Recognized of Good Death by the Elderly in Korea : Qualitative Interpretive Meta Synthesis
Kil Tae-Young

Abstract
This study was performed on the recognition of good death by the elderly in Korea and conducted by applying the newly introduced the Qualitative Interpretive Meta Synthesis (QIMS) in the field of social welfare. A comprehensive analysis of each qualitative individual research paper examines the application method and characteristics of QIMS for the social welfare field because it can derive rich results through accumulated knowledge and synergistic understanding from the results presented by existing research papers. The sampling was extensively approached including eight dissertations, unpublished publications and academic papers published in Korea from 2000 to January 2019. The topics extracted from the qualitative individual research paper were integrated, and a total of four categories (1) empirical interpretation of death, (2) death with consideration and desire, (3) maintaining the meaning of life in preparation for death, (4) accepting death. The synergy understanding derived from the integrated themes is that a good death recognized by the elderly in Korea is understood as the acceptance of the future death by understanding the death through the experience of life, preparing the death with consideration and desire, and maintaining the meaning of life. Based on these results, this study will provide the basic data necessary for establishing welfare policies for the elderly and providing social welfare practice services that intervene in the good death of the elderly in Korea.
