Low birth rate and rapidly aging population, the importance of welfare is in progress these days is on the rise. Accordingly, social welfare is to use a lot of subjects, and also the demand for facilities is growing. Largely by social welfare facilities, living facilities and intermediate facilities can be divided into.
Facilities primarily home care center outpatient facility as a professional with a program of home health caregivers care, education, training, and rehabilitation purposes, community optional or subjective day use facilities and limited use facilities.
In addition, the living facilities for those who need the facilities to service by acceptance of everyday life through the protection and assistance needs of the service facility is doing. Home, but not protection, education, rest and emotional support at least the maintenance of the possible conditions and further rehabilitation, treatment, training and other facilities, is featured. And intermediate care facilities and welfare facilities, and homes with facilities located in the middle is seen as a generic term.
However, these days are not using the intermediate facility.
In addition, the concept of social welfare functions are summarized in the treatment specifically protected in that way, good, guidance, outreach, and training (knowledge, skills), mental and physical therapy, etc. Especially the composition has the capability. This social welfare has many features.
However, in order to perform these functions play an important role of employees in the facility and subsequent mental and physical stress, suffer from. Thus, reducing intensive tasks associated with direct service to people with frail and in order to provide reliability and ease of ubiquitous computing system should be introduced.
Currently the country due to the development of IT technology, the world's most advanced information and communication system in the country built to switch to the ubiquitous era, it has been studied.
The introduction of ubiquitous computing system in our lives will provide many conveniences. Ubiquitous 'anytime, anywhere computing implementation' refers to an system.
In developed countries, domestic as well as the introduction of ubiquitous computing system for research and development support to the government and private organizations has many.
In Domesticate, a key technology ubiquitous IPv6, RFID, optical character recognition, biometrics, smart cards, and political leverage. Administrative, economic, medical and personal care sector by introducing and has been an effort to take advantage.
In social welfare facilities, if the introduction of ubiquitous computing system, management's perspective, a positive effect on facility operation would seem, for the facility worker perspective, business processes and goal setting sheet. Drawback to identify, would be a great help in relief work.
In addition, the client using the location and status information in real time to emergency situations will be able to cope, PDA, smartphones, laptops and electronic devices utilizing the place, without time constraints, anytime, anywhere to work quickly will be able to handle. Of course, the introduction of ubiquitous computing system to solve the problem as there is in the first.
First, social welfare facilities, operators, employees, members of the private information, including client. Theft and privacy violations, misuse of personal location and monitoring. Wiretapping, there can be information such as the blind faith to resolve it because the legal and technical must precede the money is.
If you do not, and learn about themselves in a computer or a robot equipped with the intelligence is the ability for the computer control may be lost.
Accordingly, the identity of human and nonhuman problem can be ambiguous, and applying biometric technologies to take advantage of the machine is inserted into the body of human influenza and bio-Han / privacy breach is likely to be increased.
Ubiquitous in the system can cause many problems when introducing specialist training and the legal and institutional mechanisms established to propose solutions if the supplement can go, and the shortcoming would be a perfect system can be built.
Therefore, the future of social welfare facilities, the introduction of ubiquitous computing system and ease of operation of the facility operators to reduce worker's job will be a big help, frail residents and families will be able to offer reliability and convenience.
Accordingly, social welfare facilities will be expanded by users to use, harsh systems, the social welfare of the art facilities, with new concepts and facilities will be converted.
