Kako svojci doživljajo odhod starostnikov v dom starejših občanov : diplomsko delo

Opačak, Maja (avtor), Lebar, Cecilija (mentor), Galof, Katarina (recenzent)

Uvod: Večanje števila starejših oseb, ki so nesamostojnosti pri izvajanju vsakodnevnih aktivnosti vodi do večjega števila odhodov v dom starejših občanov. Pri odločitvi za odhod v dom imajo veliko vlogo tudi svojci, kar jim nemalokrat predstavlja težko odločitev. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je raziskati proces oddaje svojca v dom starejših občanov – kako se svojci odločijo in kako doživljajo odhod starejših v institucijo. Zanimalo pa nas je tudi, kakšna je vloga institucije pri procesu oddaje svojca v dom starejših občanov. Metode dela: Izvedena je bila kvalitativna raziskava. Podatke smo zbirali s poglobljenimi intervjuji, ki smo jih izvedli s petimi svojci, ki so doživeli odhod bližnje osebe v dom starejših občanov. Intervjuvanje je potekalo od meseca maja 2019 do meseca januarja 2020. Sodelovanje je bilo prostovoljno in anonimno. Rezultati: V raziskavi je sodelovalo pet intervjuvancev, od tega so bile štiri osebe ženskega spola in ena moškega spola. Najmlajša oseba je bila stara 28 let, najstarejša pa 59 let. Iz analize je izšlo pet tem: razlogi za selitev v dom starejših občanov (zdravstveni razlogi, preobremenjenost svojcev), občutki ob selitvi (prijetni in neprijetni občutki), težave ob selitvi (komunikacija z zaposlenimi v domu starejših občanov, ekonomske težave), kaj jim je bilo v pomoč pri selitvi (iskanje informacij, sodelovanje z ustanovo) in občutki zdaj, ko je minilo nekaj časa (pozitivni in negativni občutki). Razprava in zaključek: Ugotovljeno je bilo, da se vsi težko soočajo z odhodom bližnjih v dom starejših občanov. Vključeni so izražali občutek sta strahu in žalosti. Največja težava je bila 24-urna skrb, tej so bile pridružene tudi zdravstvene težave, največkrat omenjena pa je bila demenca. Poleg demence so tu še druge zdravstvene težave, kot so nepokretnost in zavračanje hrane, vse to privede do potrebe po celodnevni oskrbi, ki pa obremenjuje že tako zaposlene svojce, posledično so bili tudi prisotni občutki krivde, da niso zmožni poskrbeti za bližnje. Zadevo olajša to, da je v današnjih časih zelo lahko najti informacije o pomembnih zadevah. Osebe so na koncu zadovoljne z odločitvijo, saj so starejši bolj vključeni v družbo, kot bi bili doma, in imajo zagotovljeno primerno zdravstveno oskrbo 24 ur.

Izvleček

Introduction: The increasing number of the older populations causes more and more people to move into nursing home due to their lack of independence in carrying out daily activities. Relatives also play an important role in the decision to go to nursing home, which is often a difficult decision for them. Purpose: The purpose of diploma work was to research process of departures of relatives into nursing home, how do relatives come to the conclusion and how do they feel about relatives moving into nursing home. We were also interested what the role of the institution in this process is. Methods: Data were collected through in-depth interviews with five relatives who experienced the departure of somebody close to them into nursing home. Interviewing took place from May 2019 to January 2020. The participation was voluntary and anonymous. Results: Five interviewees participated in the study, four of which were female and one male. The youngest person was 28 years old and the oldest was 59 years old. Five topics emerged from the analysis, namely reasons for moving to nursing home (health reasons, overburdening of relatives), feelings when moving (pleasant and unpleasant feelings), problems when moving (communication with nursing home employees, economic problems), what was helpful in the process of moving (seeking information, working with the institution) and feelings now that some time has passed (positive and negative feelings).Discussion and conclusion: It was found that everyone has a hard time coping with the departure of their loved ones to the nursing home. Most often, the expressed feelings are fear and sadness. The biggest problem was 24-hour care and health issues. There are also other health problems such as immobility and refusal to eat, all of which lead to the need for full-time care, which overloads the already employed relatives. Relatives consequently also felt feelings of guilt for not being able to take care of loved ones. The matter is facilitated by the fact that nowadays it is very easy to find information and be informed about important matters. In the end, people are happy with the decision, as the elderly are more involved in the society than they would be at home and are provided with adequate medical care 24 hours a day.
