Korea is one of the fastest aging countries in the world and will be a "graying society" with a 20% senior population by 2026. In order to satisfy the needs of the increasing number of seniors who are in need of long-term care, the Korean Government will implement a long-term care insurance policy in 2007 to provide long-term care facilities with the cost of management and labor. Several demonstration works have already been in effect since June of 2005. In 2011, by which time this policy is expected to settle completely, approximately 180,000 employees will be needed to provide services for chronically-ill elderly populations. Elderly care managers will be in high demand in this field of gerontology and will be in charge of managing long-term facilities and providing services for senior citizens and their families.
