The subjects of this study were 70 households with cognitive impairment and dementia among residents of dementia care village in Gunsan City. The survey was conducted with the permission of their family. Frequency analysis and descriptive statistical analysis were performed on the main variables to analyze the characteristics of the subjects. Bivariate correlation analysis was performed to verify the relationship between the two variables. According to the analysis results, the order of environment improvement was in the order of entrance (51.4%), toilet and stairs (48.6%), kitchen (11.4%), bedroom and laundry room (10.0%). In the relationship between the variables, The ADL was correlated with age (r=.315, p <.01), BPSD (r=.322, p<.01) and living environment inconvenience (r=.640, p<.01) while, living environment inconvenience correlated with environment improvement need (r=.669, p<.01).

본 연구는 치매안심센터 기능에 대한 작업치료 전공 학생들의 인식 수준과 일반적 특성에 따른 인식 수준의 차이에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 2019년 9월부터 12월까지 작업치료 전공 학생들을 대상으로 치매안심센터의 7개 사업유형별 기능에 대한 인식 수준에 대해 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 치매안심센터의 7개 사업유형 중 상담 및 등록관리사업에 대한 인식 수준이 가장 높았다. 작업치료 전공 학생들의 일반적 특성 중 연령에 따라 7개의 치매안심센터 사업유형 모두 인식 수준의 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 학년의 경우, 방문형 모델을 제외한 6개의 치매안심센터 사업유형에 대한 인식 수준에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 지역은 치매환자 쉼터 운영사업과 치매가족 지원사업에 대한 인식 수준에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 또한, 치매안심센터 이용경험 유무에 따라 치매안심마을 운영에 대한 인식 수준의 유의한 차이가 나타났으며, 치매안심센터 임상실습 경험 여부에 따라 상담 및 등록관리사업, 치매가족 지원사업, 치매안심마을 운영에 대한 인식 수준에 유의한 차이가 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 지역사회 작업치료 분야의 연구를 위한 기초자료를 제공하고 작업치료 전공 관련 교육기반 마련에 도움이 되었으면 한다.
