Abstract

PurposeThis study utilized text mining to analyze research trends around community care, which focuses on improving patients’ quality of life by lessening the financial burden on caregivers and relieving patient discomfort.MethodsTo examine research trends by community care stage, Section 1 is set from 2017 to 2019, when the community care was implemented, and Section 2 from 2020 to 2021, after the end of the community care. Papers used for the analysis were extracted using the Korea Citation Index (KCI); a total of 132 articles were selected and subjected to text mining analysis.ResultsFirst, the main community care research areas included work, housing, economy, disability, and mind. Second, from 2017 to 2019, there was considerable interest in community care centered on households, and main keywords, such as nursing, family, and experience, appeared. Third, from 2020 to the present, there was high interest in community care centered on disabilities, and keywords, such as space, business, and Seoul City, appeared.ConclusionThe results reveal the changing issues, with the implementation of community care. Overall, research has tended to focus on social and welfare systems, rather than health and medical systems. In the future, local, community-integrated health and medical care systems should be restructured and regional delivery systems established to make them more accessible.
