Abstract

The purpose of this study was to verify the factors influencing the happiness index for elderly patients hospitalized in nursing hospitals with a structural model. A survey was conducted on 237 people in 6 nursing hospitals in G city from July 1 to August 15, 2018, and analyzed with SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 18.0 programs. As a result of the research, the direct effect on the happiness index is the greatest factor, Next, perceived health status, economic status, and nursing satisfaction are in order, and the explanatory power is 66%. Both direct and indirect economic conditions were found to have a significant effect, and hospitalization period only had indirect effects through helplessness and nursing satisfaction. Therefore, development and application of various programs that can reduce the feeling of helplessness and improve the perceived health status. It is believed that an integrated management system, such as support system support and nursing intervention, suitable for each individual situation is needed.

본 연구의 목적은 요양병원 입원노인환자를 대상으로 행복지수의 영향요인을 구조모형으로 검증하고자 시도되었다. 연구방법은 G시 6개 요양병원 237명을 대상으로 2018년 7월 1일부터 8월 15일까지 설문조사 하였으며 SPSS 18.0과 AMOS 18.0 프로그램으로 분석하였다. 연구결과 행복지수에 영향을 미치는 변수들의 직접효과는 무력감이 가장 큰 요인으로 나타났으며, 그 다음 인지된 건강상태, 경제상태, 간호만족도 순으로 나타났고 이들 변인들은 행복지수를 66% 설명하였다. 경제상태는 무력감, 간호만족도, 인지된 건강상태를 통해 행복지수에 간접효과가 있는 것으로 나타나 직접, 간접 모두 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 입원기간은 무력감과 간호만족도를 통한 간접효과만 있은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 무력감을 줄이고 인지된 건강상태를 향상시킬 수 있는 다양한 프로그램 개발과 적용, 개인별 상황에 맞는 지지체계 지원 및 간호중재 제공 등 통합적인 관리체계가 필요하리라 생각된다.
