Korea is experiencing rapid aging due to compressed industrialization and economic development. There is an urgent need to search for ways to protect the quality of life and basic rights of the elderly population. This study begins with the demand analysis of welfare services and facilities of the elderly and of those that must be supported for areas selected for the elderly friendly model regions of the government(MHWFA). AHP questionnaire techniques were utilized to measure the relative importance of the demand of welfare. Results of the analysis for the first structure was that both suppliers and consumers had a relatively higher demand for health, medicine and welfare rather than preference for physical infrastructure such as residences and transportation. In the second structure, though there was a regional difference, there was a high demand for medical center, health center, senior welfare complex, local social senior clubs and retirement services. On the other hand, short-term care facilities, hospice facilities and day-time hospitals were shown to have a low importance and in the area being studied, elderly welfare demands were focused more on facilities that could provide one-stop services for prevention, management and welfare, compared to treatment-oriented facilities. When examining regional welfare demand features, farming areas such as Uisung and Sunchang require the construction of infrastructure for health and medical services, as well as jobs for the elderly, while it can improve the effectiveness of welfare policies by combining functions rather than expanding facilities, and through integrated services. For areas such as Wonju and Buyeo, it is necessary to satisfy access of the outside population through expanded residential and traffic infrastructures, while satisfying the needs for the various elderly population. In order for the government and public support to establish an effective policy fitting to the local features, we need to carefully consider multi-faceted demand analysis techniques that reflect the demands of both the supplier and consumer. |
