ABSTRACT

Objectives: In connection with government projects, the Gwangju medical welfare social cooperative launched the “Visit Oral Health Education Activities” as part of the Gwangju+ Gwangsan Integrated Care Service Project in 2023. This study aims to analyze the improvement in oral health and the level of satisfaction following home-visiting oral health education. Methods: A total of 51 participants who had undergone home-visiting oral health education more than seven times and agreed to participate were eligible for interviews. The data were analyzed using SPSS software. Results: As a result of oral environment improvement and satisfaction with home-visiting oral health education, the average satisfaction scores were 4.67 for educator attitude, 4.46 for educational activities, 3.82 for oral health improvement, and 3.55 for self-management attitude improvement. Satisfaction with oral health improvement showed a positive correlation with educators’ work attitude, satisfaction with educational activities, and improvement in self-management attitude. Conclusions: To improve satisfaction with home-visiting oral health education, the development of various educational programs and standardization of educator work manuals are necessary.
