Dental treatment for the disabled should be a customized that considers the characteristics and degree of cooperation of each disabled patient. There are additional considerations during implant treatment and tooth extraction in disabled patients. Since some brain lesion disorder or cardiac disease patients may be taking antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications, it is necessary to evaluate whether these medications should be discontinued before an invasive procedure. Precautions should be taken for patients with heart valve disease considering the risk of infective endocarditis, especially during invasive dental procedures. Moreover, disabled patients may have difficulty in following instructions and cautions. There are specific considerations for each stage of implant treatment in disabled patients. In the case of patients who are in the pre- or post-transplant state, it is necessary to assess their general condition and oral disease due to the risk of infection. Since disabled patients with various systemic diseases may visit the dental clinic, it is important to understand their characteristics and treatment process in order to flexibly adjust the dental treatment plan accordingly.

The disabled has remarkable difficulties to participate social activities and those, that block them up from access to public facilities and the comfortable habitation so they should get help from others, are mainly made by architectural facts. Buildings without impediment which consider the disabled would be the things responding to the needs of the times.

And to establish radical standards for the disabled to use cultural and assembly facilities through scrutinizing facilities to get access for the disabled and movement circulations in the cultural facilities should be the conclusion. This study which is a kind of fundamental study to construct cultural facilities without obstacles for the disabled began from consideration for the problem flow line of the disabled in cultural facilities and analyzed flow lines for them to use, access, and evacuate from those which are main facilities in the region. Though, evacuation rules in cultural and assembly facilities are recommendatory in existing laws for convenience of the disabled, the congestion of the crowd coming out after performances impedes safe flows of both the disabled and crowds. Further, in case of evacuation, there would be more serious problems. Therefore, consideration of reinforcement for existing laws for convenience of the disabled is needed.

This study aims to help utilize the dental treatment institutions for the disabled and provide high quality of medical services in the future by identifying the satisfaction factors for the patients of the dental clinics for the disabled. As a study method, surveys were completed 200 patients who visited the dental hospital for the disabled. Among these, the surveys from 187 patients were statistically analyzed. The main findings of this study are as follow. Since the study showed that there were differences in the satisfaction factors between the disabled and non-disabled people, subsequent studies needs to be done to develop measuring tools to accurately accommodate the satisfaction factors of the disabled. In addition, as the low spatial accessibility in terms of distance and location was found in this study, more dental treatment institutions for the disabled are required. In the meantime, the survey results found that the most satisfactory aspect was the lower treatment cost compared to other clinics, and that the most important factor when choosing a clinic was also treatment. In addition, given the fact that the group that took a prosthetic treatment, which was non-insured treatment, showed higher satisfaction compared to the group that did not, it suggests that the economic burden plays an important role for the dental treatment of the disabled.

장애인에 대한 도서관 현황조사 및 지원방안 연구는 지금까지 주로 공공도서관을 중심으로 이루어져 왔다. 그러나, 대학의 장애인 학생 수가 점차 증가하고 장애인 학생들에 대한 지원 및 서비스가 필요해짐에 따라 대학도서관의 장애인 지원 시설, 장비 및 서비스에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 조사결과, 많은 대학도서관의 경우 이와 같은 필요성에도 불구하고 장애인서비스에 대한 인식부족으로 법률적 기반이나 기준에 근거한 대응방안의 마련보다 부분적인 지원에 그치고 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 따라서, 각각의 대학도서관에 장애인을 위한 모든 자료를 구비하는 것은 현실적으로 어렵기 때문에, 장애인 전담사서 지정에 의한 서비스 제공 및 지원방안을 마련하고, 관련기관, 단체, 협회 및 특수도서관과의 협력을 통해 정보를 제공하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 홈페이지를 이용한 장애인 서비스의 안내 및 시청각장애인을 위한 도서관 이용안내서 제작 등 적극적인 홍보방안도 필요한 것으로 조사되었다.

본 연구는 2010년부터 2012년까지의 장애인고용패널조사 자료를 적용하여 구성집단별 보건의료비 불평등을 분석함으로써 장애인 가구의 보건의료 불평등 개선정책 수립에 기초자료를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 이행되었다. 분석결과, 지니계수에서는 여성장애인, 경제활동 미참여, 40대, 신체외부장애, 중증장애인일수록 보건의료비 지출에서 더욱더 불평등하였으며, 경북지역은 불평등이 계속 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 보건의료 소비가 낮은 그룹에서의 격차에 가중치를 부여한 엔트로피지수에서는 여성장애인, 경제활동 미참여, 정신적장애, 중증장애인일수록 보건의료 소비가 더욱더 불평등하였으며, 울산과 경북지역은 불평등이 심해지는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 구성집단별 요인분해에서 집단 간보다는 집단 내의 보건의료비 불평등이 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 연구의 제한점과 함의를 제안하였다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the general attitude of dental hygiene students toward the disabled and their oral care in an effort to improve their awareness of the disabled and their accessibility to them and suggest some of the right directions for dental hygiene education related to dental treatment for the disabled. The subjects in this study were dental hygiene students at three different colleges located in South Jeolla Province. The general attitude of the selected students toward the disabled and their oral care were investigated from November 1 to December 20, 2007. The findings of the study were as follows: When their general attitude toward disabled people was checked, they agreed the most that there was nothing that the disabled lagged behind nondisabled people. Those who felt the need for that took a more positive attitude in eight items, and the differences between them and the others were significant. Whether they were cognizant of the necessity of dental treatment education for the disabled made the most significant differences to each variable of their attitude toward the oral care of disabled people, and those who were aware of the necessity showed a more positive attitude in five items. The differences between them and the others were significant. The findings of the study illustrated that the dental hygiene students took a relatively favorable attitude toward disabled people's oral health care, and that they hardly felt a sense of distance to them. So it can be predicted that they will get to take the right attitude to them in the future. Yet the dental hygiene curriculum should give more weight to dental treatment education for the disabled and offer more relevant information, since they didn't get high scores on positive attitude.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the improvement of disabled access to healthcare institution located in Jongno-gu, Seoul in 2011 compared to 2003 since disabled access has been mandatory in healthcare institutions located in new buildings by the amended law in 2004. We had investigated 10 assessment items for disabled access in 166 healthcare institutions located in Jongno-gu, Seoul and the results were compared with those of 2003 survey. On average, 74.1% of the healthcare organizations has equipped with items for disabled access. However the adequately equipped rate for those items was only 39.2%. Compared with the results of 2003 survey, these rates showed a little increase by 4.1% and 8.0%, respectively. There were only 10 healthcare institutions located in new buildings which were constructed after July, 2005. Their average equipped rate(84.4%) and adequately equipped rate(46.8%) were higher than those of the other organizations because the Korean government ruled that healthcare institutions in new buildings must have facilities for the disabled. In conclusion, we confirmed that the accessibility of the disabled to healthcare institution slightly increased. In particular, the healthcare institutions in newly constructed building showed the significant increase of accessibility of the disabled. However, it is founded that disabled access is still not enough for the disabled.
