Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors influencing nursing needs of mothers caring for children suffering from acute diseases and being treated in hospital. Method: The data were collected, using a nursing needs, social support, burden, and stress questionnaire. Data collection was done from July 10, to October 20, 2001 in the pediatric department of a general hospital. The data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics. Result: The results of this study are as follows. There were statistically significant differences in nursing needs according to differences in age, education level, marital status, religion, family income and relationship with spouse. The relationship between the nursing needs of the mother and anxiety (r=.758, p <.01), social support (r=-.659, p<.01), stress (r=.324, p <.01) were the most significant variables. The stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that anxiety, social support and stress define nursing needs at 57.5%, 4.3% and 1.1% respectively.

This study investigated the attitudes toward childbearing and the need for policies supporting childcare according to the mothers' employment status. Data from 6 employed and 6 unemployed housewives with 1 child were collected using in-depth interviews. The main results from the data analysis comprised 4 themes: 1. the ideal and the real about childbearing; 2. changed experiences after bearing the first child; 3. the meaning of parenting; and 4. husband's division of household/caring labor. A difference between employed and unemployed housewives was founded in their attitude toward childbearing. Furthermore, it was verified that the respondents were not satisfied with present policies and services for childbearing and childcare and they required existing policies to be more effective. The implications for related polices are suggested on the basis of these findings.

본 연구의 목적은 발달장애인 부모의 성년후견제도 이용관련 예측요인을 탐색하는 것이다. 이러한 연구 목적의 달성을 위해 앤더슨 행동모형을 근거로 발달장애인 부모 451명을 대상으로 한 성년후견제도 이용욕구 설문조사자료를 분석하였다. 분석자료로는 2011년 서울시 중 장년 발달장애인가족 복지욕구조사를 활용하였으며, 분석방법은 SPSS 22.0을 이용하여 빈도분석, 기술통계분석, 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 주돌봄자가 직업이 없는 집단일수록, 피후견 대상인 발달장애인이 남성인 집단이 성년후견 이용욕구가 통계적으로 유의미하게 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 소득이나 사회보장제도 관련요인에서는 가구월평균소득이 높을수록, 욕구요인 중에서는 제3자에 의한 돌봄욕구가 존재할수록 성년후견 이용욕구가 통계적으로 유의미하게 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 발달장애인의 의사소통능력, 장애등급, 돌봄부담의 정도는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과는 첫째, 성년후견제도의 활성화를 위해서는 이용에 관련되는 비용의 정부지원이 중요한 조건이 될 수 있다. 둘째, 발달장애인 부모의 성년후견제도 이용욕구와 관련된 제3자 돌봄욕구 개념 및 문화적 요인을 규명하기 위한 후속연구가 필요하다는 것이다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore nurses' experience with caring for COVID-19 patients in a negative pressure room amid the spread of the pandemic. Methods: This study was a qualitative research, and focus group interviews were used to collect data. Three focus groups comprising 19 nurses were interviewed from February 17 to 25, 2021. All interviews were recorded and transcribed verbatim with the consent of the participants. The verbatim transcripts were scrutinized using thematic analysis. Results: Two main themes emerged from the analysis: 'Struggling in an isolated space' and 'Limitations of nursing infrastructure and system'. The nurses caring for COVID-19 patients experienced anxiety and fear about the infection, physical exhaustion, emotional burnout, and a sense of duty as a nurse. They also acknowledged the lack of guidelines, increased task and burden, limitations of nursing care, and the demand for improving the limitations of the nursing system. Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrate that nurses caring for COVID-19 patients encounter physical and emotional problems within the limited healthcare system. The study suggests that comprehensive interventions are needed for nurses. Furthermore, detailed guidelines, strengthening of nursing personnel, and improvements to the nursing system are vital to effectively cope with the pandemic. The government and medical institutions should be aware of the needs of nurses and what they are going through, and make efforts to improve the quality of life of healthcare workers and create a safe healthcare environment.

본 연구는 방과 후 아동지도사 양성 교육과정을 마친 학습자들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시해 방과 후 아동지도사 양성교육과정에 대한 학습자의 만족도를 알아보고 개선방안을 모색하고자 하였다. 연구결과 연령별로는 40세이상(SD=47.11), 결혼 유무에서는 미혼(SD=27.18), 학력별에서는 고졸(SD=25.55), 소득 수준별로는 200-300만원 소득자(SD=27.42), 참여경로는 인터넷과 온라인 매체(SD=25.91)의 만족도가 가장 높게 나타났다. 참여 동기에 따른 방과후 아동지도사 양성 교육과정에 대한 만족도는 자격증 취득 유리(SD=27.12), 취업에 유리(SD=26.76), 여가활동 도움(SD=26.20), 승진 도움(SD=24,32)순으로 요인별 유의미한 차이는 없었다. 이 같은 결론을 통해 학습자들의 만족도에 기초한 기관운영과 교육프로그램 개발이 필요하다는 시사점을 제시하였다는데 본 연구의 의의가 있다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify differences between the degree of nursing need and nursing performance as perceived by caregivers of hospitalized children. Methods: Participants included 200 main caregivers from two pediatric hospitals where their children had been hospitalized for at least 2 days. Data were collected from October 30 to December 10, 2014. Results: The degree ($2.64{\pm}0.40$) of nursing performance perceived by caregivers with hospitalized children was found to be significantly lower than that ($3.39{\pm}0.21$) of nursing needs of caregivers. Of nursing needs, direct nursing had the highest score at 3.59, and nursing assessment, the lowest at 3.23. For nursing performance, nursing assessment had the highest score at 2.76, and education and counseling, the lowest at 2.35. Conclusion: These results suggest that performance of nursing activities by nurses caring for hospitalized children do not meet the nursing needs of the caregivers. Therefore it is necessary to develop nursing strategies to reduce the gap between nursing needs and nursing performance.

Legal support and support for caring of children were low in the care needs. 6) In the special care need category the there were 15 items. Informational need about immunization and informational need about effects of disease on growth and development were high, above 4.1 points. Need for decubitus care and prevention, sitz bath and incontinence care were low, below 2 points. 7) There were significant differences in degree of care need according to admission rate, education level, marital status, religion and caregiver's religion. In conclusion, homecare needs perceived by hospitalized patient's with cancer was moderate, but informational need was higher than direct care need, leading to the conclusion that the provision of sufficient information to patients with cancer at discharge is needed. Nursing interventions should be developed considering the patient's background.

Purposes: Family living with dementia patients have the burden for caring and suffer from health problems. Therefore, proper supports for their health disorders are required. The purpose of this study with regard to this is to subdivide unmet healthcare needs of family living with dementia patients into affordability, accommodation, and accessibility and figure out the relevant factors. Methodology: The 2017 Community Health Survey was used, and 2,331 families living with dementia patients was included. To figure out the factors with regard to the types of unmet healthcare needs, multinominal logistic regression analysis was conducted. Findings: According to the analysis result, sex, age, monthly household income, economic activity, self-rated health, self-rated stress and perception of depressive symptoms turned out to be the factors related to unmet healthcare needs. Regarding affordability, unmet healthcare needs were low when the object was female, over 65, highly educated, and monthly household income were high. On the other hand, unmet healthcare needs was high when self-rated health was bad, self-rated stress was high, and had depression. With regard to accommodation, unmet healthcare needs were low when the object was over 65. Unmet healthcare needs were high when the object was female, economically active and had depression, and self-rated health was high. Regarding accessibility, unmet healthcare needs were low when the object was high school graduate, but it was high when self-rated health was bad. Practical Implication: This study confirmed that the family with dementia patients had a high proportion of unmet healthcare needs due to affordability and accommodation. The existing main discussion was that the experience of unmet healthcare needs normally occurred due to economic reasons, but a consideration on various cases and factors is required to ultimately achieve the policy goal to reduce the unmet healthcare needs of the family living with dementia.
