Abstract

|
|
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between satisfaction with facility, depression and ADL in elderly people residing in nursing homes. Data were collected between April 4 and 16, 2001 using a structured questionnaire which included general characteristics, facility satisfaction, depression and ADL scales.
The results of this study are summarized as follows :
1. Depression and ADL showed a significant relationship(r=0.340, p=0.004).
2. ADL and satisfaction with facility also showed a significant relationship(r= 0.401, p=0.001).
3. There was no direct relationship between depression and satisfaction with facility (r=0.133, p=0.269).
In conclusion, the following suggestions are made. First there is a need for continuous study on the relationship between satisfaction with facility, depression and ADL in elderly people residing in nursing homes. Second, a wide range of study on elderly people who live in home and stay at hospital in addition to those who reside in nursing homes is required.
