초록

(Background and Purpose) The pace of aging in Korea is accelerating causing rapid increase in the elderly population. The elderly nursing homes have showed a higher growth rate than the elderly sanatoriums. In order to maintain a comfortable communal life for the elderly, there is a growing need to respond to the changes in the elderly population. Therefore, this research focuses on the regeneration of space for the elderly nursing homes. (Method) The methods of this study were conducted in parallel with the preceding studies, case studies, and surveys. Research methods are as follows. First, the theoretical background and status of the elderly care younger brother's house were examined through prior research; and through this, the spatial composition and characteristics necessary for the regeneration of the elderly nursing homes were derived. The spatial components were derived from the typical characteristics like stability, health, and applicability. Second, case studies were conducted based on the items organized and a questionnaire survey on usability was administered to users. Third, after the survey, the usability evaluation was analyzed using the SPSS program. (Results) First, the top four areas for the elderly nursing homes in Seoul were selected based on the Ministry of Health and Welfare's "2018 Status of Welfare Facilities for the Elderly." Second, we analyzed the space in the selected elderly nursing homes. Third, the survey results were analyzed through questionnaires and the SPSS program. The results of a one-way ANOVA that was conducted to verify differences in satisfaction between different age groups are as follows: space width, preventing slippage, removing thresholds, installing guardrails, lighting brightness, sound insulation, proper placement of instruments, and sufficient number of various types of instruments showed significant differences. Emergency bell installation and spatial cleanliness did not show any significant differences. The results of a one-way ANOVA that was conducted to verify differences in satisfaction on the basis of health condition are as follows: space width, preventing slippage, removing threshold, installing guardrails, emergency bell installation, lighting brightness, cleanliness, acoustic facilities, and sufficient equipment types showed significant differences. No significant differences in instrument position allowances were observed. (Conclusions) The older the age and health, the greater the interest in the installation of the interior space of the nursing home, and the lower the age and the healthier the installation, the less the interest and the more satisfied the installation is, the more likely it is to be necessary to carefully consider the target of age and health. An elderly nursing home is a space where elderly people gather and interact with each other. Therefore, natural communication and daily leisure activities for the elderly should be encouraged by ensuring a healthy environment and sufficiently wide spaces. The elderly nursing homes should also consist of safety elements while providing a free space for the elderly.
