재가복지대상자의 특성과 서비스 만족도
Abstract
The objectives of this research are (1) to identify characteristics and needs of the recipients of home care, and type of services (2) to examine the factors that predicts the degrees of recipients' satisfaction. This study uses the data based on the responses of 490 recipients selected randomly from 22 home care centers. The results show that recipients have higher frequencies in age of 60+, disabled status, difficulty with ADL, IADL items, no family, and lowest class. And the type of services offered by home care centers have highest frequencies in home maker services. Recipients' attitude toward home care services is "helpful," but they are not satisfied with the frequency of visit. The study found that disabled status, difficulty with ADL, IADL, health services, and home maker services are negatively related with degrees of recipients' satisfaction. Based on the findings, the study would conclude that home care policy should be recipients' need-based, developing systematic: need assessment tool. Expanded home health caring must be required for the disabled elderly.
