| Abstract: | As the population age in Taiwan, patients suffering from dementia due to old age are increasing rapidly. Female caregivers play an important role in the long-term care division/area. Due to the special nature of dementia, female caregivers face many multifaceted dilemmas and burden, and the best way to help the caregivers deal with the dilemmas and burden would be unrelenting support from the society. This research uses qualitative methods to explore the burden female caregivers faces during the elderly dementia care process, and the impact of the primary caregivers burden, and the amount of support family participation has on the primary caregiver. Six cases are recorded from November to April, in the years of 103 to 104, from an organization somewhere in central Taiwan. After analysis and classification using the rounded Theory to analyze the data, the experiences of primary female caregivers faces is divided into three different categories. Female primary caregivers vs. encounters and change; what can the caregiver do vs. seek countermeasures and solutions; Sudden Impact vs. grow and reap/harvest. Analyzing the performance of support group by therapeutic factors developed by Yalom, the support groups benefit from therapeutic factors revealed as: “Catharsis”,“Universality ”,“ Imparting of Information”,“Existential factors ”,“ Development of Socializing”, “ Altruism” and “Group cohesiveness”.
In conclusion, this research allows practitioners to better understand the hardships a primary female caregiver can face when caring for elderly patient with dementia, and to be more understanding in the future, and also to give assistance and support in a timely manner. |
