The rapid industrialization and economic growth of Korea recently brought forth social changes in view of social and economic structure, family structure, and man's view of life.
The aged problem of all social problems is recently brought into as a hot issue due to increasing aged people. As part of its policy to solve the problem, facilities-oriented policy for the aged has been so far emphasized.
Looking back, aged people held in the facilities cover only 0.03% of the total aged people over the age of 65, while almost 75% of the total welfare budget for the aged people in the government is used for the aged in the facilities.
With this in mind, this study is intended to survey social welfare policy for the aged at home, not for the aged in the facilities in our country, with focus on the effective use of welfare budget for the aged people, the welfare policy, and several service programs for the aged people such as health service program, social service program and housing service program on the basis of universality for the citizenship of the aged people.
