본 연구는 저출산·고령사회에 따른 인구구조 변화에 능동적으로 대응하고, 노인복지에 대한 정책수립에 기여하도록 하기 위해 「노인복지법」에 대한 검토가 필요하다는 점을 전제로 하여, 「노인복지법」의 문제점을 찾아 이를 개선하는 방안을 제시하였다. 첫째, 「노인복지기본법」의 제정이다. 「노인복지법」 개선을 위한 제안으로서 노인복지법을 전면 개편하여 고령사회 노인복지에 관한 최상위법이자 기본법으로서의 지위를 부여하는 방안이다. 둘째, 노인 보건·복지 조치 및 노인복지시설 등에 관한 법률의 정비가 필요하다. 「노인복지법」을 재정비하여 노인의 보건복지 조치 및 노인복지 시설에 관한 법으로 그 법적 성격을 명확하게 개정하는 방안이다. 셋째, 「노인복지법」의 법률 체계를 재정비해야 한다. 현행 「노인복지법」에서 담고 있는 주요한 복지정책들의 내용을 그래도 유지하되 앞서 언급한 체계상의 문제점에 초점을 맞추어 개정하자는 방안이다. 결론적으로 현행 「노인복지법」은 제정 당시의 시대적 상황과 노인에 대한 기본적인 예우차원에서 이루어진 것으로, 저출산·고령사회에 대처하기에는 미흡한 점이 많다. 따라서, 본 연구는 인구구조의 변화에 따른 시대적 요청을 받아들일 수 있는 「노인복지법」의 개정 및 보완을 제시하는 바이다.

현재 노인복지회관은 1981년 제정된 노인복지법에 근거한 노인여가시설로 규정되어, 각 시도별로 건립되고 있지만, 각 시설 관에서 제공하는 다양한 서비스가 체계화되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 더욱이 지방자치제의 전면적 실시로 인해 각 자치단체별로 건립이 급속히 증가하고 있다. 호남지역의 경우 2005년 36개소가 운영 중이며 노인복지회관의 건립 형태를 보면, 노인인구를 고려하여 건립되기보다는 지방자치단체별로 건져되고 있어 이용서비스프로그램 및 그에 대응하는 공간구성계획이나 면적구성계획들에 관한 세부계획이 전무한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 호남지역의 노인복지회관을 조사대상으로 연면적분류에 따른 이용서비스프로그램 공간분류와 공간위치를 비교 분석하였으며, 각 이용공간으로 상담지도공간, 의료재활공간, 사회교육공간, 복리후생공간, 관리공간의 각 시설의 공간규모와 구성을 조사 분석하였다. 이를 기반으로 본 연구는 연면적에 따른 이용서비스공간구성과 규모를 분석하여 향후 노인복지회관의 공간구성계획 시 필요한 기초자료를 제시하는데 그 목적이 있다.

The study analyzed a diachronic distribution, social meanings and social evaluations of ROOJIN. 'Headline Database of Newspaper Articles' and 'Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese' by KOKKEN were used as research data. There were 305 newspaper articles (About 0.2%) which contained the word ROOJIN at 'Headline Database of Newspaper Articles'. The number of newspaper articles related to ROOJIN started to increase in a rapid rate in 1972 and 1973. They were also increased in 1976, from 1981 to 1987, 1992 and 1993. The reasons of increasing of newspaper articles related to ROOJIN on those 4 periods of time could be summarized as follows. Firstly, there was a increasement of ROOJIN who are lonely, are not able to move about freely or live alone. Secondly, the understanding of a symptom of aging called BOKE was necessary. Thirdly, there were negative evaluations in a society towards ROOJIN. There were 453 cases which contained the word ROOJIN at 'Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese' on the data since 2000. The most frequently used words were ones that are related to senior care facilities. There were 109 cases (24%) which contain those words. '~SISETSU', '~SENTA-', '~HO-MU' were presented as words related to senior care facilities. Among them, 78 cases contained the word '~HO-MU' which was similar to a home with family members. The second most frequently used words were ones that are related to 'welfare for the aged' and they are led by 'medical care for the aged'. They occupied about 8%. Institutionalization of medical care for the aged, medical expenses, nursing were presented as words related to 'medical care for the aged'. Words that were related to 'welfare for the aged' led by 'senior care facilities' and 'medical care for the aged' occupied about 32% of research data. As mentioned above, problems of the aged in Modern Japan such as negative evaluations in a society towards ROOJIN, ROOJIN who are lonely, are not able to move about freely or live alone, BOKE could be identified by analyzing the data. Also, The frequent usage of words such as 'Home for the aged', 'medical care for the aged' and 'nursing' could be identified. The outcome of analysis suggested that a family traditionally had a function of solving problems of the aged but that function was reduced in modern Japan. It also suggested that there was a tendency to outsource problems of the aged as much as possible.

This study has been performed to explore conveniences and inconveniences of daily lives in rural residential care facilities among the elderly residents. In this study, five males and seven females aged 68 to 78 were asked about socio-familial and physical aspects of their daily lives in the facilities such as meals, social activities, family visits, recreation, and health care. The answers of the qualitative interview were drawn as follow; first, the residents perceived well planned regular meals and snacks, free visits of friends, regularly supervised daily sanitary activities, periodic outdoor activities, education programs provided by religious experts, and pastoral farming lives as most convenient aspects of the retirement facilities. In addition, some felt that facility life made them free of familial conflicts, while others appealed fear of being forgotten because of distant location. On the other hand, they perceived the supervised group activities and meals as major inconveniences. They also felt persistently depressed when closely observing serious illness or deaths of their co-residents. Therefore in this study, suggestions were made as follows: first, combination of normal family life and retirement facility should be developed in the mixed form of community welfare center and shared home. Second, intensive medical care facilities should be in collaboration with the retirement facilities, so that the residents are relieved from stressful contacts with extremely ill patients in the residential area.

In aging Korean society, many elderly people have difficulty in the areas of health, economic insecurity, role-loss(both work & spouse), loneliness, and family conflicts. Above all, retirement from work is one of the most important stressful life events having influences an elderly's persons economic & social activities, mental state, health status, and Lifelong educational programs could help the aged cope with these situations in later life. Health and social welfare are commonly recognized as an important value of life. They also have an effect on each other. Most people agree that the promotion of health and social welfare is to take a short-cut toward achieving well-being. Thus we need to develop a substantially integrated program of lifelong education, before and after retirement, for the promotion of health and welfare. Universities have the advantage of practicing lifelong educational programs because they have more material, intellectual, and human resources than any other educational facilities. As a result, the purposed of this study is to suggest life-long educational programs for promoting both health conditions and the level of social welfare by utilizing an aging center affiliated with a university. Specifically, the developmental courses of pre-retirement, learning in retirement, elder-hostels, and the connection between pre and post-retirement educational programs are proposed in this study.
