초록

본 연구는 국내 이주노동자들의 의료서비스 이용실태와 삶의 질에 영향 요인들을 파악하기 위해 시행되었다. 국내에 거주하고 있는 이주노동자 135명을 대상으로 2012년 9월 10일부터 11월 15일까지 연구를 진행하였다. 수집된 자료는 t-test, ANOVA, Scheff' test, 위계적 다중회귀분석으로 분석하였다. 전반적으로 이주노동자들은 의료서비스 이용에 어려움을 경험하고 있었고, 삶의 질은 평균 $14.25{\pm}2.01$점으로 낮게 나타났다. 삶의 질에 영향요인으로는 국내 거주기간, 거주지역, 의료서비스에 대한 만족감으로 나타났다. 최종 회귀분석 모델에서는 삶의 질이 16.7%의 변화를 보였다. 의료서비스에 대한 만족감이 이주노동자들의 삶의 질에 영향요인으로 나타났다. 그러므로, 이주노동자들의 국내 의료서비스의 만족감을 향상시킬 수 있는 다양한 전략의 개발이 필요할 것이다.

The aim of this study was to identify the utilization of health services and factors influencing the quality of life(QOL) of migrant workers. The participants were 135 migrant workers in Korea. Data was collected from September 10th 2012 to November 15th 2012. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Scheff' test, and hierarchical multiple regression. Immigrant workers experienced difficulty in using health services and had a $14.25{\pm}2.01$ QOL, which was relatively low. The factors influencing QOL were the length of stay in Korea, residence areas, and satisfaction with health services. Final regression model accounted for 16.7% of the variance in QOL. The satisfaction level with health services was the most influential factors in the level of the QOL. Therefore, diverse strategies should be developed to enhance the satisfaction with health services in Korea migrant workers.
