Purpose: This study aimed to derive meaningful implications by comparing and analyzing community-based programs, such as the Public Health Center Home Visiting Health Care Program, which serve as key initiatives for the prevention and management of frailty among older adults. Methods: We used a domestic search engine to input keywords such as ‘aging’, ‘weakness’, ‘home health care’, ‘home nursing’, and ‘care services’, and collected and analyzed the searched data. Results: Various programs addressing physical activity, nutrition, social participation, cognitive health, and depression management are currently operated by public health centers, local governments, and the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS). Among these, the Public Health Center Home Visiting Health Care Program plays a central role in frailty management through direct visits by nurses to the homes and facilities of older adults, contributing to the promotion of healthy aging and the prevention of long-term care dependency. Conclusion: To strengthen its impact, the program should be expanded beyond the current focus on low-income and vulnerable seniors to encompass the broader elderly population. Moreover, the development and dissemination of specialized frailty management interventions are essential. It is also recommended that training programs be established to enhance the case management competencies of multidisciplinary professionals involved in the program, enabling them to better address the integrated health and social care needs of older adults. Further research is warranted to assess the cost-effectiveness of community-based frailty prevention and management programs by developing measurable indicators that validate their outcomes and effectiveness.

In Korea, reliable and affordable individual health information is obtained through national health examinations, which can be actively utilized in community health services based on examination data. The purpose of this study is to analyze national health examination data in order to identify the health behavior and health status of the elderly, and to incorporate the examination results into home visiting healthcare services provided at health centers. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional survey that analyzed the national health examination data of 2018 using the National Health Insurance Service-National Health Information Database. Data analysis was conducted using the SAS program. The overall results of the health examinations were presented in terms of frequency and percentage. Results: The national health examination rate was 72.6%, and 97% of the examinees had health needs such as improving health behavior and managing diseases. It was found that 52.2% of patients had high blood pressure, followed by diabetes and dyslipidemia. The health data generated from the national health examination includes information relevant to home visiting healthcare services. Conclusion: By utilizing health data generated from national health examinations, the process of collecting data in home visiting healthcare services can be simplified. By focusing on providing customized services, it will be possible to increase the efficiency of home visiting healthcare services.
