축사 외부로 배출되는 분진을 제거하고, 축사내부에서 발생되는 악취를 방지하고, 축사에서 배출되는 공기를 살균하여 돈사 외부로 배출되는 공기의 질을 향상시키는 배출 가스 정화장치 개발하려 한다. 축사 내부의 환기에도 적용가능하여 무창돈사에 적용가능 하며, 반응시스템이 축사 내부에 있을 필요가 없기 때문에 내부의 환경에 영향을 받지 않아 반응시스템의 내구수명을 연장시킬 수 있을 뿐 아니라, 내부 환기가 필요없는 무창돈사에 적용할 수 있다. 앞으로는 돈사 뿐만 아니라 계사, 우사 등에도 적용가능성 타진을 조사하고, 무창돈사 시스템의 확보와, 기타 악취배출 장소에서의 냄새제거에 활용 증대하면 좋을 것 같다.

보건복지부는 "보건복지 내부업무 포탈 및 EAM시스템 구축" 이라 명명된 Enterprise Portal 프로젝트를 공공기관 최초로 추진하여 기존의 정보시스템들이 업무 및 지식 기반 하에 유기적으로 상호 연계 및 연동되는 체계적이고 확장성이 뛰어난 포탈시스템으로 구축하였다. 본 논문에서는 보건복지부 정보화 비전 및 추진 현황에 대한 설명과 EP(Enterprise Portal)시스템 도입의 개념 및 장점에 대해 기술하고, 보건복지부가 Enterprise Portal 시스템을 도입하게 된 추진 배경과 기존 시스템(전자결재, 지식관리, 문서관리, 커뮤니티, 게시판, 검색)에 어떻게 적용하였는지에 대해 설명하고자 한다. 아울러 Enterprise Portal 시스템의 적용으로 인한 실제적 효과 및 고려해야 할 문제점에 대해 기술함으로써 향후 Enterprise Portal 시스템을 도입하고자 하는 공공기관/기업체에 추진 방안 및 대응 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

Objective: To study the level of awareness and knowledge about cancers and associated risk factors among households in selected states of India. Methods: In the study 3070 households were interviewed from six states viz, West Bengal, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Mizoram. Results: Knowledge of cancers other than those related to tobacco was very low (prostate 8%, colon 11% ) among the communities, with a poor awareness of warning signs and symptoms. The knowledge varied from state to state. It is found that the major source of information related to cancers was television (38%) followed by friends and relatives (36%). Only about 15 % of respondents had knowledge about cancer awareness camps organized in their districts but they did not have knowledge about the organizers of the camp. Findings suggested a strong need for strengthening of DCCP. Conclusion: It is important to create awareness among community through educational programs on cancer prevention, preventable cancer risk factors, benefits of early diagnosis, and availability of screening facilities. Integration of District Cancer Control activities with NRHM could be the most cost-effective strategy to prevent cancers and rural population.

Purpose: Needs of health-welfare-medical service for the elderly is rapidly increasing in Korea. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the needs of health-welfare-medical service for the long-term care elderly in the community and to compare differences by their characteristics. Method: Needs assessment was completed in the homes of 598 persons over 65 years by using the tool of needs assessment, between November and December, 2003. We examined all the health-welfare-medical service of elderly in the community. Data were analyzed using SAS program. Result: The needs of the long-term care elderly in community was largest 'home visiting service of visiting nurse(87.5%)', and then 'religious, psychological and emotional support(73.9%)', 'home visiting therapy of physician(58.5%)', 'social support service(55.7%)', 'health improvement program of public health center and social welfare center(51.8%)', 'health examination(48.8%)' followed. The difference of health-welfare-medical service needs among characteristics(age, medical security, caregiver existence, and regions) was statistically significant by service contents(p<0.05 or p<0.01). Conclusion: We can apply it in the distribution of community resource and the development of service providing programs by figure out the needs assessment for the long-term care elderly in the community, and consequently, through this, realizing the health maintenance and promotion of the long-term care elderly.

Despite the increase in the demands on collaboration between health and social welfare, the success of such schemes have been limited. The extant literatures tends to be dominated by explanations for needs or short-term outcomes of collaboration rather than systematic follow-up research to apply to the frontline. At the same time, there is no attempt to apply the theories related to collaboration in order to discuss the situation. This study explores the factors hindering such collaborative working in the frontline, through semi-structured interviews with practitioners involved in two pilot projects. A theoretical framework (Equilibrium Model-Sensemaking, E-S model) which combined Equilibrium Model of 'Interorganizational Network' of Benson(1975) and 'Sensmaking' of Weick(1995) for conceptualiing aspects of collaborations such as working atmosphere and agency was applied to the empirical study of the Public Health and Welfare Office(1995-1999) and the Social Welfare office(2004-2006) pilot projects. Data were collected over three months from 8 pilot project areas with practitioners and managers from health and social welfare. The findings show significant regional differences between pilot areas, such as the presence of active leaders and co-location, had a major impact on the ability of practitioners to effectively integrate services. In other words, active leaders tended to influence practitioners' motivation, while co-location encouraging communication between both practitioners, and thus seemed to influence the practices of collaborative working. Furthermore, through E-S model, it is interpreted that this kind of positive experiences about collaborations may impact on the current practitioners' comprehensive perspective towards health and social welfare services in general. The findings could help policy makers consider the practical ways to break down the barriers between health and social welfare.

The purpose of this study was to examine the factors influencing the attitude toward the increasing role of private health insurance(PHI). In the Korea Welfare Panel Data 2007, a sample of 1,675 (adjusted by weight value: 1,607) respondents on an opinion on promoting PHI was used in the study. With independent variables including socio-demographic characteristics, health status, health-related behavior, and opinions on welfare service, ordered-probit model was used to analyze the attitude toward PHI. Negative opinion on the increasing role of PHI were responded by 54.6%(n=877) of the respondents, whereas 22.2%(n=373) were positive and 23.2%(n=357) were neutral. Old people, the better off, those with worse self-assessed health status, and those having an experience of health examination tend to have the positive attitude toward the increasing role of PHI. Women, those with chronic diseases or disorders and those who do not agree that comprehensive welfare benefits reduce work incentive showed negative attitude toward PHI. When comparing the needs for PHI before and after medical utilization, ex-ante need tends to strengthen the tendency to support private health insurance. This study will contribute to the discussion on the optimal mix of public and private health insurance in Korea by a better recognition of attitude toward PHI and health care system.
