본 연구는 노인장기요양보험제도 2차 시범사업 결과를 바탕으로 우리나라 노인의 요양시설 서비스 이용에 영향을 미치는 요인을 탐색해 보고자 하였다. 이론적 모형으로는 앤더선과 뉴만(Andersen and Newman)의 행동주의 모델을 토대로 하여 영향요인을 구분하였으며, 연구방법은 의사결정분석을 이용하였다. 분석결과 서비스 이용에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것은 대상 노인의 서비스 이용의향이었으며, 이러한 선행요인 다음 중요한 요인으로 자원 요인(수발자 있음 및 동거가족 여부)으로 나타났다. 욕구요인으로는 인지장애가 있는 경우, 치매로 인한 문제행동이 있는 경우, 기본적 일상생활수행능력에 있어 완전도움을 받아야 하는 경우로 나타났다. 이러한 분석결과는 앤더슨과 뉴만의 행동주의 이론의 과정을 그대로 보여주고 있음을 알 수 있는데, 즉 선행요인과 자원요인에 의해 서비스 이용형태가 달라지며, 이러한 선행요인과 자원요인은 욕구요인과 결합하여 실제 서비스 이용에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 본 연구는 시설 서비스 이용 대상자의 욕구요인을 정확히 파악하여 이에 적절한 서비스 내용을 구축하고 지역사회 내 시설서비스 이용노인을 선별하는데 기초 자료를 제공하는데 기여하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate unit care characteristics of large skilled nursing facilities for the elderly, which are located in city areas, and to discuss the way of encouraging home-like atmosphere in perspective of spatial unit. First of all, the analysis of five facilities opened before 2002 was performed, based on previous studies, to compare with them opened in recent 5 years. Most of the previous facilities did not have differentiation between their residential and nursing units, and the number of residents in each unit were excessive in comparison with the standard limit(12-28). On the contrary, the facilities established in recent 5 years had systematic spatial unit structure. The residential units had basically rooms and spaces for small group and the number of elderly residents per unit was appropriate on the basis of standard limit which was suggested by Kwon(2002). The nursing units were consist of nursing station, 2-3 residential units, spaces for large group of residents, hair dressing, nurse, living assistant, bathing, storage and etc. But, there was a problem In space usage even though they have distinct unit care systems.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the spatial characteristics of residential and nursing units in large skilled nursing facilities for the elderly that were located in city areas, and to discuss the way for efficient unit care. For collecting the data, the researcher visited 6 facilities to make explorations and to interview the staff concerned. Most of the research facilities had systematic residential units that each unit basically had elderly private rooms and the spaces for small group. The number of elderly residents per unit was appropriate for the limit which was suggested by Kwon(2002), but the sizes of small group spaces were smaller than the standard limit($1.62m^{2}$ per resident). The nursing units were made up of nursing station, 2-4 residential units, spaces for large group of residents, hair dressing, nurse, living assistants, bathing, storage and etc. Some of them had problem in efficiency of space use because they did not have distinct usage. In conclusion, this study suggests that each floor has one nursing unit including 40 residents maximum and each nursing unit consists of 2-3 residential units that have 20 residents maximum per unit. In each residential unit, the furniture and spaces for efficient unit-care should be arranged, such as TV, dining table, kitchenette, bathroom, and rooms for living assistants. The hall type is better for the small group so that it has a transitional characteristic leading to the public spaces. The large group space needs to have clear usage such as conducting program differentiated from small group, and various furniture such as sofa, TV, table, and etc which encourage the elderly voluntary use.
