본 연구는 2018년 보건복지부에서 발표한 「독거노인 종합지원대책」을 중심으로 독거노인에 대한 제도적 지원의 문제점 및 해결방안에 관하여 연구하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 맞춤형 독거노인 지원제도를 도입해야 한다. 독거노인의 생활만족도 향상을 위해 가장 기본적인 일상생활 관련 욕구에 맞는 프로그램 개발이 필요하며, 서비스를 연계할 구체적인 방안과 지원체계가 마련되어야 한다. 둘째, 독거노인에 대한 사회적 관심도 증대가 필요하다. 독거노인에 대한 문제해결은 독거노인에 대한 사회적 관심도가 선행되어야 한다. 이를 위해서는 사회적 관계망의 강화가 필요하다. 셋째, 독거노인을 위한 법률 제·개정을 제안한다. 기존 법률의 일부 개정만으로는 한계가 있고, 다양한 노인일자리 유형에 대한 기준과 정의, 노인일자리 사업 전담기관을 포함한 전달체계에 대한 재정비, 근로자성 관련 규정, 노인생산품 우선구매제도 등 개별 법률 제정을 통하여 해결하는 것이 바람직하다. 결론적으로 독거노인에 대한 복지지원은 종합적이고 포괄적이어야 한다. 독거노인의 복지는 우선적으로 맞춤형 돌봄서비스가 시행되어야 하며, 사회적 관심도의 증대를 토대로 해서 독거노인에 대한 사회적 지지를 향시키고, 독거노인을 위해 법제·개정이 능동적이고 선제적으로 이루어져야 한다.

이 연구는 2017년부터 고령사회에 진입한 우리나라의 국내 노인복지시설, 특히 경로당이 어떠한 서비스를 제공하고 있는지 알아보고 차후 발전 방향을 제시하였다. 발전 방향 제시를 위해서 독일, 스웨덴, 일본, 3곳의 사례를 조사하였고 12명의 고령층을 대상으로 심층인터뷰를 진행하였다. 심층인터뷰와 사례조사에 따르면 첫째, 많은 프로그램으로 사람들이 많이 참여할 수 있도록 하는 것, 둘째, 경로당이 결코 나이가 많은 노인들만 이용하는 곳이 아니라는 분위기로 만들어야 한다는 것, 셋째, 노인들이 스스로 사회에 참여하고 자립할 수 있도록 프로그램을 제공하는 것이 중요하다. 현재 경로당은 지역별로 다른 프로그램을 적용하고 있어 어떤 방식으로 프로그램이 진행되는지 알지 못했다는 점이 이 연구의 한계점이다. 향후 연구에서는 국내의 경로당 사례를 조사하여 국내의 특성에 맞고 지역 차이 없이 공통으로 진행될 수 있는 프로그램의 구체적인 제안이 필요하다.

Purpose. The elderly with UI experienced urine leakage for a long time. The prevalence of UI has increased and it makes costly. Particularly, the elderly were reluctant to visit a hospital or a clinic for the reasons of modesty and poverty. To solve this problem, incontinence intervention programs should be provided at the elderly welfare center. The purpose of this research was to develop Incontinence Intervention Program for the Elderly Women (IIPE) and evaluate in its effect. Methods. The study design was quasi-experimental with pre and post-test. The study was performed for ten weeks at one elderly welfare center, Seoul, Korea. The subjects were gathered through an official announcement and informed consent was obtained. IIPE, in this study, was consisted of diagnosis, education, exercise and evaluation. The study variables were PFM exercise adherence, pelvic muscle strength, Continence self-efficacy, geriatric depression and incontinence stress. The effects of the IIPE on PFM exercise adherence, pelvic muscle strength, Continence self-efficacy, geriatric depression and incontinence stress were also evaluated. Results. The mean age of the subjects was 75.2 years. The average attendance was 6.2 times. The IIPE improved PFM exercise adherence, intra-vaginal contraction power and CSE significantly. But it was not significant in incontinence stress and geriatric depression. Other important results were that the two-finger test and urine stream interruption were more useful for elderly women with rigid vaginas in teaching and evaluating. Conclusion. The Findings suggest that IIPE is effective to the community-residing elderly. Further investigation is needed on a long-term basis with control group.

In Japan, a lot of elderly housing types have been developed in order to meet various needs of the older person and the change of social situations. Elderly housings can be divided into three categories elderly housings for healthy older persons, elderly care homes for the healthy and elderly care facilities for the unhealthy. Elderly housings include public and private rental housings. Sometimes they can be designated only for the elderly. Elderly care homes for the healthy elderly include full fee charging elderly housing, elderly homes, low fee charging elderly homes and care houses. Elderly care facilities for the unhealthy elderly consist of full fee charging elderly care homes, group homes for the dementia, elderly health facilities, nursing homes, elderly hospitals, and so on. However "elderly care facilities" have been proved not to be efficient for the delivery of elderly welfare services nor satisfactory to the frail older person. Therefore, based on the concept of the "Normalization", daily services have been provided for the elderly in order that they can live at their own home in the community for themselves. As a result, Japan aims not only to reduce elderly welfare expenses but also to increase elderly users' satisfaction. Emphasis on non-institutionalization and in-home services, regional characterization, harmony between Hard and Soft, user oriented services, substantiality, universal design and so on are sought for the sake of those goals.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the economic and social impact of the SEP in which the elderly participate by using the blended return on investment (BROI), economic return on investment (EROI), and social return on investment (SROI) research methods. And the sustainable conditions of SEP were confirmed. This study was conducted with one market-type SEP approved by the Korea Elderly Labor Force Development Institute (KLFDI), one preliminary social enterprise approved by Changwon City Hall, and one market-type SEP operated by a social welfare center for the elderly. As a result of the study, it was found that EROI, SROI, and BROI were the highest in the SEP of preliminary social enterprises operated by subsidies in Changwon.However, the difference between EROI and SROI was greatest in the market-type SEP operated by the elderly social welfare center. There was a big difference between economic and social impacts. The social influence of the elderly was evaluated to be higher than the income of the elderly.
