초록

본 연구에서는 의료기관에서 안경사 인력부족의 원인을 조사하고, 해결방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 의료기관에 근무 중인 안경사 31명(남자 11명, 여자 20명)를 대상으로 자기기입법 설문조사를 통해 진행하였다. 설문조사를 통해 대상자의 기본적인 정보와 근무 중인 의료기관에 대한 정보와 만족도 등에 대해 조사 분석하였다. 안경사 면허를 가지고 있지만 검안업무를 전혀 하지 않는 인력들이 9.7%나 되었다. 또한 기혼자일수록 근무에 대한 만족도가 떨어지고, 고유 업무인 검안업무를 않는 비율도 높아진다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 문제들의 원인은 급여에서 찾을 수 있었다. 이는 안경사들이 결혼 등의 이유로 높은 급여를 위해 본인의 고유 영역의 업무 외에 다른 업무를 더 함으로써 급여를 높일 수 있었던 것이다. 이렇게 의료기관에서의 만족스럽지 못한 급여는 안경사의 고유 업무에서 멀어지게 하거나 이직이 이루어지게 되면서 안과의원에서의 안경사의 부족 현상이 발생하게 된 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze, medical institutions wanted to investigate what caused the shortage of opticians' manpower and suggest solutions. This study was conducted on 31 opticians (11 male and 20 female) working at medical institutions through a self-reporting method survey. Through the survey, basic information of the subjects and the information and satisfaction level of the medical institution on duty were investigated and analyzed. There were many people who had a license for optometrist but did not do optometrist work, and the married people were less satisfied with their work and the proportion of people who did not do optometrist work was higher. The cause of these problems was salary. Opticians who needed higher salaries for marriage and other reasons were able to increase their salaries by adding other tasks in their own areas. This unsatisfactory salary at medical institutions has led to a shortage of optometrists at ophthalmic clinics.
