The purpose of this study is to analyze the facility standards of the elderly welfare facilities applying the seven principles of the universal design. The facility standards of the elderly welfare facilities were limited to the provisions of the "Enforcement Regulation of the Elderly Welfare Act". There are few legal regulations applying the universal design in the construction of the elderly welfare facilities. The facility standards are set only with the minimum requirements such as securing the safety of the user, securing the space area, functional convenience, and risk prevention. However, the contents of the regulations are limited to the minimum standards for functional convenience and safety required for living. In conclusion, in the elderly welfare facilities, the notion of universal design, which considers not only the elderly, but also service providers, employees, and general visitors, should be considered.

본 연구는 최근 사회적 여건의 급격한 변화에 따라 제기되고 있는 노인문제, 장애자문제와 가정 해체에 의한 아동 및 청소년비행과 범죄문제, 여성의 높은 취업율에 의한 육아보육 및 부녀복지문제 등 삶의 질과 관련되는 광범위한 복지문제중 복지의 범위를 한정하여 대구의 복지시설현황과 분포특성을 고찰하여 지역사회의 복지시설 입지선정에 보탬이 되고자 하였다. 먼저 우리나라의 복지제도와 복지정책을 개관하고 대구의 사회복지시설현황을 이용시설과 수용시설로 대별하여 고찰하였다. 그리고 이러한 각 시설들의 분포특성을 규명하기 위해 각 동별로 생활보호대상자수, 60세 이상의 노인인구 및 노인인구비율, 6세 이하 아동인구 및 인구비율을 파악하여 각 시설들의 분포와의 관계를 설명하고 지도화하였다. 그 결과 각 시설들의 분포는 그 시설을 주로 이용하는 연령충의 분포 및 저소득층의 분포와 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있음을 확인하였다. 이는 우리의 사회복지시설이 아직도 보편적인 시설이 아니라 소외계층에 제한된 시설임이 입증되었으며 앞으로는 좀 더 보편적인 시설로의 운영 및 전향을 제언하며 시설의 불균등분포의 문제와 아울러 노후화와 염세성도 문제점으로 지적하고 싶다.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the basic data on the direction of housing research trends by dividing both research methods and research contents through precedent studies related to elderly housing. We drew four major conclusions through this research. First, in general, the research activities for elderly housing has been conducted actively since 2000 to begin in earnest after 1990. This result shows that it is related with the reform of welfare laws for the elderly in 1993, with the change of government policies and the increase of social interest in elderly people's lives. Second, early studies had been started to focus on elderly home residents if we look into research results according to research methods. In 1993, The Elderly Welfare Act was reformed by the government and then researches for elderly welfare facilities were also increased by a permission of government to run private elderly welfare facilities for making profit. This movement caused to expand research targets from general elderly people to their families, facility staffs and experts. Third, in case of research contents past studies were mostly conducted on the space planning and its actual situation. However, current studies are made under diverse viewpoint with the increase of elderly housing and elderly welfare facilities according to reforms of laws and changes of resident's perception. Fourth, because of rapid transition to an aging society the studies of elderly housing were influenced by the changes of policies and social consciousness.

이 연구는 노인의료복지서비스의 질적 제고를 위해 노인의료복지시설 소속 종사자들을 대상으로 관리의 변수들 간의 구조적인 관계를 살펴보기 이전에 시설유형에 따른 자기효능감과 직무만족에 대한 요양보호사들의 주관적 인식의 차이를 분석해 보고자 하였다. 실증분석결과 요양보호사들이 근무하는 노인의료복지시설 유형에 따른 인식의 차이는 없었지만 전체적으로 요양보호사들의 자기효능감과 직무만족의 충족이 노인의료서비스 제공에 있어서 중요하다는 것을 강조하였다. 따라서 이 연구는 노인의료복지시설 종사자 관리의 효율화 방안을 위한 이론적 기초를 제공하였다는데 그 의의가 있다.
