Method: A questionnaire surveys was conducted on all public health nurses in 25 health centers in Seoul. Result: The major results were as follows: The characteristics of the visiting nurse showed that the average age was 41.1 years, and total nursing experience was 122 months. Their visiting nursing experience was only 30 months. The recipients of visiting nursing services consisted of 60.1% females, and 32.5% of the recipients were over 65 years. The major health problems of the recipients were hypertension, diabetes mellitus, arthritis and psychiatric problems. The visiting frequency was an average of 5.4 times per day, and 357 families were managed per visiting nurse.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the role of hospital-based home health nursing in community care by examining the institutional progress of hospital-based home health nursing and the current status of home health nursing in Korea. Methods: Korean research data, national statistical data, government press releases, and related laws were investigated to clarify the role of hospital-based home health nursing in community care. Results: Korean visiting medical care services, including hospital-based home health nursing, was not found to be sufficient nationwide. The supply of home health nursing did not increase due to the nature of the visiting services that required transportation time, poor profitability due to insufficient insurance fees, and increase in acute beds. Conclusion: The nature of the Korean medical environment and visiting medical care makes it challenging to establish a visiting medical supply system for community care. Therefore, hospital-based home health nursing is an important infrastructure for visiting medical care, and will be a valuable resource to link discharged patients returning to the community when moving health care services. Hence, laws and institutional supplementation to expand the role of home health nursing agencies nationwide are needed along with addressing the limitations in the supply of home health nurses.
Objectives: This study confirms the current status of visiting oral health-care services for the elderly to draw policy implications for revitalization of the visiting oral health care services in the future. Methods: First, a survey was conducted on health centers about the current status of the elderly visiting oral health-care service and how to revitalize it. Next, the number of oral hygiene services provided to the elderly was checked in the long-term care insurance system. Results: Oral health education (100%) was the most common practice in visiting oral health-care service for the elderly, and the most difficult thing in providing services was the lack of dental hygienists (38.9%). The status of oral health-care services in the long-term care insurance system for elderly revealed that the total number of service claims has been confirmed to be zero since the introduction of the system. Conclusions: Despite the existence of a system that provides elderly visiting oral healthcare services, to revitalize it, the law must be amended to secure a dental hygienist as the main agent of the activity and to further take responsibility for autonomous authority and performance.

Methods: The participants in this study were 237 caregivers of infants and preschoolers. Data were collected at the participant's home or public health center. Results: Many of the children did not receive developmental screening tests or dental examinations.
