Family Support For Members in Taking Care of Mental Disordered Patients

Abstract

Problems with the care process of people with mental disorders by family caregivers never lead to concrete solutions. Family support is one of the determinants of the successful recovery of a patient's condition because it reflects the family's efforts in accompanying patients undergoing their daily lives. This study aims to determine various factors that correlate with the support of family caregiver for family members suffering from mental disorders. Families who accompanied the patients while undergoing outpatient care were sampled, totaling 144, determined using a non probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling method. The results showed the majority of family support for sufferers is still lacking, there is a relationship of age, level of education, knowledge and work status with family support but there is no correlation between sex caregiver with support provided by the family. It is recommended that families pay more attention to sufferers in biological, psychological, social and spiritual aspects.

Correlation of Family Support and Family Resilience With DHF Prevention Behavior in Older Adults

“…Instrumental support is support in which the family is expected to facilitate all the needs of family members, be it biological, psychological, social, or spiritual. Biological needs are basic needs, as well as material needs that must be met (26). Emotional support, information, and appreciation remain components that cannot be separated because these three components of support strengthen how the family supports older adults in carrying out their role in preventing themselves from the potential for DHF transmission.…”

Modern Family Towards Support for People Experiencing Mental Disorders

“…Zaspokojenie tej potrzeby -jak zauważają Kusumawaty, Surahmat, Martini i Muliyadi (2021) -jest czynnikiem, który w istotny sposób może zmienić trajektorię choroby i zdecydować o ewentualnym sukcesie w powrocie do pełni sił. Jak podkreślają, istnieje silna korelacja pomiędzy siłami pacjenta do przeżycia i wytrwania w procesie leczenia a siłą wsparcia otrzymywaną przez chorego od rodziny (Kusumawaty i in., 2021). W związku z tym zrozumienie, w jaki sposób rodzina oddziałuje na proces zdrowienia, wydaje się niezwykle istotną kwestią.…”

“…np. Kusumawaty i in., 2021;Pernice-Duca, 2010) -nadal mamy ograniczoną wiedzę, jakie znaczenie mają interakcje i relacje w rodzinie dla pacjenta i jego zdrowia. Z badań Kate, Grovera, Kulhary i Nehry (2013) wynika, że najczęstsze rodzaje wsparcia udzielanego chorym są następujące: wsparcie emocjonalne, informacyjne, instrumentalne oraz poprzez uznanie.…”
