The purpose of this study is to find out how voice recognition technology can be utilized to solve the elderly problem rapidly aging in Korea. Public support services and civilian nursing services for the elderly are expected to expand in Korea. In this case, voice recognition technology can be used variously for the elderly who are not familiar with the media interface. To this end, our researchers visited Japan and examined the achievements obtained by voice recognition technology in the elderly care. Especially, when caregivers write reports, they have greatly reduced their working hours by replacing the handwritten reports with ones using voice recognition technology. This method can be easily implemented in Korea. In addition, the social cost of the elderly support can be gradually reduced through the development of a robot equipped with voice recognition technology. Consequently, we realize that when voice recognition technology is combined with artificial intelligence programs of various emotion recognition functions and various policy possibilities as well.

In this paper, we propose a system to monitor the condition of elderly people who are uncomfortable by using smart-phone and biometric sensor at any time and for care-givers to provide with the best medical service anytime and anywhere. The proposed system monitors the status of the elderly through various bionic sensors installed in the hospital ward based on the Arduino system and not only provides the physiological and medical services required by the elderly, but also informs the guardian so that he can cope with the emergency. In conclusion, this paper suggests that a reading light used by elderly people can operate as a home server with a biosensor using Arduino and Android applications (Apps.), and the smart-phone of care-givers is configured as a remote management and a emergency call system. Therefore, this study suggests important ways to improve the satisfaction of medical service for the both elderly people and care-givers of chronic diseases in the future.

Purpose: The research looks at differences between the 'General ward' and the 'Comprehensive nursing ward' in Seoul Medical Center, regarding the facility improvements and changes in nursing services. It investigates and analyzes spatial problems and improvement needs through a survey and conduct investigation of staffs. It is to propose the primary data for the architectural planning of the future ward with the comprehensive nursing service. Methods: Targeting the comprehensive nursing ward, changes of the physical environment and spatial problems are analyzed through a field survey, behavior investigation, present-condition investigation, and floor plan analysis. Results: The workforce is increased by approximately twice the amount of the nursing staffs in the comprehensive nursing ward, compared to the pre-general ward. When utilizing the general ward, various spatial problems arise due to the restrictions of the facility condition. Because Sub N.S is an important facility as a part of the nursing work function in the ward of the comprehensive nursing service, the opinions of staffs must be considered when selecting a location and composing a space.
