Abstract

The aim of this study is to structuralize a model of the factors determining the quality of nursing care perceived by the director or manager of a long-term care facilities (hospitalization of patients) using FSM(Fuzzy Structural Modeling), employed in structuralizing social systems. The results were as follows: first, quality in the top tier was shown to be connected with job commitment, commitment to the organization, work experience, care skills, knowledge about the elderly, training and education, which are factors in the middle tier; and second, the structure of the middle tier (job commitment, commitment to the organization, work experience, care skills, knowledge about the elderly, training and education) either showed a connection with the lower tier, which includes employment type, job satisfaction, leadership, relationship with users and workplace relationships, or showed a connection among the factors within. These results confirmed the following: first, care skills and knowledge about the elderly, which demonstrate the job expertise of caregivers, showed a connection with service quality based on work experience; second, job commitment in the middle tier was observed to affect various factors in the same tier such as care skills, knowledge about the elderly, training and education amongst others, and it was determined that it is an important determining factor in service quality. Lastly, a meaningful result was shown in relation to leadership. The leadership skills of the director of the facilities had a connection with the care caregivers' commitment to the organization, which had a connection with service quality. This structure showed the kind of role the director must play in order to improve service quality.

본 연구는 장기요양시설(입소시설)에서 근무하는 시설장 또는 관리자가 인식하고 있는 요양서비스 질 결정모형을 사회시스템의 구조화에 이용되고 있는 FSM을 이용하여 구조화하는데 목적이 있으며 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 최상층의 서비스 질은 중간층의 직무몰입, 조직몰입, 경력, 요양기술, 노인에 대한 지식, 연수 및 교육과 연결되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 중간층(직무몰입, 조직몰입, 경력, 요양기술, 노인에 대한 지식, 연수 및 교육)은 하위층의 고용형태, 직무만족, 리더쉽, 이용자 관계, 직장 내 인간관계와 연결되어 있거나, 중간층에 위치한 요인 간에 연결되어 있는 구조로 나타났으며 구체적 결과는 다음과 같다. 직무몰입에는 직무만족과 이용자 관계, 조직몰입에는 리더쉽과 직장 내 인간관계, 경력에는 고용형태와 직무만족이 연결되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 요양기술에는 직무만족, 경력, 노인에 대한 지식, 연수 및 교육, 노인에 대한 지식에는 직무몰입, 경력, 연수 및 교육, 연수 및 교육에는 직무몰입이 연결되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 통해 다음과 같은 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 첫째, 요양보호사의 업무전문성을 나타내는 요양기술 및 노인에 대한 지식은 경력을 바탕으로 해서 서비스 질에 연결되는 구조를 보였다. 둘째, 중간층의 직무몰입은 최상위층의 서비스 질에 연결되어 있으면서 같은 중간층에 위치한 요양기술, 노인에 대한 지식, 연수 및 교육 등 다양한 요인에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 서비스 질을 결정하는 데 중요한 요인임을 알 수 있었다. 마지막으로 리더십과 관련하여 의미있는 결과를 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 시설장의 리더십이 조직몰입에 연결되고 조직몰입이 서비스 질에 연결되는 구조를 통해 서비스 질 향상을 위해 시설장이 수행할 역할을 확인할 수 있었다.
