  • 2022년 중대재해 처벌 등에 관한 법률이 시행되며 국내 건설현장에 대한 안전과 보건에 대한 건설회사의 역할이 강화되고 최고 경영자에 대한 책임이 막중해졌다. 하지만, '22년 광주 화정동 주상복합 아파트 붕괴사고와 같은 중대재해는 여전히 발생하고 있다. 인구감소, 젊은 계층의 건설업 진입기피등으로 건설현장은 고령 근로자와 외국인 근로자의 비율이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 연구에서 다루지 않았던 건설현장의 취약계층인 외국인 근로자, 고령 근로자, 건강취약 근로자 등의 스마트 안전기술에 대한 중요도 인식의 차이를 확인하기 위하여 설문조사를 진행하였다. 취약계층 작업자들은 외국어 지원 분야, 위험경고 분야, 신체 착용 모니터링 분야에 대한 스마트 안전기술을 중요하다고 인식하고 있었으며, 향후 취약계층에 대해 스마트 안전기술을 확대해야 한다는 결론을 도출하였다.

  • 현재 주택보급률은 100%를 넘기고 지속적으로 보급률이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 주택보급률은 주거 서비스 정책에 있어 양적 공급 중심에서 주거 환경의 질 향상으로 변화되고 있다. 주택보급률 증가에도 여전히 주거 취약계층에 대해서는 실질적 접근이 어렵고 필요한 시기에 주거서비스를 이용하기에는 미흡한 부분이 많이 있다. 또한, 주거취약계층의 범위 확대로 주거 서비스에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이러한 문제를 보완하기 위해 정책 및 지원 사업 확대를 통해 주거취약계층에 대한 물량 확보 및 공급계획을 수립하고 있지만 독립적인 생활을 보장 할 수 없는 시설 및 공동입주가 주를 이루고 있다. 본 논문에서는 취약계층 주거 서비스를 지원하기 위한 IoT 환경 기반 취약계층 주거 지원 시스템을 제안한다. 제안 시스템은 주거 환경의 질을 향상하고 서비스 중심의 지원 서비스를 제공한다. 제안시스템을 통해 취약계층의 삶의 질을 향상하고 자립 생활이 가능한 주거 환경을 지원하여 적절한 사회참여 기회를 제공 받을 수 있다. 향후 연구로는 다양한 취약계층을 고려한 시스템으로 확장하여 사회적 약자 증가로 발생하는 문제를 보완한다.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to estimate the effects of a health mentoring program on fasting blood sugar, total cholesterol, triglyceride, physical activity, self care behavior and social support changes among community-dwelling vulnerable elderly individuals with diabetes. Methods: A non-equivalent control group pre-post-test design was used. Participants were 70 community-dwelling vulnerable elderly individuals with diabetes. They were assigned to the experimental (n=30) or comparative (n=30) or control group (n=28). The experimental group participated in the health mentoring program, while the comparative group participated in health education program, the control group did not participate in any program. Data analyses involved a chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, a generalized linear model, and the Bonferroni correction, using SPSS 23.0. Results: Compared to the control group, the experimental and comparative groups showed a significant decrease in fasting blood sugar, total cholesterol, and triglyceride. Compared to the comparative and control groups, the experimental group showed significant improvement in self care behavior. However, there were no statistical differences in physical activity or social support among the three groups. Conclusion: These findings indicate that the health mentoring program is an effective intervention for community-dwelling vulnerable elderly individuals with diabetes. This program can be used as an efficient strategy for diabetes self-management within this population.

  • Purpose: To explore the barriers and solutions of immunization programs for children among vulnerable classes in the position of service providers in Community health centers. Method: Data were collected through focus group interviews with 3 groups (17 providers), and were analyzed according to the analytic method of Morgan (1998) and Krueger (1998). Results: The following five categories were identified: difficulties in obtaining a list of children among vulnerable classes, difficulties in first contact with them, difficulties in up-to-date immunization, various difficulties according to the types of vulnerable family and suggestions of solution. These results indicated that there are many difficulties in providing expanded immunization service for children among vulnerable classes in terms of manpower, cooperation of departments in public health centers and linkages between health and welfare. Finally, the characteristics of the types of vulnerable family need to be elucidated. Conclusion: To increase immunization rates among children of vulnerable classes, policies need to be prepared at the public health organization itself and the linkages between health and welfare and need for hiring additional personnel.

  • Purpose: This study evaluates the efficacy of a Self-Care Reinforcement Program (SCRP) based on the Selection Optimization Compensation (SOC) model, in socially vulnerable elderly women with metabolic syndrome. Methods: This study adopts a pretest-posttest nonequivalent control group design. The participants were 64 socially vulnerable elderly Korean women with metabolic syndrome (experimental group: 31, control group: 33). Participants' body composition analysis, nutrient intake, risk factors of metabolic syndrome, depressive symptoms, and social network were measured. Data were analyzed with an independent t-test; statistical significance levels were set at p<.05. The SCRP, including metabolic syndrome education, nutritional education, exercise, and social network, was performed three times a week for 8 weeks. Results: There were statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups in terms of systolic blood pressure, diastolic pressure, fasting blood sugar, triglycerides, sodium intake, depressive symptoms, and social networks. Conclusion: The SCRP is effective and can be recommended as a community health nursing intervention for socially vulnerable elderly women with metabolic syndrome.

  • Purpose: This study aimed at describing the characteristics and nursing needs of vulnerable families in a City. Methods: A total of 427 vulnerable families enrolled in the Visiting Health Care Center in K-gu of S city were investigated in this study. Data were collected using questionnaires for one year from Jan to Dec, 2003, and analysed using mean, standard deviation and $x^2$. Results: Most of the vulnerable families investigated here showed many deficits, especially incomplete family structure (62.8%), financial problem (84.0%), lack of support (55.8%) were prevalent. The score of level of economic status in Family Capability for Self management ($1.95{\pm}0.65$) was lowest, and the score of perception of family problem and health of family members ($2.62{\pm}0.78$) was highest. The four family groups divided according to the total score of family management capability showed significant differences in family interaction, support, and coping domain. The total score of family management capability increased as family functioning-related problems decreased in the vulnerable families. Conclusion: In order to find vulnerable families, and improve their family function, it is required to develop the systematic assesment tools, community supportive systems and nursing interventions for family strength.

  • Purpose: This study attempted to estimate the need for home visiting nurse at public health centers. Methods: A model was generated to estimate a community's home visiting health service needs in 16 regions and a workload analysis was adopted to estimate the number of required Nurses. Data were collected from 16 public health centers using the South Korean government's open-information systems. Subjects were divided into three groups: vulnerable social group, bottom 10% income group, and bottom 20% income group. Results: The analysis revealed that 2,158 and 6,667 nurses were needed to provide home visiting health service for the bottom 10% and 20% income groups, respectively. It was estimated that for the vulnerable social group, 10,336 nurses were needed to provide home visiting health service, implying that the need-based demand for nurses is well over 5 times the number currently employed. Conclusion: The results indicate that the number of currently employed nurses is insufficient for the health management of vulnerable social groups. The government should consider active employment policies to encourage nurses to apply for home visiting health service.

  • This study aimed to improve the level of satisfaction and service quality of a forest experience education program for vulnerable social groups by administering a survey problems of the program and suggested improvements. 428 participants in the program. Reliability analysis of the survey yielded values of, Cronbach's α value was higher than 0.8 for all items, indicating very high reliability. Importance-performance analysis (IPA), a method of measuring and comparing the degree of satisfaction, found two factors: "first need for correction" which included "diversity of programs" and "professionalism of programs"; and "the need for sustained effort" which included "benefits of programs", "the role of program instructors" and "the interest of programs". Previously, forest experience education focused on programs involving base expansion and promotion, or quantitative expansion education. Therefore, this study is meaningful in providing basic data on forest experience education for vulnerable social groups.
