Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Public policy is written on the expectation that family members especially will care for each other. These are estimates in the research done by AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving. This report does not highlight the number of caregivers for military individuals. Definition of caregivers is providing care within the last 12 months to and adult or child. Numbers are different than AARP/NAC study for the following reasons: -does not include caregivers of children under 18 -Stricter criteria of who is a caregiver -count number of caregivers in a household-Rand only looked at households -AARP/NAC study includes caregivers who were a caregiver in last 12 months; RAND study is only of current caregivers Please note that there wasn’t one source for me to use on obtaining caregiver numbers. What is important to know is that family members provide care and that there are a lot of caregivers. Many individuals will have the opportunity to be a caregiver more than once in their life. Caring for a parent or sibling Caring for a spouse or significant other who is ill or disabled Caring for an individual with a disability Caring for someone who had surgery or short term illness All of these people are a caregiver because at some time in their life the individual had a relationship with the person they are caring for…
  2. This is the slide where the results of the voting is shown— Correct answer is C
  3. Caregiving can range from helping to mow the lawn to 24/7 care. So when reading research or reports look at their definition Caregiver types—military, had military experience, older, disease or condition specific Look at who has funded the research as it may have a slant to their findings. I’m not saying the research is flawed its just that you need to be aware of what the organization’s biases might be One would think you could look at the different caregiver research to gain a better pictures of today’s caregiver. An example of this is the area of stress. It is common knowledge and agreed upon that caregivers experience stress. But how does the research define stress? What scale or tool did they use to measure stress? What stress self reported? I suggest you look for commonalities between studies and then at the unique data that the research has discovered or reported on. If working with a specific group of caregivers it is critical to see if there is research specific to that audience. An example is the caregiving of someone with dementia can be different than caring for someone who suffers with Parkinson, or a 20 year old who is an amputee. Be cautious to look at references of articles, reports, and even webinars to see the references used in the educational resource. Be cautious if a commercial enterprise is involved as it may be promoting a product or service.
  4. Another easy question as its probably pretty obvious that all the factors listed will impact caregiving by either creating stress or joys for the caregiver. Let’s discuss each factor a little. Condition/illness of care receiver-this seem obvious as some conditions and illness may be more difficult than other. Caregivers who are caring for someone with a cognitive impairment experience more stress as it is often a 24/7 job compared to caring for other illnesses. Caregivers need education on the conditions/illnesses they are caring for. 6 in 10 caregiver’s today are doing medical/nursing tasks that were formally done by nurses. They are also sent home with medical equipment that use to be used only in hospitals are another medical setting. B. Where caregiver lives (with, close by or long distance)- Spouses typically live with the care receiver Children or other relatives live in their own home Long distance caring typically defined as being more than an hour away can add logistical and emotional stress to the caregiver. C. Urban versus rural settings Rural area caregivers face unique challenges. There are typically less resources such as medical doctors, medical facilities, support services such as respite, educational classes, transportation, weather problems in winter, geographic distance and isolation. Culture Families bring to caregiving who they are such as their family ethnic background, traditions, and rituals. In some cultures there are expectations of who will provide care such as daughters & daughter-in-law's are expected to provide care. Relationship between caregiver and care receiver This seems obvious—if the caregiver didn’t have a good relationship with the care receiver its not going to get better. The relationship history between the two individuals influences carries into being a caregiver.
  5. Page 26 of book Even though this information is for wounded warriors other caregivers would probably report many of the same impacts. Confining means not being able to do things they can do with their free time such as seeing friends or visiting family Inconfenient Family adjustments Change from CR fromer self Feeling overwhelmed Behavior upsetting Changes in personal plans Emotional adjustments
  6. Only 16% of caregivers were asked what they needed as a caregiver. Professionals are more likely to ask a caregiver what they need if they provide over 21 hours of care a week or if they are caring for someone with complex care situations. A majority of the time professionals are focused on the care receiver. 84% of caregivers stated they could use more information on caregiving topics. *42% want information on keeping the CR safe and managing stress. *Caregivers who provide over 21 hours of care a week asked for information on managing challenging behaviors, dealing with incontinence and toileting problems. One caregiving topic that caregivers are needing assistance is with helping them do medical/nursing tasks—catheter, colostomy care, injections, tube feedings, wound care, and other complex medical conditions. *42% do tasks without any training and 14% received training—leaving us with 48% that get a little training or figure it out on their own. *Numbers are even higher for higher hour caregivers.

  14. Sometimes emotional health issues can lead to depression. Nearly forty percent of post 9/11 caregivers met the criteria for probably depression. This high rate of depression could be a result of the caregiver constantly trying to avoid triggers of anxiety or antisocial behaviors which find the caregiver needing to intervene and help the soldier or others cope with the situation. Their depression rate is two times higher than pre 9/11 caregivers and civilian caregivers. This group is four times higher than non-caregivers so when working with military caregivers it is imperative to discuss depression and encourage them to consult with their physician if they are experiencing any of the signs of being depressed. Caregivers with depression are at a higher risk for developing additional conditions such as type II diabetes, heart disease and Parkinson’s. Besides affecting the caregiver’s health depression has been found to have a “contagious” effect on others who the caregiver interacts with such as his/her children and their service member.

  15. Caregivers experience: Being reconnected-Sometimes caregiving provides an opportunity for the caregiver and care receiver to reconnect and share past memories of time they have spent together. Satisfaction-gain satisfaction from knowing they are giving back or helping Joy-some individuals like to provide care and enjoy helping others in need Meaning & purpose-caregiving provides meaning and purpose to some individuals. In fact often caregivers become a caregiver to others after they have lost the person they were caring for Grow closer to care receiver-often happens, especially for adult children caring for parents-they had been apart for many years and caregiving provides time for them to get to know each other again Enjoy spending time care receiver-this is especially true for spouses as they enjoy being with their spouse and spending time together. Give back to care receiver-some adult children feel they are giving back to their parents for the sacrifices they made raising them.
  16. This slide makes it obvious to see that post 9/11 military caregivers are much more likely to use support services and resources compared to pre 9/11 and civilian caregivers. You may recall post 9/11 caregivers are the group who have the least amount of support from family and friends. This is a key fact to keep in mind when working with military caregivers. Let’s review each of the caregiver supports so you understand what each of them provide. Respite are programs that provide care for the service members so the caregiver can have a short term break from caregiving. Advocate-category is patient advocate or case manager. Someone who coordinates care or serves as a liaison for the service member and service providers. Helping hand-Services that provide help the caregiver such as a loan, transportation, housing or personal care Financial stipend-paying a caregiver for being a caregiver or loss of wages due to caregiving Support Group-titled as structure social support and includes both on-line and f-n-person support groups Religious support includes religious or spiritual based guidance or counseling Wellness activities (structured wellness activities) includes organized fitness classes or stress relief lessons that focus on mental and physical well being Education-(structured education or training)—in-person or online classes, modules, webinars, workbooks that is a formalized curriculum rather than a one time program that relates to being a caregiver. Other highlights is civilian caregivers are more likely to use respite care Rand study page 20 for definitions and page 109 for graph data
