우리나라는 2015년 기준, 65세 이상 노인인구 비중이 13.1%로써 '고령화 사회(aging society)'에 진입하였으며, OECD 국가 중 인구 고령화 증가율 1위에 이를 정도로 급속한 노인인구 증가를 나타내고 있다. 이에 대한 대비책의 일환으로 한국정부는 2008년 7월, '노인장기요양보험제도를 시행하였고, 이후 2015년까지 노인요양시설의 규모는 무려 220.2%에 이르는 급속한 양적 신장을 나타내고 있다. 이러한 양적 증가에 대하여 환경의 질적 향상에 대한 필요성이 대두되며 색채환경은 가장 효과적인 환경개선의 방법으로 인정받고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 양적 증가일로에 있는 한국 노인요양시설 환경의 질적 향상을 위하여, 이의 공간적 기능을 지원하는 색채환경을 파악하고, 예비수요자인 고령자들을 대상으로 노인요양시설 색채환경에 대한 의식조사 및 선호색채 조사를 실시하여, 수요자 의식 및 선호경향이 반영된 노인요양시설의 색채환경 계획의 방향 제시를 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위하여 노인요양시설의 정의 및 현황, 선행연구 동향, 그리고 공간기능별과 색채환경을 파악하고, 부산, 경남지역 60대 이상 고령자 총 100명(남자 52명, 여자 48명)을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여, 노인요양시설 색채환경에 대한 의식 및 기능별 선호색채를 도출하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 노인요양시설 색채환경에 대한 '의식조사' 결과로 노인요양시설 선정 시 가장 중요하게 생각하는 요소는 서비스(37%), 의료수준(20%), 위치(19%)의 순으로 나타났으며, 실내색채 계획에 대한 중요성은 대부분 인식하지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 노인요양시설 실내색채계획에 대한 필요성은, '그렇다'(32%), '매우 그렇다'(25%)의 순으로 나타나 요양시설의 색채도입이 필요함을 시사하고 있다. 둘째, 노인요양시설 실내색채에 대한 설문조사 결과, 거주공간기능(침실)에 대한 선호색상은 R, P, G의 순으로, 간호공간기능(프로그램실)에 대한 선호색상은 G, R, Y의 순으로, 공용공간기능(로비)에 대한 선호색상은 R, G, Y의 순으로 나타나, 전반적으로 R계열의 색상을 선호하는 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of long-term care visiting nursing centers in communities using data envelopment analysis (DEA). Methods: Data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire. The average number of staff per 6 months and total space of center were used as input variables. The average number of clients per 6 months and the average profits per 6 months were used as output variables. EMS Window version 3.1 was used to measure the efficiency scores. Descriptive statistics and tobit regression were applied to analyze the general characteristics of the variables and the factors affecting efficiency scores. Results: The average efficiency of 30 long-term care visiting nursing centers in communities was approximately 66.9% on technical efficiency analysis, and 79.1% on scale efficiency analysis. Eight nursing centers on technical efficiency analysis and 12 centers on scale efficiency analysis had 100.0% efficiency. Conclusion: Our findings reveal that long-term care visiting nursing centers in communities have low operational efficiency. Therefore, it is essential to institute policies and regulations to improve the efficiency of visiting nursing centers and to strengthen the business competencies of center officers.
