The study was aimed at developing an independent hospice center model that would be best suited for Korea based on a literature review and the current status of local and international hospices. For the study, five local and six international hospice organizations were surveyed. Components of the hospice center model include philosophy, purpose, resources (workers, facilities, and equipment), allocation of resources, management, financial support and hospice team service. The following is a summary of the developed model: Philosophies for the hospice center were set as follows: based on the dignity of human life and humanism, help patients spend the rest of their days in a meaningful way and accept life positively. On the staff side, to pursue a team-oriented holistic approach to improve comfort and quality of life for terminally ill persons and their families. The hospice center should have 20 beds with single, two, and four bed rooms. The center should employ, either on a part-time or full-time basis, a center director, nurses, doctors, chaplains, social workers, pharmacists, dieticians, therapists, and volunteers. In addition, it will need an administrative staff, facility managers and nurses aides. The hospice should also be equipped with facilities for patients, their families, and team members, furnished with equipment and goods at the same level of a hospital. represented by a center director who reports to a board and an advisory committee. Also, the center director administers a steering committee and five departments, namely, Administration, Nursing Service, Social Welfare, Religious Services, and Medical Service.

Based on the results, the study has drawn up the following suggestions: 1. The proposed model for a hospice center as presented in the study needs to be tested with a pilot project. 2. Studies on criteria for legal approval and license for a hospice center need to be conducted to develop policies. 3.

목적 : 오늘날 호스피스 운동은 만성질환자가 급격히 증가함에 따라 인간의 삶을 추구하여 이루어낸 가장 완벽한 대답의 하나가 되고 있다. 우리의 1996년, 1997년의 연구에서 말기환자와 그 가족들에 대한 조사를 통해 한국 호스피스의 현재 상황을 파악하였다. 또한 호스피스케어 팀과 자원봉사자와 호스피스환자 관리를 위한 정보서비스 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 연구는 호스피스 정보서비스 시스템를 통한 간호사의 가정방문 호스피스케어와 그 문제점을 분석하였다. 방법 : 1997년 10월 1일부터 1998년 3월 31일까지 서울대학교병원 등에서 의뢰받은 26명의 말기암환자를 대상으로 하였다. 데이터 베이스와 홈페이지를 통해 호스피스케어에 필요한 정보를 갖춘 호스피스 정보서비스 시스템을 인터넷을 통해 방문간호사에게 제공하였고 방문간호사들은 이 시스템을 교육받고 환자 방문시 노트북 컴퓨터를 소지하여 호스피스 정보서비스 시스템을 통해 호스피스케어를 제공하였으며 첫 방문시와 호스피스케어동안에 환자들의 신체적 심리적 사회적 자료를 수집하였다. 결과 : 연구기간동안 26명중 16명이 사망하였으며 사망자의 평균 생존기간은 20.7일이었다. 첫 방문시 식욕부진(96.2%), 거동장애(88.5%), 통증(84.6%)이 주요한 증상이었으며 226개의 간호진단 중 영양부족과 통증이 가장 흔한 진단이었다. 가족은 환자보다 호스피스케어를 더 잘 이해하고 더 요구하였다. 대부분의 환자와 가족들은 간호사에게 영적 사회적 간호를 요구하지 않았다. 결론 : 시범사업을 통해 환자와 방문 호스피스 간호사에게 통증과 영양 관리에 대한 보다 많은 정보를 제공하여야 하여야 함을 알 수 있었다. 호스피스 정보서비스 시스템은 영적 사회적 케어에 대한 정보와 인력을 보안되어질 필요가 있다.
