Informal Care and the Importance of Institutional Support in Alzheimer’s Disease: Caregivers’ Experience with Mavi Ev

Year 2021, Volume: 41 Issue: 2, 261 - 287, 31.12.2021

Abstract

Caring for patients with Alzheimer’s disease is a challenging process. Caring for Alzheimer’s patients results in physical, psychological, and economic burdens for caregivers. This has the potential to affect patients’ and care recipients’ quality of life. While many caregivers have difficulty accessing adequate information and support, they also remain reluctant to benefit from institutional support. Nonetheless, institutional support has become increasingly important for caregivers in terms of the sustainability of care, as the care process is long and exhausting. This study focuses on the experiences of caregivers receiving services from an adult daycare center that institutionally supports Alzheimer’s patients and their caregivers. The study aims to understand the effect of institutional support on the care process based on Andersen’s behavioral model of healthcare utilization. Embodying a qualitative method, the study benefits from thematically analyzing the data collected through faceto- face interviews made with 30 caregivers. The results from the study show caregivers to be satisfied with the institutional support and this support to contribute to meeting the respite they need most in care. Daycares are a new service in Turkey and are an alternative service model able to positively contribute to the informal care process.

Alzheimer Hastalığında İnformal Bakım Süreci ve Kurumsal Desteğin Önemi: Bakım Verenlerin Mavi Ev Deneyimi

Year 2021, Volume: 41 Issue: 2, 261 - 287, 31.12.2021

Abstract

Alzheimer hastalarının bakımı, karşılıklı yaşamların etkilendiği bir süreci içerir. Birçok aile yakınlarının bakımını sürdürürken üstlenilen bakım görevleri nedeniyle fiziksel, psikolojik veya ekonomik bir yük ile karşılaşmakta, bu durum hasta ve bakım alıcılarının yaşam kalitelerini olumsuz etkileyebilmektedir. Bakıcıların birçoğu hastalık hakkında yeterli bilgiye ve desteğe ulaşmakta sıkıntı çekerken kurumsal desteklerden faydalanma konusunda da çekimser kalmaktadır. Bakım sürecinin uzun ve yorucu olması nedeniyle bakımın sürdürebilirliği açısından bakıcıların kurumsal destek almaları giderek daha önemli hale gelmektedir. Bu çalışma, Alzheimer hastalığı olan bireylerin ve bakıcılarının kurumsal olarak desteklendiği bir gündüz bakım merkezinden hizmet alan bakıcıların deneyimlerine odaklanmakta ve kurumsal desteğin bakım sürecine olan etkisi, sağlık hizmetleri kullanımında Andersen’in davranışçı modelinden hareket ederek anlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Nitel bir yönteme sahip olan bu çalışmada 30 bakıcı ile görüşülmüş ve kurumsal desteğin bakım sürecinde nasıl bir değişim yarattığı sorgulanmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçları bakıcıların kurum desteğinden memnuniyet duydukları ve bu desteğin bakıcıların bakımda en çok ihtiyaç duydukları mola zamanının karşılanmasına katkı sağladığı yönündedir. Türkiye’de henüz yeni sayılabilecek bir hizmet olan gündüz bakımının informal bakım sürecine olumlu katkı sağlayabilecek alternatif bir hizmet modeli olduğu söylenebilir.
