  • 이 논문은 노인의료복지시설의 현황과 시설체계에 관한 논문으로 부산시를 대상으로 하였다. 현황 분석과 설문조사을 통해 그에 따른 문제점을 분석하고, 해결방안으로 새로운 유형의 시설체계를 제시하였다. 현재 노인의료복지시설들은 입소대상자들을 다양하게 수용하고 있지 못하며, 각각 독립적으로 운영되고 있어서 한 시설 안에서 전문적인 치료와 요양을 동시에 할 수 없다. 이러한 문제점들을 토대로 본 논문에서는 그 해결방안으로 좀 더 넓은 범위에 걸쳐서 한 장소에서 요양과 전문적인 치료가 가능한 'one-stop service system' 체계를 제언하였다. 설문조사 결과들을 종합하여, 구상한 5가지 유형의 시설체계는 다음과 같다. 1) 무료전문요양시설 + 노인전문병원, 2) 유료전문요양시설 + 노인전문병, 3) 노인전문병원 + 실버타운 주거공간 형식의 입원실, 4) 실비전문요양시설 + 노인전문병원 + 실버타운 주거공간 형식의 입원실, 5) 노인전문병원 + 재가복지서비스. 노인관련시설은 더 이상 특수한 시설이 아니라, 누구든 언젠가는 이용 하게 될 시설이라는 점에 착안할 때, 그에 대한 대책 마련은 시급하다고 생각된다. 앞으로 노인의 질환의 종류 및 정도가 보다 중복, 중대화 될 것으로 보인다. 따라서 보다 다양하고 전문화된 시설이 요구될 것으로 예상된다.

  • 본 연구는 지역사회에서 노인들을 위한 노인보호체계 구축의 실현가능성을 탐색하고, 연계모형과 실천전략을 모색하고자 하는데 목적이 있다. 우리나라는 고령화가 진행되면서 노인들의 다양한 욕구(여가, 주거, 취업 등)가 증가됨으로 지역사회에서 노인들에게 알맞은 상담과 지원프로그램을 제공할 수 있도록 포괄적인 노인보호체계를 구축할 필요성이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 노인보호체계의 연계모형을 설정하고, 이를 실천하기 위한 2가지의 방안을 제시하였다. 첫째, 지역사회의 노인보호체계를 조직의 형성에 초점두고 그 실천과정을 조직화단계, 실천활동단계, 확대조직화단계의 3단계로 구분하여 시행하는 것이 바람직 한 것으로 제시하였다. 둘째, 노인보호체계의 지역사회조직화 모형을 적용과 노인장기요양보험의 안정적 운영을 위해서는 케어매니저, 요양보호사 등과 같은 중심적 역할을 수행할 수 있는 장기요양 전문인력의 활용이 필요하다는 것이다. 그 외에 지역사회복지협의체와 민간네트워크로 사회복지협의회가 구성, 관련법조항의 신설, 케어매니저의 교육 등의 정립이 마련되어야 한다. 따라서, 본 연구를 통해 기초적인 자료를 마련하고, 노인보호체계에 대한 다각적인 전략과 방안을 마련하고 단계적으로 발전전략을 구사하여 추진해 나가야 할 것이다.

  • 본 연구는 '지역사회'의 노인복지에 초점을 맞추어 창원시 마산회원구에 거주하는 지역 어르신들의 전반적인 생활실태 및 복지서비스에 대한 욕구를 파악함으로써 '어르신 맞춤형 복지서비스 개발'을 위한 기초자료를 수집하고, 나아가 지역사회 어르신들의 복지서비스 향상을 위한 정책적 제언을 하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해, 창원시 마산회원구의 60세 이상 어르신 600명을 대상으로 어르신들의 생활실태 및 복지욕구를 파악하고, 조사결과에 근거하여 지역사회 내 어르신들이 겪고 있는 다양한 문제들이 무엇인지 밝히고자 하였다. 분석결과, 지역사회내 홀몸어르신의 증가 및 열악한 경제상태, 만성질환, 자원봉사활동의 부재 등 사회참여의 부족, 취업연계서비스의 부족 등의 어려움을 가지고 있었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 어르신들의 복지욕구 해결을 위한 지방자치단체 차원의 정책적 과제를 제시하였다.

  • This study explores supportive and conflictual network structures of elderly single and couple households and analyzes the effects of supportive and conflictual networks on suicidal thoughts by gender and family type. The analysis considered a sample of 522 individuals over the age of 60 who did not live with their adult children. The statistical methods used to analyze data were descriptive statistics, a t-test, a chi-square test and a regression analysis using SPSS WIN 20.0. The results are as follows. First, men and elderly single households had support networks that were smaller than those of women and elderly couple households. The conflictual network of elderly couples households was larger than that of elderly single households. In addition, the larger the network, the more the conflictual was. Second, elderly single households thought about suicide more often than elderly couple households. Third, economic status, the number of adult children, the size of conflictual network and subjective health had considerable influence on suicidal thoughts of elderly single and couple households. The size of the conflictual network had a greater effect on suicidal thoughts of elderly individuals than that of the supportive network. These results have important policy implications for elderly single and couple households.
