우리나라는 경제발전과 보건의료의 발달로 인한 평균수명의 연장과 저출산 등으로 세계에서 가장 급속도로 인구구조의 고령화 문제에 직면하고 있다. 정부는 이러한 사회적 구조 및 노인문제를 해결하기 위하여 장기요양대상 노인의 삶의 질 향상과 가족부양 부담의 완화 등을 목적으로 노인장기요양보험법을 제정 시행 중에 있다. 하지만, 노인장기요양보험제도의 시행결과, 시설의 민영화와 난립으로 서비스의 공적 책임과 시설의 질 제고에 대한 요청이 확산되고 있다. 이 밖에, 저임금 요양인력의 양산, 질 개선에 관한 과제, 재원조달 방식에 관한 문제, 등의 대비가 다각도로 필요하다. 이에 노인장기요양보험제도가 장기 지속적으로 유지 발전하기 위해서는 시대적인 사회환경의 변화에 따라 법 제도적 측면의 개선방안의 모색과 더불어 노인복지서비스가 신체적 건강뿐만 아니라 노후 생활의 안정을 위한 정신적 심리적 조치를 강구하는 방안을 검토한다.

본 논문은 노인장기요양보험 인지도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 알아보고 연령집단에 따른 차이점을 분석하고자 한 탐색적 연구이다. 이를 위해 연구대상을 45세에서 64세 이상의 중장년 집단과 65세 이상의 노인 집단으로 구분하여, 인구사회학적 특징, 조사자의 사회관계망 요인, 건강요인이 노인장기요양보험 인지도에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 하였으며, 고령화연구패널조사의 6차 조사자료를 토대로 2차자료 분석을 하였다. 연구결과를 보면, 45-64세 중장년 집단의 경우 성별, 자원봉사활동, ADL, IADL, 우울이 인지도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 반면에 65세이상 노인 집단에서는 나이와 우울 외에 종교모임, 친목목임, 여가활동, 동창회모임, 자원봉사활동, NGO활동과 같은 사회관계망 관련 요인들이 노인장기요양보험의 인지도에 영향을 주었다. 연구결과를 토대로 노인장기요양보험 인지도 향상방안에 대한 정책적 함의를 제시하였다.

본 연구는 졸업 학년 간호대학생의 노인장기요양 분야 취업의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 조사하기 위하여 시도하였다. 연구분석은 SPSS program을 이용하여 t-test, ANOVA, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 졸업 학년 간호대학생의 노인장기요양기관 취업의도는 평균 2.8점이었고, 간호대학생의 노인장기요양 분야 취업의도는 노인과 살았던 경험유무, 노인문제에 대한 관심의 정도, 가족 중에 노인장기요양보험 혜택을 받은 경우, 장기요양보험제도의 관심의 정도에 따라 차이가 있었다. 노인장기요양기관 취업의도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 평소 노인문제에 대한 관심과 가족 중 노인장기요양보험 수혜 여부로 분석되었다. 따라서 향후 간호대학생의 노인장기요양 분야 취업을 유도하기 위해서는 노인과의 상호작용 및 접촉을 통해 노인문제에 대한 관심을 증대시키는 한편 노인장기요양제도에 대한 관심을 높일 수 있는 다양한 교과 및 비교과 융합 프로그램의 운영이 요구된다.

목적 본 연구의 목적은 텍스트 마이닝이라는 빅데이터 분석 기법 중 하나를 활용하여 노인장기요양보험에서 작업치료의 역할을 정량적으로 분석하는 것이다. 연구방법 신문기사 분석을 위해 2007~208년까지 기간 설정 후 "노인장기요양보험+작업치료"를 주제어로 수집하였다. Textom이라는 웹 크롤링(Web Crawling)을 활용해 국내 검색엔진 네이버에서 <네이버뉴스>의 데이터베이스를 활용하였다. 수집결과 노인장기요양보험+작업치료 검색에서 510편의 뉴스 데이터의 기사제목과 원문을 수집한 후 연도별 기사 빈도, 핵심어분석을 시행하였다. 연구결과 연도별 기사 발행 빈도를 살펴보면 2015년과 2017년 발행한 기사 수가 70편(13.7%)으로 가장 많았고, 핵심어 분석 상위 10개의 용어는 '치매'(344)가 가장 많았으며, 작업과 핵심어의 관례를 알아보면, 치매, 치료, 병원, 건강, 서비스, 재활, 시설, 제도, 등급, 어르신, 전문, 급여, 공단, 국민이 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 결론 본 연구에서는 텍스트 마이닝 기법을 통해 11년간의 노인장기요양보험의 언론 보도 동향을 토대로 관련 핵심 키워드에서 치매와 재활에 대해 사회적 요구와 작업치료사의 역할을 보다 객관적으로 확인하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 다음 연구에서는 연도에 따른 다양한 분석방법을 통해 연구방법론을 보완하여야 할 것이다.
