本研究的目的是深入描述19名韩国家庭照顾者在决定将痴呆症家庭成员安置在韩国长期护理机构时的经验。共有656个主题(描述性声明)被确定为17个主题,使用Luborsky的方法进行专题分析。这些主题被归纳为四种模式:(a)感到筋疲力尽;(B)深深的悲伤;(c)破裂的关系;(d)忧虑。这些发现增强了医疗保健专业人员和公众更充分地了解不同文化背景下的体验的能力。研究结果有助于理解一个从儒家传统社会向西方社会过渡的国家的家庭生活经历。© 2004 Wiley Periodicals,Inc. Res Nurs Health 27:345-356,2004
The purpose of this study was to provide an in‐depth description of 19 Korean family caregivers' experiences in making the decision to place a family member with dementia in a Korean long‐term care facility. A total of 656 themes (descriptive statements) were identified and synthesized into 17 topics using Luborsky's method for thematic analysis. The topics were synthesized into four patterns: (a) feeling exhausted; (b) deep sorrow; (c) fractured relationships; and (d) apprehension. The findings enhance the capacity of health care professionals and the public to understand more fully, how caregiving experiences differ by cultural context. The findings contribute to understanding family caregiving experiences in a country in transition from a traditional society based on Confucianism to a Westernized society. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
