PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop the first standardized education & training program for education of senile long-term care managers to improve the quality of senile long-term care service. METHODS: The study developed programs through literature review, specialists' conference and interview with the linear approach from February, 2007 to May, 2007. RESULTS: Senile long-term care managers should have qualification of 51 items in knowledge, 35 items in technology and 17 items in attitude. Total 8 subjects were education & training subjects of senile long-term care managers and the study proposed targets of each subject and education & training level divided into top, middle and bottom. Total education & training hours were composed of 70 hours in theory, 50 hours in practical technique and 40 hours in social welfare practice in agencies. CONCLUSION: The study will contributed development of the first education & training programs for education of senile long-term care managers. Therefore, the study proposes that the study will be applied to a systematical education & training course through program verification after applying real programs to senile long-term care managers and that it is necessary to develop the standardized education & training program for higher senile long-term care managers.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships between death anxiety and terminal care performance of nurses at long term care hospitals. METHODS: Data were collected from 148 nurses working at 12 long term care hospitals in Busan from March 16, 2016 through May 16, 2016. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé test and Pearson's correlation coefficient with SPSS 18.0 for Windows. RESULTS: Terminal care performance was positively correlated with anxiety about other people's death (r=0.310, P≤0.001) and that of their own death (r=0.250, P=0.002). CONCLUSION: It appears necessary to develop a systematical educational program for terminal care nurses of to reduce their death anxiety and improve their terminal care performance.

Reimbursement system for long-term care have to be based on the several principles: reimbursing cost of the care provision, maintaining quality, containing unnecessary cost, and minimizing administrative cost. Although it is difficult to adopt single system to satisfy all stakeholders, first of all characteristics of long-term care should be considered in developing the system. Among them, prepayment system based on the functional classification of the subjects would be given the highest priority, because resource utilization of the elderly people who need long-term care would be dependent on the functional status rather than diseases or specific problems.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to identify the influencing factors on turnover intention of nurses in long-term care hospitals. METHODS: Data were collected from 210 nurses in 11 long-term care hospitals in B city. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and Stepwise multiple regression. RESULTS: Turnover intention was significantly correlated with emotional labor(r=.35, p<.001) and job involvement (r=-.38, p<.001). In a multiple regression, emotional labor (beta=.31, p<.001), age (beta=-.27, p<.001), job satisfaction (beta=.24, p<.001), job involvement (beta=-.23, p<.001), and number of patients assigned(beta=.14, p=.009) were associated with turnover intention. These factors attributed to 41.2% of the total variance in turnover intention. CONCLUSION: Considering the results of this study, proactive educational and/or human resource management interventions need to be developed especially for those younger nurses in order to reduce emotional labor as well as to promote job satisfaction and job involvement of nurses in long-term care hospitals.
