Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a website-based patient safety culture promotion program that could be implemented by nurses in real work scenarios. Methods: This study was a methodological study. A patient safety culture promotion program, called 'Safe Culture, Save Patients' was developed, based on structuration theory and performance engineering approaches. Results: This program was delivered in the form of a website containing contents about changes in the work environment, information about accidents and the improvement process details, as well as a program for motivation. The program was tested about the validity on contents and usability - a panel of 14 experts confirmed its validity using the contents validity index (CVI), with a resulting S-CVI of .980. Usability was evaluated by 11 nurses, which allowed finalize the program. Conclusion: The 'Safe Culture, Save Patients' program was a valid program that could be applied in clinical practice immediately. The results of this study warrant further studies to evaluate the effects of this patient safety culture promotion program.

This study analyzed the performance of educational program for the employees of the work-learning dual system training center using the results of the satisfaction survey of 2,543 and then, suggested implications for enhancing the effectiveness of the curriculum. As a result of the analysis, this educational program showed very high level of satisfaction and was evaluated to provide successful education. Education participant satisfaction was found to be affected by the curriculum situation and participant characteristics. Satisfaction in terms of instructor, subject, facility environment, and operation was all found to have a significant influence on the effectiveness of the educational program for employees of the work-learning dual system training center.

The Work-Study parallel program has been promoted as a key policy to resolve the mismatch between industrial sites and school education and realize a competency-centered society, and as of December 2022, 16,664 companies participated in the training. Learning companies play a very important role as education and training supply organizations that conduct field training. In this study, for the evaluation of learning companies participating in work-study program, the authors derive important factors that determine the quality of on-site education and training by analyzing the cognitive structure of experts in charge of the company and present evaluation indicators for learning enterprises. Therefore, it is intended to lay the foundation for promoting the quality of work-study parallel program.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate how having a family care program in the workplace for working women with preschool children affects these women's work and family life. This study employs a panel analysis based on data from the Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women and Families. The major results are as follows. First, financial support for nursery care is only significantly related to the turnover of married women with preschool children. Second, the negative effects of work on the family are significantly influenced by financial support for nursery care and maternity leave. Third, financial support for nursery care is also significantly related to the positive effects of work on the family. In conclusion, a family-friendly care program including financial support for nursery care and maternity leave in the workplace is an important support system for working mothers in raising their children.

To enhance the university-industry collaboration, a novel program named as Internship & Capstone Design Integrated program (ICIP) is developed by Dongguk University. Senior students must take one Capstone design class for graduation. By participating in summer Internship and one-year Capstone Design work, practical problems given by businesses are solved. The ICIP is a Project and Internship-based course. By participating in summer internship and one-year Capstone Design work, practical problems given by businesses are solved. The internship course requires students to work in teams under mentors who work in the partner company proposed project themes. Students apply their academic experiences in constructing real projects at work under the supervision of their site mentors and academic advisor. In this regard, this study attempts to present a case study on the assessment of program outcomes using the Internship.

The environment of computational grid is composed of the LAN/WAN each of which has different efficiency and heterogeneous network conditions, and where various programs are running. In this environment, the role of the resource selection broker is very important because the work of each node is performed by considering heterogeneous network environment and the computing power of each node according to the characteristics of a program. In this paper, a new resource selection broker is presented that decides the number of work processes to be allocated at each node by considering network state information and the performance of each node according to the characteristics of a program in the environment of computational grid. The proposed resource selection broker has three steps as follows. First, the performance ratio of each node is computed using latency-bandwidth-cpu mixture information reflecting the characteristics of a program, and the number of work processes that will be performed at each node are decided by this ratio. Second, RSL file is automatically made based on the number of work processes decided at the previous step. Finally, each node creates work processes by using that RSL file and performs the work which has been allocated to itself. As experimental results, the proposed method reflecting characteristics of a program, compared with the existing (uniformity) and latency-bandwidth method is improved $278%\sim316%,\;524%\sim595%,\;924%\sim954%$ in the point of work amount, work process number, and node number respectively.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate an e-Learning Program designed to enhance novice nurses's performance ability Method: The e-Learning program was designed for novice nurses before beginning to work in a hospital using a KMS(Knowledge Management System). This study was carried out from February 2006 to April 2007. The program had progressive steps including design, pilot test & modification, contents development, program application and evaluation. After the program design and pilot testing, the learner's satisfaction was analyzed. Result: The program site is http://kms.emc.ac.kr titled, 'Cyber Education Center'. The sixteen part course has been developed as follows: blood sugar test, skin test, insulin test 1, insulin test 2, blood culture, blood sampling, heat therapy, cold therapy, glycerin enema, preparation of operation, oxygen therapy, suction technique, transfusion, foley catheterization and aseptic technique. The overall learner's satisfaction score was 4.08 out of 5 points. Conclusion: E-Learning could be useful for education and nursing work. This method may be effective for clinical nurses.

The PT program provides relief to most patients with symptom of TOS. So the purpose of our study is to evaluate a effects of PT program in patients with TOS. PT program included orthopaedic manual therapy with the aim of restoring the function of the upper thoracic aperture is to be recommended, and long-term following is advisable. 1. Mean treatment duration was over an 11.4 day(range 4~24). 2. At the follow-up evaluation, 88.1% of the patients were satisfied with the effects of their therapy. 3. 73% of the patients returened to work after PT and 88% of the patients carried through the recommendations given at discharge during follow up. 4. Normalized grip strength and Tinel' sign predicted patient satisfaction(p< .001) and return to work(p< .001). 5. Return to work was more often successful if the work was sedentary rather than heavy (p< .05).

Work related musculoskeletal disorders became a hot issue in Korea since many workers reported musculoskeletal disorder problems. Korean government enacted a law to require companies to take measures to prevent musculoskeletal disorders at work. This study found workers' WMSDs symptoms in squatting work posture which the rate of the occurrence was relatively high among work types to bring about WMSDs in railroad cars maintenance works and analyzed to compare the hazardous jobs in the industrial safety health law in South Korea with the caution jobs in Washington State in U.S. The hazardous jobs in South Korea were more effective in squatting work posture from this study result and this study data will be a great help to plan and carry out an effective prevention program about WMSDs.
