  • 주거 공간에 건강관리에 필요한 서비스가 제공되는 것은 'aging in place'의 실현을 가속화할 것이다. 그리고 이러한 주거공간의 변화는 의료비를 절감하고 삶의 질을 향상하는 복지 측면에서도 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 고령자가 스스로 건강을 관리할 수 있도록 헬스케어 서비스(Healthcare service)를 아파트 단지 내에 적용하는 계획방안에 대해 도출하고 주거복지동의 첫 사업 대상지인 가양 7단지 영구임대주택 단지를 중심으로 내용을 전개하고자 한다. 먼저 거주자의 헬스케어 서비스 이용의향에 대해 조사하고 관심이 높은 응답자를 중심으로 실제 시범사업이 적용된 서비스의 사용모습 관찰 및 심층 인터뷰를 통해 추후 계획시 고려할 사항에 대해 도출하였다. 가양 7단지의 경우 유헬스케어 서비스에 대한 요구는 고령자보다는 고령자 진입층에서 더 강력하게 나타나지만 공통적으로 주호의 협소함으로 기기 설치 및 측정에 어려움을 느끼고 있었다. 관찰조사 결과 주호는 사용자세의 불편함으로 입식구조의 측정공간 계획이 필요하며 장비보관장소도 필요하다. 그리고 헬스케어 서비스를 위한 프로그램은 건강측정, 건강관리, 외부 시설과 연계된 시설로 나눠 계획할 수 있으며, 이는 건강측정 공간을 기본형, 즉 최소형으로 하여 점차 확대 적용할 수 있다. 가양 7단지의 경우, 별도의 복지 건물이 신축되므로 기능을 복합적으로 구성하는 혼합형의 프로그램을 적용할 수 있으며, 반자립 사용자에 대한 서비스까지 확대 적용하는 계획이 필요하다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the depression and cognitive function of community-dwelling older adults. Methods: 243 aged over 65 in Won-Ju in South Korea participated in this study. Data were collected from April to June 2013 through interviews. This study utilized the Geriatric Depression Scale Short Form, the Korean version of MMSE-DS (MMSE for Dementia Screening), and infirmity testing for basic health status. Descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2$, t-test, ANOVA, $Scheff{\acute{e}}^{\prime}s$ test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient were used. Results: 75.3% of the participants belonged to the depression group, and the prevalence of cognitive impairment was 17.3%. There were significant differences in depression and cognitive function according to gender, educational level, type of insurance, subjective health, frailty, and whether to be a client of home care service. The level of depression was significantly higher and the level of cognitive functions was significantly lower in older adults in home care services than in community-dwelling older adults. Conclusion: This study is meaningful in that it included older adults in home care services to provide information to develop effective prevention programs for improving cognitive functions. The results of this study can be used to develop future community prevention and intervention.

  • Background: Industrial accidents can determine the overall level and quality of the work environment in industries and companies that contribute to national economic development. Korea has transformed the country from an international aid recipient to a donor country, but it has ranked first among the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development member countries in the number of fatal industrial accidents. Little has been known about the policy effects in terms of the workers' insurance for their industrial accidents and rehabilitation. This study raises two research questions about the influence of workers' personal characteristics and vocational rehabilitation services on their return to workplaces. Methods: The study implements weighted logistic regression analysis using propensity score matching. This research utilizes the relevant dataset (3,924 persons) of Korea's industrial accident and insurance. Results: The findings show that the level of workers' awareness of health recovery and their counseling for rehabilitation by physicians had positive effects on their return to work. Environmental factors such as workers' job stability at the time of industrial accidents and the temporal effects of industrial accidents (e.g., the level of disability, their age) had negative impacts on their return to work. Conclusions: These findings have policy implications that the concentration of rehabilitation services for patients who have been mildly affected by industrial accidents would be effective in the short and medium term. The findings also highlight the necessity of ongoing policies about workers' vocational recovery with concrete evidence about policy impacts.

  • 정보통신기술의 발전과 일상 중심으로의 의료서비스 변화는 스마트폰 건강관리 앱(mHealth) 활용을 통한 자가관리 시대를 열었다. mHealth는 이용자의 건강 자가관리에 도움을 주며 서비스 제공자의 주요 수익원이므로 mHealth 이용 요인을 이해하는 것은 중요하다. 그러나 mHealth의 주요 이용자가 될 수 있는 당뇨병 노인을 대상으로 이용 요인을 규명한 연구는 제한적으로 이루어졌다. 따라서 본 연구는 당뇨병 노인의 mHealth 이용에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 구체적으로 당뇨병 노인의 주관적 건강상태와 e헬스리터러시가 mHealth 이용에 미치는 영향이 사회적 지지 수준에 따라 어떻게 달라지는지 살펴보는 것에 초점을 두었다. 65세 이상 당뇨병 노인 252명을 대상으로 한 온/오프라인 설문조사를 통해 자료를 수집했으며, 주관적 건강상태 및 e헬스리터러시와 사회적 지지의 상호작용항을 투입하는 위계적 다중회귀분석을 실시하여 조절효과를 검증하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 당뇨병 노인이 남성, 저연령일수록 mHealth 이용이 높았다. 둘째, 당뇨병 노인의 e헬스리터러시가 높을수록 mHealth 이용이 높았다. 셋째, 주관적 건강상태와 mHealth의 관계에서 사회적 지지의 완충효과가 나타났다. 이는 사회적 지지가 높을수록 주관적 건강상태가 mHealth에 미치는 긍정적 영향이 완화되는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구는 mHealth 이용에 관한 정보시스템 및 의료 분야의 지식에 기여하는 한편, mHealth 서비스 제공자의 고객 확보 전략 수립, 정부와 의료진의 당뇨병 노인의 mHealth이용을 통한 자가관리 증진 방안 마련에 유용한 실무적 시사점을 제공할 것으로 기대된다. 나아가 mHealth 이용 활성화를 통한 당뇨병 노인이 삶의 질 개선 및 디지털 포용 사회 구축에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify nutrition quotient for elderly (NQ-E) and to investigate factors affecting NQ-E of the elderly using welfare center and senior citizen's center in Changwon city. A self-administered questionnaire was conducted between June 2021 and early August 2021 for 320 elderly (≥65 years, male, n=52, female, n=268). As a result of the survey, the mean NQ-E score was 61.12, which was within the medium-high grade. The scores of balance, moderation, and dietary behavior factors were within the medium-high grade, while diversity factor was within the medium-low grade. According to the results of the Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis, NQ-E showed positive correlations with the 'with family' (p<0.01), 'education level' (p<0.01), 'health functional foods consumption' (p<0.01), 'monthly household income' (p<0.05), 'nutrition education experience' (p<0.05), 'reading nutrition labeling of health functional foods' (p<0.01), 'perception of the efficacy of health functional foods' (p<0.01), and 'the number of times of leisure activities per week' (p<0.01) and negative correlations with the 'gender' (p<0.05), 'age' (p<0.01), 'smoking' (p<0.05), and 'social frailty' (p<0.01). As a result of multiple regression analysis, 'gender' (p<0.05), 'perception of the efficacy of health functional foods' (p<0.05), 'the number of times of leisure activities per week' (p<0.05), and 'social frailty' (p<0.05) were found to be factors affecting NQ-E. Based on the results of this study, customized services by characteristic, nutrition education, and counseling for the elderly should be implemented and the development of various programs and continuous support of the community are necessary so that the elderly can carry out social exchange.

  • Despite of the vibrant nature of the fitness industry, there has not been a sustained effort to understand the dynamics of the industry, particularly with reference to the quality of services offered in that industry. The purpose of this paper is to present a system based process model of quality in health/fitness services. The characteristics of the organization, the service employees and the client are the inputs into the service encounter where the service is produced (i.e., the throughput). The output is the quality of the service. The extent of quality perceived by both the service provider and the client is said to influence the satisfaction of the respective parties, and subsequent motivation to participate in the production of quality in the service. The model also suggests that physical environment as well as other customers and their behaviors influence customer perception of service quality. The quality of service is enhanced through the quality assurance practices of the organization and the feedback from client. Further, the input, throughput, and output in our model reflect (a) quality of the design of the service delivery system, (b) objective quality of the product, and (c) quality as perceived by client. The specific attributes of the design element (i.e., organization, service employee, and the client) are elaborated upon. It is suggested that the organization can assure quality by seeking feedback from clients and service employees, monitoring the service production phases, and managing inter-customer interactions.

  • Today the u-government services are becoming more personalized and intelligent. For the successful implementation of personalization, individual user's privacy concerns must be respected and taken care of. Based on the empirical survey results, this research summarizes the reluctance to the government's use of private information using six categories. We measure user's psychological distance toward e-government using the four levels, adopting the suggestions by the Proxemics. Since a positive correlation is Identified between people's psychological Intimacy toward e-government and their tolerance to the use of private Information, the amount and/or types of private information should be sequentially used in personalization systems. Initially allowing the least intolerable private information such as occupation information, the personalization system should additionally use the next tolerable Information such as health information or service request/interest information, as user's psychological distance toward government services becomes shorter.

  • The emergence of the Internet has provided a new outlet for consumers who experience service failure from products and services, augmenting the traditional options of entry, voice and action. Consumers' negative word of mouth through online (word-of-mouse or eWOM) far exceeds traditional word of mouth (WOM) in respect of its potential effectiveness, speed and spread. This paper tries to figure out the service failure themes in the health care industry by analyzing online word-of-mouse using the critical incidents technique (CIT). Complaint themes in the area of healthcare are identified and analyzed. The results identify that major complaint theme differed according to the site type. Also, the findings indicate that delivery and customer services are critical issues when consumer makes negative WOM.
