regarding higher indices of dismissal and recruitment difficulties, and incidence of early retirement and/or receipt of benefits due to disabilities. Conclusions: Multimorbidity has a negative impact on work, with damages to quality of life and work productivity, worsening the absenteeism/presenteeism indices, enhancing the chances of temporary or permanent leaves, and lowering employability and admission of individuals with multimorbidity.

목적: 말기 암환자 돌봄의 질을 향상시키기 위해서는 호스피스 완화의료 전문인력을 위한 적절한 교육이 필수적인 요소이다. 보건복지가족부 내 말기 암환자 TF 위원회에서는 2005년에 호스피스 완화의료 전문인력에게 필요한 기본조건으로서 60시간 이상의 호스피스 완화의료 교육을 받도록 제시한 바 있다. 이에 국내 호스피스 완화의료 전문인력의 교육현황을 알아보고, 교육실태에 있어서 지역적인 변이가 있는지를 밝히고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방법: 2008년 보건복지가족부가 실시한 말기 암환자 전문기관 활성화 지원사업에 지원한 호스피스기관 중 46개 기관의 전문인력 673명의 교육현황 자료를 분석하였다. 결과: 총 673명 중에서 60시간 이상의 호스피스 완화 의료 교육을 이수한 경우는 279명(41.5%)이었다. 간호사 378명 중 60시간 이상 교육을 이수한 경우는 177명(46.8%)이었으며, 의사는 106명 중 38명(35.8%), 사회복지사는 75명중 24명(32.0%), 성직자는 114명중 40명(35.1%)이었다. 60시간 이상의 교육을 이수한 경우는 경상도 지역이 다른 지역에 비하여 상대적으로 적었다. 또한 중소도시에 소재한 기관의 전문인력은 대도시에 소재한 기관의 전문인력보다 60시간 이상 교육을 이수한 비율이 낮았다. 기관 종류에 따라서는 병원에 근무하는 호스피스 완화의료 전문인력이 60시간 이상의 교육을 이수한 경우가 상대적으로 적었다. 결론: 본 연구의 결과 60시간 이상 호스피스 완화의료 교육을 이수한 전문인력은 전체의 41.5%였으며, 지역적으로 변이가 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 앞으로 호스피스 완화의료 전문인력을 위한 교육을 활성화하고 지역적인 불균형을 해결하기 위한 제도적 대안이 요구된다. Train-the-trainer 모델을 기반으로 호스피스 완화의료 전문인력을 위하여 개발한 60시간의 교육 프로그램을 운영하는 것이 바람직한 대안이 될 수 있을 것이라고 생각한다.

The results of the study were as follows; 1.The medical profession showed high level of knowledge of the definition and philosophy of hospice. However, the physician group of the examinees showed insufficient knowledge of the fact that hospice care includes bereavement care, while the nurse group's response to the same question showed a significant difference(x2=10.752, p=.001). 2.For whom the hospice home care is provided, 95.6% of the respondents showed very high level of knowledge as answering that the incurable terminal illness patients and their families are the beneficiaries of hospice care. The respondents counted nurses, volunteers, pastors, physicians and social workers, consecutively, as hospice care providers. More nurse were positive toward pastors than physicians in regarding as a hospice care provider by a significant difference(x2=11.634, p=.001). 3.For when to referral hospice home care to the patients, only 34.2% answered that patients with less than 6 months of survival time are advised to receive hospice care, reflecting very low level of knowledge. 23.0% of the physicians and 48.0% of the nurses answered that hospice care should be provided when death is imminent, making a significant difference between the two groups(x2=6.413, p=.000). 4.To promote hospice activities, 87.2% pointed out that it is crucial to make general people, including those engaging in the medical field, more aware of hospice. 79.7% answered that a national hospice management should be developed, marking a significant difference between the physician group and nurse group(x2=10.485, p=.001). 5.Advantages of hospice home care are 87.2% responded that patients can have better rest at home receiving hospice home care. Economical merit was brought forward as one of the advantages also, where there was a significant difference between the physicians group and nurse group(x2=7.009, p=.008). 6.The medical professions' attitude to hospice home care are 92.8% of the physicians answered that they would advise incurable terminally ill patients to be discharged from hospital, with 44.3% of them advising the patients to receive hospice home care after leaving the hospital. From the nurses' point of view, 20.9% of the terminally ill patients are being referred to hospice home care after discharge, which makes a significant difference from the physicians' response(x2=19.121, p=.001). 7. 30.6% of physicians have referred terminally ill patients to hospice home care, 75.9% of whom were satisfied with their decision. Those physicians who have never referred their patients to hospice home care either did not know how to do it(66.7%) or were afraid of losing trust by giving the patients an impression of giving up(27.3%). 94.9% of the physicians responded that they would refer their last stage patients to a doctor who is involving palliative care. 8.Only 36.2% of nurses have suggested to physicians that refer the terminally ill patients discharged from the hospital to hospice home care. Once suggested, 95.8% of the physicians have accepted the suggestion. Nurses were reluctant to suggest hospice home care to the physicians, as 48.8% of the nurses said they did not want to. From the result of this study the following conclusion can be drawn, the medical profession's awareness of general hospice care has been increased greatly compared to the results of the previously performed studies. However, this study result also shows that their knowledge of hospice home care is not good enough yet. There is a need for high recommended that medical education institute and develop regular courses on various types of hospice care. Medical field training courses for physicians and nurses will be very helpful as well. It is also important to train hospice experts such as palliative physicians and develop a national hospice management urgently in order to improve the hospice care in Korea.
