노인주야간보호센터 요양보호사의 역할스트레스와 우울이 직무만족에 미치는 영향 : 사회적 지지의 조절효과

홍주현(Hong ju-hyun) 한국복지실천학회 2020 한국복지실천학회지 Vol.12 No.1

본 연구는 노인주야간보호센터 요양보호사의 역할스트레스와 우울 인식이 직무만족에 미치는 정도를 설명하기 위해, 그 과정에서 사회적 지지의 조절효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 연구의 정책적 함의는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 국민건강보험공단에서는 요양보호사 처우 개선과 관련하여 현재 시행되고 있는 처우 개선비는 장기근속수당의 형태로서 급여형태로 지급되고 있으나 처우 개선비는 장기요양 수가 외 별도로 지급되어야 할 것이다. 또한, 향후 장기요양급여 수가 인상이나 요양보호사 급여에 반영하여 정책적으로 개선하는 것이 바람직하다고 사료된다. 둘째, 역할스트레스의 하위요소로서 역할 관련 문항을 조사하였으며, 요양보호사를 대상으로 하는 별도의 휴게 휴식의 공간 등과 같은 복리후생 시설에 대한 보완은 요양보호사가 근무 중 직무환경을 편안하고 쾌적하게 만듦으로써 본인에 대한 안정감은 결국에는 수급자인 노인들에 대한 서비스의 질을 높일 수 있다. 본 연구의 실천적 함의는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 다양한 직군이 근무하는 업무환경 중에서 요양보호사의 역할을 규정하고, 과부하가 발생치 않도록 하는 관리를 통해 요양보호사의 권리를 강화해야 한다. 둘째, 업무의 혼란, 과부하 등의 업무환경 중 동료 간의 마찰, 감정, 불신 등으로 서로 신뢰하지 못하여 역할스트레스와 우울이 발생하곤 한다. 기관이나 시설에서는 상담 시에는 고젓 관련 기록의 일지를 작성하여야 하고, 피드백을 통하여 요양보호사들 간의 중재자 역할도 감당해야 한다. 또한, 정기적인 단합대회 진행도 필요하고, 모두가 참여하는 다양한 친목의 프로그램을 개발하는 것이 좋다. 셋째, 역할스트레스 및 우울이 발생하는 요인 중에서 시설장, 상사, 동료와의 불화는 업무적인 지시, 공정성의 문제, 해결능력의 부족 등에서 요인이 가중되고 있으므로 시설장 또는 관리운영 분야의 책임자는 요양보호사와의 또는 요양보호사 간의 의사소통을 주기적인 상담과정을 통해 소통해 나가야 한다. 또한, 시설장 및 관리운영의 책임자급에 대한 리더십 교육을 통하여 불화방지를 위해 노력해야 한다. The purpose of this study was to explain the influence of role stress and depression perceived by care workers in senior daycare centers on their own job satisfaction by verifying the moderation effects of social support in that process. And this study proved that role stress and depression increased job satisfaction through the moderation of social support. The policy suggestions of the study are as follows: First, the cost for the improvement of treatment for care workers that is currently provided is offered by the National Health Insurance Service as part of pay in the form of allowance for long service, but that should be provided separately, not as a fee for long-term care. In addition, it seems advisable to improve the related policy by reflecting the necessity of it to raise the fee for long-term care and pay for care workers. Second, role-related items were used as a subfactor of role stress to make an investigation. As for supplement of welfare benefit facilities for care workers such as a lounge or rest area, care workers can feel stable about themselves if their work environments are made to be comfortable and pleasant, and it can, in turn, improve the quality of services for elderly people who are recipients. Accordingly, it s needed to make the installation of a separate rest place obligatory by law so that care workers could get rest even for a moment during their nonwork hours. Third, care workers in long-term care facilities where senior citizens dwell spend a lot of time with them or their caregivers due to the characteristics of their job, and job conflicts and role stress take place under the circumstances. To relieve such role conflicts and role stress, training and education should be provided for them to build good relationships with recipients and caregivers to reduce what causes stress and depression. In addition, cooperation from recipients and caregivers is necessary to help care workers maintain their identity as care helpers, not as home helpers. To make it happen, the National Health Insurance Service and other institutions should make a sustained effort to improve the way of looking at care workers by formulating an effective policy or by publicity. The practical suggestions of the study are as follows: First, the role of care workers should be defined in today s job environments where there are a wide variety of occupational groups, and they should be well managed to avoid overload to reinforce their rights. As stress and depression are attributed to job characteristics like long-time work and shortage of rest spaces for a short break among work environments, not only support from supervisors and colleagues but also emotional support from families and recipients are all necessary, and superintendents should intervene directly and serve as mentors through counseling and case management to relieve the causes of stress and depression. Second, another cause for role stress and depression is lack of mutual trust that is ascribed to friction and negative feelings in work environments that involve confusion of work and overload. Institutions should keep a journal about grievance during counseling, offer feedback and even fulfill the role of mediator between care workers. Besides, regular retreat is required, and it s advisable to develop various socializing programs in which everybody can participate. Third, discord with superintendents, supervisors or colleagues that is also one of the causes for role stress and depression stems from improper directions, unfairness or poor solving skills. Superintendents or people responsible for management should offer regular counseling to communicate with care workers and facilitate mutual communication among them. Finally, leadership education should be provided for these people in charge to prevent any possible discord.

Sung, Young-Hee,Yi, Young-Hee,Kwon, In-Gak,Cho, Yang-Ae Korean Society of Nursing Science 2006 Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing Vol.36 No.8

Purpose. To determine and compare the perception among nurses and doctors of the roles and tasks of critical care advanced practice nurses (APNs) in order to establish standardized and formally agreed role criteria for such critical care APNs. Method. This study measured and analyzed the necessity of each of the roles and tasks of critical care APNs, as perceived by nurses and doctors, through a survey of 121 participants: 71 nurses in 7 intensive care units (ICUs) at a general hospital in Seoul, and 50 doctors who used ICUs. Data collection utilized a questionnaire of 128 questions in the following fields: direct practice (79), leadership and change agent (17), consultation and collaboration (15), education and counseling (11), and research (6). Results. Both the nurses' and the doctors' groups confirmed the necessity of critical care APNs, with doctors who frequently used ICUs indicating a particularly strong need. As for the priority of each role of critical care APNs, the nurses considered direct practice to be the most critical, followed by education and counseling, research, consultation and collaboration, and leadership and change agent. The doctors also considered direct practice to be the most critical, followed by education and counseling, consultation and collaboration, research, and leadership and change agent. There was a statistically significant difference between how the two groups regarded all the roles, except for the consultation and collaboration roles. As for the necessity of each role of critical care APNs, the nurses considered research to be the most necessary, followed by education and counseling, consultation and collaboration, leadership and change agent, and direct practice. The doctors, on the other hand, considered education and counseling to be the most necessary, followed by research, consultation and collaboration, leadership and change agent, and direct practice. The responses of the two groups to all the roles, except for education and counseling roles, were significantly different. Conclusion. Nurses and doctors have different perceptions of the roles and tasks of critical care APNs. Thus, it is necessary for the combined nursing and medical fields to reach an official agreement on a set of criteria to standardize for the roles and tasks of critical care APNs.

여성의 노부모 보살핌 경험에 관한 연구

이동옥 부산대학교 여성연구소 2011 여성학연구 Vol.21 No.1

This paper starts from the question, how the women who offered care labor for their aged parents interpret and give meaning to their experiences. The elderly care in Korean family has been regarded as the gender role embedded in the cultural context of the Confucian filial duty and thus the government has ignored the issue in the public sphere. But the recent increase of the aged people and working women and the visualization of elder abuse stimulated the necessity of the institutionalization of elderly care. Nevertheless, the family and especially women are not free from the responsibility for the elders. This research inquires into the women’s experiences through the in-depth interviews with the women who cared for elderly parents as daughters or as daughters-in-law. The interviewees were 10 people living in Seoul. Each participant had two or three interviews, for one or two hours per each interview. Their ages are various from the forties to the seventies. The reason why there was no age restriction on interviewees was because this research was interested in any possible change resulting from age difference in the care of elderly parents. According to the result of the research, daughters-in-law's responsibility for parents-in-law in the paternal family tends to have lessened relatively compared with the past. Nevertheless,they still feel that they are responsible for the care of the parents-in-law. Meanwhile, the research shows that the daughters who live with their elderly parents or have intimate relationship with them care for them from their own hearts. Nonetheless, the care for elderly parents was physically, mentally, and emotionally hard work. Women quit the job and experienced the cutting of the career because of the care for elderly parents. Even though women played the multiple roles such as housewives and mothers, their husbands did not support them. Since the elderly care is regarded as the troublesome, odd jobs, and the gendered role, women’s self-esteem was depreciated. Meanwhile, women understood the fact that aging and dying is the course of life through their care for their parents and accepted their time with elderly parents as the precious opportunity to feel empathy with them. The value of elderly care has been ignored in the feminist discourses. But the revaluation of elderly care services will be helpful as women's issue. Despite the institutionalization of elderly care, women's care for elderly parents does not decrease due to distrust of institution and the prejudice that the care of elderly parents are women's job. The idea that the care for elderly parents within family boundary is filial duty fixes women's role and hampers the institutionalization of elderly care. In order not to alienate Women's care for elderly parents, society should encourage men's participation and their emotional and physical support for elderly care. The institutionalization of elderly care in the public sphere should also reduce the economic burden and support the reliable elderly care. 본 논문은 여성들이 가족 내에서 노부모를 보살핀 경험을 어떻게 해석하고 의미를 부여하는가에서 출발한다. 한국에서 노인보살핌은 유교 효문화의 맥락에서 가족 내의 여성의 역할로서 인식되어 왔고 국가는 방임적인 자세를 취해 왔다. 현재 노인인구의 증가와 취업여성의 증가, 노인학대의 가시화 등으로 인해 노인보살핌의 제도화가 진행되고 있지만 가족, 특히 여성들은 노부모를 책임져야 한다는 의식에서 자유롭지 못하다. 이 연구는 며느리와 딸의 위치에서 노부모를 보살핀 여성들에게 심층면접을 실시함으로써 여성들의 경험을 살펴보았다. 심층면접은 현재 서울에 거주하는 10명의 연구참여자에게 2-3차에 걸쳐, 1회에 1-2시간씩 실시되었다. 연구참여자들의 연령은 40대-70대까지 다양하다. 연령을 제한하지 않은 이유는 연령간의 차이를 통해 노인보살핌의 책임에 대한 시대적 변화를 살펴보기 위한 것이다. 연구결과, 부계가족 내에서 시부모에 대한 며느리의 책임은 과거보다 줄어든 경향이 있지만, 여전히 며느리들은 의무감을 갖고 있었다. 반면에 친정과의 친밀한 관계를 유지하거나 부모와 함께 사는 딸들은, 부모에 대한 연민과 사랑으로 적극적으로 보살핌을 하고 있었다. 하지만 노인보살핌은 정서적, 신체적, 정신적으로 힘든 노동이었다. 여성들은 노부모를 보살피기 위해 직장을 그만두거나 경력 단절을 경험한다. 여성들은 가족 내에서 아내, 어머니 등의 다중적인 역할에도 불구하고 남편의 도움을 받지 못했다. 이와 같이, 노인보살핌은 여성의 역할로 인식되고 있었기 때문에 여성들은 자존감이 저하되었다. 반면에, 여성들은 노부모 보살핌을 통해서 나이듦과 죽음을 삶의 과정으로 수용하고, 아픈 노부모와 교감하면서 시간을 함께 보낼 수 있다고 해석한다. 노인보살핌의 가치는 여성주의의 논의에서 간과되어 왔지만, 가치의 재평가는 여성문제로서 노인보살핌을 해결하는 데에 도움이 된다. 노인보살핌의 제도화에도 불구하고, 시설과 유급노동자에 대한 불신과 노부모를 직접 보살피는 것이 효도라는 통념은 여성들의 부담을 경감시키지 못하고 있다. 가족의 틀 안에서만 노부모를 보살피는 것이 최선이라는 사고는 제도적 지원의 의미를 변형시키고 여성들의 역할을 고정시킨다. 노부모 보살핌이 여성들의소외된 노동이 되지 않기 위해서는 가족과 사회의 차원에서 정서적 지원과 남성들의 참여를 권장하는 한편, 제도적 차원에서 경제적 부담을 경감시키고 신뢰할만한 대체인력을 지원해야 한다.

간호사 역할과 간호교육의 패러다임 전환 : 커뮤니티 케어 중심으로

최귀윤 한국간호연구학회 2018 한국간호연구학회지 Vol.2 No.4

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to clarify the concept of community care, community care policy and delivery system, community care model and role of nurse, community care and nursing education in order to prepare competent nurses for community care. Methods : The research methods were reviewing literatures focused on the main words such as ‘role of nurse’, ‘nursing education’ and ‘community care’. Results : Population aging and change in the health care environment ask different roles for nurses. In particular, community care policies to help and maintain healthy aging in older people’s homes provide opportunities to expand the role of nurses. In order to promote effective Korean community care, a strategy for securing the health care workforce should be established and competent professionals should be appropriately placed. Therefore, universities should innovate and shift the paradigm on nursing education in order to prepare nurses capable of carrying out community-based care. Conclusion : The results of this study can be used as a basis for constructing curriculum for nurse competency development for community care and setting direction of nursing education for community care.

Objective : In this study, we tried to establish the basic data of occupational therapy in hospice and palliative care by confirming the role, awareness and knowledge of occupational therapists in the environment of hospice and palliative care. Methods : This study was conducted with 200 occupational therapists from all over the country who agreed to participate in the study. The survey was conducted through an online questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of a total of 41 questions, including 6 general characteristics, 10 questions related to the role of occupational therapist in hospice·palliative care, 20 questions on knowledge measurement of hospice·palliative care, and 5 questions on perception of occupational therapy in hospice·palliative care . Descriptive statistics were used for the general characteristics and priority, frequency, and proportion of occupational therapy roles in hospice and palliative care. Independent sample T-test and Kruskal-Wallis test were performed to understand the difference in hospice and palliative care knowledge measurement according to general characteristics. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to confirm the effect of perception of hospice and palliative care on knowledge of hospice and palliative care. Results : The priority for the role of occupational therapists in hospice and palliative care was high in the order of prepare for death, pain prevention and reduction, and quality of life. Overall awareness of hospice and palliative care was low, and the need and curriculum for occupational therapy in hospice and palliative care were high. Comparative analysis of hospice and palliative care knowledge according to general characteristics of occupational therapists did not show any significant difference. Conclusion : Through this study, it was possible to confirm the opinion and level of occupational therapy in hospice and palliative care of domestic occupational therapists.
