장애아 보육시설에서 근무하는 교사의 안전관리 및 응급처치 교육에 대한 지식과 수행정도

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine perceived safety management in teachers working for young children with disabilities, to grasp the state and problems of safety management and first-aid education at daycare center for young children with disabilities, and to provide basic materials to develop programs for safety management and first-aid education. Results :1. For the perception items of accident possibility in daycare centers, career with more than 10 years had higher response in ‘very high’ and ‘moderately high’ than ‘moderately or very low’ and statistically significant difference was found(p < .05). 2. For the perception items of accident prevention in daycare centers, no teaches with at least college education thought that ‘it was not possible to prevent’ and most of them thought that ‘it was totally possible to prevent’ and statistically significant difference was found(p < .05). 3. For the performance level of safety management and first-aid items, forty and over(4.73) showed higher than age of 20-29(4.32) and 30-39 of age(4.26) and statistically significant difference was found(p < .05). 4. For the knowledge level of safety management and first aid items, the highest religion was found as Christian(16.96), followed by Catholic(15.33), Buddhism(14.91), and no religion(15.81) and statistically significant difference was found(p < .05). 5. For the items of confidence in safety management and first aid, performance level, and knowledge level, teachers who competed safety management and first-aid education(4.48) had higher performance score than those who did not(4.17) and statistically significant difference was found(p < .05). 6. For the items of confidence in safety management and first aid, performance level, and knowledge level, teachers who competed first-aid education(2.77) had higher confidence than those who did not(2.35) and statistically significant difference was found(p < .05). Conclusion: he results suggest that safety management and first-aid education in teachers working for daycare center for young children with disabilities was closely correlated with knowledge and performance levels. Thus, it is necessary to provide continuous safety management and first-aid education for teachers working for daycare center for young children with disabilities through regular in-service training. Also further research should be conducted with all subjects and various regions who contact with young children with disabilities.
