摘要

本研究基於安養機構之使用者行為需求，針對相關空間以無障礙設計觀點進行檢視，以探討安養機構應有之無障礙設施設計內容，以觀察記錄法、深入訪談法與焦點團體法，現地調查台灣北中南東四區有意願參與研究之安養機構，對機構內部之管理者、照顧提供者與老人三者進行焦點訪談，以瞭解國內安養機構對於無障礙設施設計落實之狀況，並邀請政府單位、社會、建築、機構及照護等專業領域之相關主事者及專家學者，以座談會方式針對安養機構空間設施對於無障礙設施設計需優先改善之處、新建安養機構於無障礙設施設計之考量重點以及安養機構未來發展趨勢三方面進行討論與意見交流，經歸納提出因應對策及方案。

This study investigates the environment of present public senior care institutions in Taiwan through barrier-free design perspective using qualitative research including observation, in-depth interview and focus groups interview. This study is based on users’ need in senior facilities regarding geriatric behavior. Selected 7 willing institutions are distributed in 4 regions with different features in geographical locations, summed up common issues in applying barrier-free design cross-regionally. The environment was examined by semi-structured interview, representing both the 5 spatially hierarchical properties and the 4 principles of barrier-free design, with 3 groups of people including the manager, the caregiver and the elder of institutions. The investigation result was brought to the focus group interview for further discussion and analysis. To conclude, this study suggests several indications of adaptation for present institution, focused consideration of new-built institutions and future drift of senior care system in applying barrier-free design in senior care facilities.
