Understanding caregiver needs for elderly stroke patients

Listed in ScienceDB

The aim of this study was to gain insights into the caregiving feelings and needs of primary caregivers of elderly stroke patients with a view to informing the enhancement of caregivers' physical and mental health and caregiving capacity.

Description

Through face-to-face semi-structured interviews with 19 caregivers in March-April 2024, we found that caregivers faced multiple pressures such as physical and mental burden, financial pressure, personality maladjustment, and changes in life patterns.

At the same time, some of the caregivers realized increased psychological resilience, health awareness, strengthened family bonds, and reshaped meaning of life in coping with the challenges. The study also revealed caregivers' diverse needs for tools, information, emotional and social support.The findings of this study point to the fact that despite the many challenges faced by caregivers, personal growth is also realized in the process of caregiving.
