“…However, available studies have shown that routine family-oriented interviews may increase perceived family function of young persons who receive medical care at a family medicine clinic in Nigeria. 22 A study from Malawi showed that because of the paucity of health workers, family members were often involved in providing hospital care for their patients. 23 In Lesotho and Mozambique, studies have shown that parents and other family caregivers were often left out of the care process because of frequent communication difficulties with health workers who treat their patients.…”

BackgroundFew studies in Africa have described patients’ perceptions about family-centred care (FCC).AimThe aim of this study was to explore perceptions of FCC among patients with chronic diseases.SettingThe study was conducted at a general outpatient clinic (GOPC) in Jos, north-central Nigeria.MethodsWe used a mixed-methods phenomenological study design and conducted structured and semi-structured interviews with 21 adult patients with chronic diseases at a general outpatient clinic in north-central Nigeria.ResultsPatients described FCC using progressive levels of family engagement including the doctor inquiring about history of similar disease in the family, information sharing with family members and fostering of family ties. They described current family involvement in their care as either inquiring about their health, accompanying them to the clinic or offering material or social support and health advice. Also, patients considered the value of FCC based on how it meets information needs of the family, influences individual health behaviour and addresses family dynamics. Those who were literate and older than 50 years of age favoured FCC during history taking. Those who were literate, aged lesser than 50 years and had poor disease control showed preference for FCC during treatment decision-making.ConclusionThe acceptability of FCC is a complex synthesis of age, socio-economic status, literacy and disease outcomes. Patients older than 50 years, with good treatment outcomes, and those without formal education may need further education and counselling on this approach to care.

“…En países como Nigeria, el desarrollo de un embarazo en edades tempranas se ve influenciado por el apoyo recibido de la familia, lo que a su vez se vincula con la calidad del funcionamiento familiar. De otra parte, cuando la relación madre-hija no es la adecuada por disfuncionalidad familiar, además de ser propenso el inicio de la vida sexual a edades más tempranas, se producen con mayor frecuencia embarazos y se hace necesario asumir la adaptación a su nuevo rol (11).…”

Introducción: El embarazo en la adolescencia tiende a presentar repercusiones personales, sociales, educativas y psicológicas en la madre y en el hijo. Es por ello por lo que el apoyo de la familia y su funcionalidad resultan cruciales. Objetivo: Determinar el nivel de funcionalidad familiar existente en las familias de las adolescentes gestantes asistentes a controles prenatales en tres instituciones de salud de Cartagena-Colombia durante 2021. Materiales y Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, de corte transversal, y asociación. La población estuvo constituida por 780 adolescentes gestantes que asisten a controles prenatales en dos instituciones. Se determinó una muestra de 185 adolescentes gestantes, seleccionadas mediante muestreo probabilístico. Fue aplicado instrumento sociodemográfico y APGAR familiar. Resultados: Las gestantes participaron de la institución A (50,81%) y de la institución B (44,32%), se trató de adolescentes bachilleres (58,92%), que conviven en unión libre (51,35%), en familias nucleares de origen (32,97%) y sus familias devengan ingresos entre 1 – 2 salarios mínimos (48,11%). El embarazo actual no fue planeado, y a los controles prenatales asisten con la mamá (31,35%), la pareja (27,57%) o solas (22,16%). La funcionalidad normal fue la más frecuente (99,46%), y se presentó asociación (p ≤ 0,05) con las instituciones, con la tipología familiar de naturaleza monoparental conformada y con el acompañamiento a los controles prenatales. Conclusión: Se determinó un nivel de funcionalidad familiar normal en las familias de las adolescentes gestantes asistentes a controles prenatales en dos instituciones de salud de Cartagena.

“…However, both SCREEM and APGAR have good validity and cross-cultural applicability, as reported in a Nigerian study and other studies. 15,16,17,18,19 The components of both APGAR and SCREEM were utilised as prompts during interview with our research participants. The SCREEM guided the exploration of the resources within the family while the APGAR guided the understanding of the relationship between the parental figures and the children on the streets of Ibadan.…”

Background: Children roaming the streets estimated at 1 in 10 by a 2021 United Nation Children’s Funds (UNICEF) report is a growing problem, in cities of lower- and middle-income African countries. Studies of street children with no family ties abound, but there is a paucity of studies on children on the street who exist within families and return home daily. We explored the family dynamics of children on the streets of Ibadan, emphasising family structure, resources and relationships.Methods: Using an exploratory design based on a qualitative approach 53 participants were interviewed, including children on the streets, parental figures, child-welfare officers and street shop owners. Participants were selected from streets in the five urban local government areas of Ibadan, Nigeria. Recorded data were transcribed, and framework analysis was performed.Results: The family dynamics included family structural problems, poor family resources and poor parent-child relationships. The family structural problems included: broken homes, large families and ambivalence around polygamy as subthemes. Family resources comprised: poor economic resources, poor social resources, educational challenges, cultural ambivalence and spiritual backdrops. The family relationships patterns included: poor adaptability, economic-oriented partnership, poor growth support, poor emotional connection and poor family bonding.Conclusion: The dynamics driving a family’s choice for child streetism in Ibadan, mostly to hawk, are devaluation of family life, parenting irresponsibility, and poor filial relationship, underscored by economic constraints and socio-cultural decadence. The results of this research buttress the need for family-level interventions to forestall the escalating phenomenon of child streetism in Ibadan, Nigeria.Contribution: This research highlights the family dynamics of children on the streets, and buttresses family-level interventions are necessary to forestall escalating child-streetism in Ibadan, Nigeria.
