本研究旨在根据上门健康需求及家庭在居家护理中的作用来确定受试者的健康状况。
数据收集期为2004年7月1日至2004年10月31日,受试者为488名60岁及以上居家或独居的老人,他们在韩国某城市地区的公共卫生中心上门健康服务处登记。本次调查由上门健康护士进行,老年人同意参与。
受试者总体健康状况在一般特征方面,根据年龄、性别、月收入、自我感知健康状况、已知功能障碍及是否患病存在差异。在所有健康状况领域,第一组上门健康护理需求远低于第二、三、四组。而且在所有健康状况领域,严重功能失调家庭低于轻度功能失调家庭和正常功能家庭。
护士必须针对有高上门健康需求且家庭严重功能失调的老年人提供考虑其特点的护理干预,这些老年人的医疗保健较为脆弱。
