Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the influence of satisfaction, self-esteem, and depression on adjustment of elderly patients in long-term care hospitals. The subjects were 116 elderly patients in 15 long-term care hospitals in B and K city. Data were collected from February 14 to March 30, 2015, and analyzed by t-rest, ANOVA, Scheff's test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. According to the results, there were significant differences in adjustment by religion, marital status, economic status, and perceived level of difficult problems. Adjustment was positively related to satisfaction and self-esteem. In addition, a negative correlation was observed between adjustment and depression. Meaningful variables that influenced the adjustment of elderly patients were depression, satisfaction, self-esteem, and religion. These factors accounted for 53.5% of the total variance in adjustment of the elderly patients in long-term care hospitals, and depression was the most influential factor. In conclusion, development and implementation of effective programs and strategies to reduce depression and to increase satisfaction with care and self-esteem is needed in order to enhance the adjustment of elderly patients in long-term care hospitals.

본 연구는 요양병원 입원노인의 간호만족도, 자아존중감 및 우울이 적응에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 대상자는 B시와 K시 소재 15개 요양병원 입원노인 116명이며, 자료수집기간은 2015년 2월14일에서 3월31일 까지였다. 수집된 자료는 t-test, ANOVA, Scheff's test, Pearson's correlation coefficients와 multiple regression으로 분석하였다. 연구결과, 대상자의 간호만족도 정도는 평균평점이 $3.92{\pm}0.60$으로 비교적 높게 나타났다. 자아존중감 정도는 평균평점이 $2.83{\pm}0.47$로 중간보다 높게 나타났으며, 우울정도는 평균평점이 $0.38{\pm}0.25$로 비교적 낮게 나타났다. 대상자의 적응정도는 평균평점이 $3.45{\pm}0.64$로 비교적 높게 나타났다. 대상자의 적응 정도는 제 특성 중종교, 배우자 유무, 지각된 경제상태, 지각된 힘든 문제에 따라 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 간호만족도와 적응과의 관계와 자아존중감과 적응과의 관계는 각각 중간정도의 양의 상관관계가 있었고 통계적으로 유의하였다. 우울과 적응과의 관계는 강한 음의 상관관계가 있었고, 통계적으로 유의하였다. 적응을 설명하는 유의한 변수는 우울, 간호만족도, 자아존중감, 종교 순이었으며, 전체 설명력은 53.5%이었다. 따라서 요양병원 입원노인의 적응을 높이기 위해서는 우울을 감소시키고, 간호만족도와 자아존중감을 높일 수 있는 간호중재의 개발을 위한 구체적인 노력이 필요하다.
