本研究以貳次資料分析法,探討了政府出版品統計資料中,台灣自光復以來,「病人、幼兒與老人照顧」工作在「家庭」與「社會機構」之間相互轉移的長期趨勢。本研究的「健康照顧」包含了:1.(住院)病人照顧,以每萬人口病牀數為指標,2.幼兒照顧,以每萬適齡幼兒幼稚園數及適齡幼兒就學率為指標,3.老人(安養)照顧,以每十萬老年人口安養院數及每千老年人口受安養數為指標。結果發現「住院病人照顧」及「幼兒照顧」,均自民國60年代起,出現明顯的「社會機構取代家庭」的現象,「老人照顧」則不但無此現象,其取代程度反而自民國47-50年的高峯後便漸漸下際,60年代初期下降最快。本研究討論了可能的原因,預測了未來的趨勢,並作政策上的建議。

The index of ”health care” in the study included: 1. Acute patient care: acute beds per 10,000 population, 2.
