치과보조인력 정책의 현황을 확인하기 위하여 치과보조인력 공급 현황, 지역별 분포, 법적 업무, 근무환경 등의 측면에서 관련 선행문헌고찰 및 자료수집 및 분석을 실시하고, 관련요인을 고찰함으로써 우리나라 정책의 문제점을 도출하고자 하였다. 치과위생사 수의 급격한 양적 증가가 있었음에도 불구하고, 활동 수는 전체의 절반에도 미치지 못하고, 치과계는 여전히 치과위생사 인력난을 경험하고 있다. 치과위생사의 수행업무를 고려했을 때 치과진료보조 업무 수행을 위한 전문적 치과보조인력의 활용이 제한적이다. 또한, 대도시를 중심으로 치과위생사 분포가 편중되고, 치과위생사로만 구성된 치과의료기관 비율이 높기 때문에 지역별 치과보조인력 분포의 불균형을 해결하기 위한 방안 마련이 필요하다. 수행 업무 중 많은 비중이 의료기사법에 구체적으로 명시된 사항이 아니므로 해당행위의 적법성을 판단하는 기준이 모호하다. 치과위생사의 직업수명, 업무 효율성, 직업전문성 및 만족도가 감소함에 따라 직무소진이 빠르게 나타나고 있다. 치과위생사의 법적 업무와 실제 수행하는 업무와의 괴리, 직역 간 갈등의 심화는 정부 차원에서의 치과의료인력의 활용 계획과 방안이 부재하기 때문인 것으로 검토된다. 이에 대해 정부에서는 치과의료서비스 수요에 따라 치과위생사 인력의 역할을 정립하고, 필요 정책을 제도화하며, 인력을 적절하게 활용하기 위한 계획을 수립하기 위한 노력을 해야 한다.

본 연구는 구조방정식을 통하여 학생들의 치과 위생사에 대한 이미지와 취업 인식을 파악하고 온라인 정보에 대한 인식을 접목해 차후 치과위생사 보건인력 확보에 필요한 정보를 마련하고자 한다. 수집된 자료는 통계는 SPSS Statistics 24.0 와 AMOS Graphics 21.0 통계 패키지를 이용하여 자료 분석을 시행하였다. 취업을 긍정적으로 인식하는 사람은 신종 감염병이 발생해도 치과위생사의 이미지를 긍정적으로 보고, 치과위생사의 부정적 이미지를 통해 부정적 취업 인식을 이해하는 것으로 나타났다. 인터넷 정보를 긍정적으로 생각하는 사람은 인터넷 정보가 거짓 정보가 많고, 유해하며, 불안을 조장한다고 생각하고, 그 영향은 취업에 대한 부정적 인식에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 인터넷 정보를 긍정적으로 생각하는 사람은 치과위생사가 감염에 노출되기 쉽고, 감염원을 전달 할 수 있으며, 쉽게 감염될 수 있다고 생각하고, 이는 부정적 취업에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 신종 감염병 시기에는 올바른 인터넷 정보의 인식을 통하여 치과위생사의 이미지 형성을 하는 것이 중요하다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze and compare dental hygine curriculum of three countries--Korea, U.S.A., and Japan--, focusing on the ways of organizing content. In this study, 30 curriculum documents of dental hygienist in U.S., Japan, and Korea were analyzed and discussed by a framework of analysis which was constructed referring to Tylerian curriculum model. Using this framework, three kinds of key components of curriculum document were compared according to specific elements of each component. More specifically, comparing those curriculum documents, we must consider the dimension of content organization. In this study, the problem of course organization was viewed on three dimensions: continuity, sequence, and integration of curriculum content. Based on the results of this study, the conclusions are as follows. 1. Courses of dental hygienist education should be organized so that the curriculum foster the cumulative and continuous learning. It will be accomplished by considering the essential procedures or sequence of dental hygiene activities. 2. When organizing curriculum elements, we should consider the continuity dimension of learning content. Continuity deals with the vertical manipulation or repetition of curriculum components. In other words, it accounts for the reappearance in the curriculum of certain major ideas or skills. Therefore, courses should be based on the level of the dental hygienist activities in order to ensure a continuity of learning experiences. 3. Dental hygienist curriculum must be organized in a way to integrate the logic of dental hygiene as a discipline with the process of dental hygiene performance. Integration refers to the linking of all types of knowledge and experiences contained within the curriculum design. It emphasizes horizontal relations among various content topics and themes involving all domains of knowledge recognized. Thus, courses of dental hygiene curriculum should be integrated to allow college students to obtain a unified view of knowledge and an in-depth meaning of the dental hygiene as a profession.

본 연구는 감정노동이 자아존중감을 매개로 직무스트레스에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 실시하였다. 연구 대상은 편의 추출된 임상치과위생사 205명을 대상으로 하였으며 자료는 구조화된 설문지를 통해 2016년 1월 3일부터 1월 30일까지 수집하였다. 분석결과 감정노동은 자아존중감과 부적 상관을 가지고 있으며, 직무스트레스와는 정적 상관을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 자아존중감은 직무스트레스와 부적상관을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 감정노동이 직무스트레스의 하위요인중 관계갈등과 직무불안정, 직장문화에서의 스트레스를 증가시키는 직접효과와 자아존중감을 낮추고, 낮아진 자아존중감이 다시 직무스트레스를 증가시키는 간접효과를 동시에 가짐을 확인할 수 있었으며 임상 치과위생사들에게 감정노동의 대처방안 및 자아존중감을 높일 수 있는 교육을 통하여 감정노동 수준 관리와 병원차원에서의 융합적 노력이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
