Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify health problems and support received from the health and welfare service using MDS-HC(Minimun Data Set for Home Care) in the aged living at home.

Method: Eighty-one elderly persons were selected from those listed in community-welfare service centers in Seoul and Kyunggi Province between December 2002 and January 2003.

Result: Eleven health problems per elderly person on average were identified, and the frequent care needs were in order: preventive health measure, health promotion, visual function, depression & anxiety, communication disorders, social function, pain, environmental assessment, oral health, cognition and falls. The number of health problems by the level of ADL was ¢¥ADL 1(Independence)¢¥ 9.87, ¢¥ADL 2(Partial independence)¢¥ 12.78, ¢¥ADL 3(Dependence)¢¥ 13.73. Utilization of formal health & welfare services among the elderly was ¢¥meals on wheels¢¥ 40.7%, ¢¥home helper¢¥ 38.2%, ¢¥visiting of social welfare worker¢¥ 21.0%, ¢¥physical therapy¢¥ 19.6%, ¢¥day care center¢¥ 12.3%, ¢¥volunteer¢¥s service¢¥ 9.9%, ¢¥home visiting care¢¥ 3.7%, ¢¥occupational therapy¢¥ 3.7%, and ¢¥speech therapy¢¥ 2.5%.
