Abstract

|
The subjects of this paper were dental hygienists who had clinically worked for more than three years and had another occupation in small, medium, or large cities. A questionnaire consisting of 24 sheets was surveyed to them from April 2009 to June 2009 for about three months. The results were analyzed to research the perception of dental hygienists regarding old life after retirement and occupations. Females who have occupations have increased and have made efforts to obtain their rights. So far, researches have been made in diverse social stratums regarding how females with occupations plan for their later years; however, there have been no researches for professional women, specifically dental hygienists. Thus, the purposes of this paper are to raise the awareness of dental hygienists in this aging society about needs for planning for their later years and to propose the ideal direction of preparing for their life after retirement. Relatively, all the dental hygienists had a vague idea of their later years. They planned to retire in their fifties and to become housewives after retirement most. Their occupational diseases were arthritis, lumbago, failure of their memory, tremor of the hands, and pres byopia in sequence.
