This study started from the public interest purpose to help accessibility for the information acquisition of the vulnerable groups due to visual difficulties such as the elderly and the visually impaired. In this study, the server resources are minimized and implemented in most of the user smart phones. In addition, we implement a method to gather necessary information by collecting only pattern information by utilizing crawl & clipping without having to visit the site of the information of the various sites having the data necessary for the user, and to have it in the server. Especially, we applied the TTS(Text-To-Speech) service composed of smart phone apps and tried to develop a unified customized information collection service based on voice-based information collection method.

본 연구는 노인학대의 새로운 유형화를 통해 노인학대의 중복적 특성을 간명화하여 노인학대에 대한 이해를 돕고, 노인학대의 유형별 결정요인 분석을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 전국노인보호전문기관의 81명의 상담가가 조사일자를 기점으로 최근 종결한 5개 사례에 대해서 주어진 노인학대 판정지표 및 사정도구에 회고적으로 응답하는 설문조사방법을 활용하였으며, 조사결과 350명의 노인학대 사례에 대해 통계분석을 실시하였다. 분석방법은 17개의 노인학대 판정지표를 활용한 군집분석을 통해 노인학대를 유형화하고, 유형화결과에 따라 logit-regression을 활용하여 유형결정요인을 분석하였다. 연구결과 노인학대는 '폭력성 노인학대'와 '회피성 노인학대'로 유형화되었다. 폭력성 노인학대는 직접적으로 폭력을 행하거나, 거친행위로 노인을 위협하거나 협박하는 행위, 노인을 무시하는 언어적 표현과 행동과 같이 직접적으로 노인에게 해를 가하는 언행이 나타나는 유형이며, 회피성 노인학대는 방임, 유기, 자기방임과 노인과의 접촉을 기피하는 유형으로 구분되었다. 폭력성 노인학대와 회피성 노인학대의 유형 결정요인 분석결과, 피학대노인의 기능상태와 학력, 가해자의 성별과 학력, 가해자가 느끼는 피해자에 대한 수발부담, 가해자와 피해자의 동거여부가 노인학대 유형 결정에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 피해노인의 학력이 높을수록 폭력성 노인학대 발생율이 높으며, 기능상태(IADL)가 나쁠수록 회피성 노인학대 발생율이 높게 나타났다. 또한 가해자가 여성일수록 회피성 노인학대 발생율이 높으며, 가해자의 학력이 높을수록 폭력성 학대 발생율이 높게 나타났다. 가해자가 노인의 수발부담이 높다고 느낄수록 폭력성 노인학대가 높게 나타났으며, 동거는 회피성 노인학대보다는 폭력성 노인학대의 발생율을 높이는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 노인학대의 복잡성을 간명하게 이해할 수 있도록 하는 새로운 노인학대의 유형화를 시도하였으며, 노인학대의 유형 결정요인을 밝힘으로써 추후 노인학대 개입기법을 세분화하고 노인학대 발생원인 이론개발의 기초자료로서의 의미를 갖는다.

The purpose of this study is to identify the acoustic changes according to age and to provide the evaluation criteria of elderly voice. The number of 120 Korean adults (three age groups * two sex groups) proceeded sustained three vowels, read apart of 'Taking a walk' and explained a picture. The data was analyzed acoustically with MDVP of CSL. The results showed that: 1)there was statistically most significant changes in sex and age in F0 than the others but no significant in Shimmer. 2)acoustic parameters were changed from young adulthood to old age. Different patterns of change with aging were observed in men and women.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the necessity of home visit rehabilitation therapy by rehabilitation professionals working at social welfare facilities. Methods: The subjects of this study were 227 rehabilitation professionals (social worker, nurse, physical therapist, occupational therapist, speech-language therapist, special education teacher, and staff of institutions for the disabled who were working at community rehabilitation centers. The data were collected over 65 days (2008. 09. 10~11. 14). The results were analysed statistically by the Chi-square test. Results: The results are as follows: Long-term care service was established in Korea by the Ministry of Health in July, 2008. But there are limits to their being able to provide various rehabilitation services for chronic patients and old people. According to a recent survey, almost all rehabilitation professionals (N=227) stated that home visit rehabilitation therapy is necessary. Conclusion: In Korea, the long-term care service has a nursing service and a service supporting physical activities of daily living, but not physical therapy. So, home visit rehabilitation services should include physical therapy, rehabilitation exercise, and pain management.

It is important for nurses to try to improve their interpersonal relationship and communication skill. The purpose of this study was to examine the nurse's inerpersonal conflict and expression with physicians, other nurses and patients & their caregivers. A convenient sample of 62 RN-BSN students were recruited. The data collection was done from August, 2001 to September, 2001. Nurses experienced the most conflicts with high-positioned nurses, then doctors, patients and their families, administrators, nurse-aid, nurse colleagues and lower-positioned nurses. There was a significant correlation between nurse's interpersonal conflict with doctors and nurse's age & career, between with high-positioned nurses and region of hospitals & nurse's position. The expression that nurses least-like from physicians was 'Do it as order'. From other nurses was 'manner of speech such like order'. And from patients and their family was 'naming such like young lady or sisters'. The other side, the expression that nurses most like expression from physicians and ohter nurses was 'You are excellent'. From patients and their family was 'You are kindness'. In conclusion, it is necessary to improve nurse's communication skills and interpersonal relationships.

The purpose of this study was to understand the adult day care as a place for the elders and adults and to develop an initial understanding of the programs and their participants for adult day care for the cognitively-impaired in the U.S.A. The data was collected from 13 Adult Day Care Centers(ADC), and 318 participants from six Adult Day Care Centers from 2001 to 2002 by personal interview and the documents about the participants and their family and caregivers. Participants used ADC program average 8.15 hours In weekdays, 3 days per week. ADC programs provided primarily lunch and snack, transportation, personal care, professional health care, occupational.speech physical therapies, rehabilitation, and respite care. Participants'caregivers were mainly daughters and wives. It is the hope of this study to provide design and care professionals with a first draft of a ″sense-making″template by which they may understand adult day care in a systemic manner and engage in meaningful results as to what this place type could and should be.

In this study, we explored the potential of integrating interactive AI callbot technology into the medical consultation domain as part of a broader service development initiative. Aimed at enhancing patient satisfaction, the AI callbot was designed to efficiently address queries from hospitals' primary users, especially the elderly and those using phone services. By incorporating an AI-driven callbot into the hospital's customer service center, routine tasks such as appointment modifications and cancellations were efficiently managed by the AI Callbot Agent. On the other hand, tasks requiring more detailed attention or specialization were addressed by Human Agents, ensuring a balanced and collaborative approach. The deep learning model for voice recognition for this study was based on the Transformer model and fine-tuned to fit the medical field using a pre-trained model. Existing recording files were converted into learning data to perform SSL(self-supervised learning) Model was implemented. The ANN (Artificial neural network) neural network model was used to analyze voice signals and interpret them as text, and after actual application, the intent was enriched through reinforcement learning to continuously improve accuracy. In the case of TTS(Text To Speech), the Transformer model was applied to Text Analysis, Acoustic model, and Vocoder, and Google's Natural Language API was applied to recognize intent. As the research progresses, there are challenges to solve, such as interconnection issues between various EMR providers, problems with doctor's time slots, problems with two or more hospital appointments, and problems with patient use. However, there are specialized problems that are easy to make reservations. Implementation of the callbot service in hospitals appears to be applicable immediately.
