摘要:

Evidence suggests patients will follow through with self‐care more readily and will cope with the stress of illness and disability better when they feel their needs are understood. This descriptive study identified the perceptions of rehabilitation patients (N = 26) and nurses (N = 26) of the most and least important nurse caring behaviors. Using the Caring Assessment Report Evaluation Q‐Sort (CAREQ), both patients and nurses ranked as the most important item “knows when to call the doctor” and “monitors and follows through” as the most important subscale. Demonstrated competency of skills and accessibility preceded the patient's need for a trusting relationship and comfort, which was different from what the nurses predicted. Results differ from other professional nurses' perceptions of important nurse caring behaviors, but are similar to other studies of hospitalized patients' perceptions of caring. The greatest implication for practice is for nurses to validate the effect their intended caring had on the

摘要:

This study's purpose was to test the methodology and instrument that was developed to investigate the evolving relationship between the severely physically disabled adult (attendee) and his or her personal care attendant (PCA). PCAs were identified as the single most important factor in helping disabled persons achieve independence. The study employed the case study method. Subjects were four matched pairs consisting of a PCA and their severely disabled adult attendee. Conclusions from the study were (1) a successful relationship was defined by both the attendant and attendee as one that was satisfying and balanced by friendship and work productivity, and (2) categories of salient variables affecting the relationship were interpersonal, intrapersonal, technical, and informational in nature.

摘要:

The purpose of the study was to obtain an objective description of subjective symptoms and changes associated with the protracted alcohol abstinence syndrome as measured by the Body/Behavioral Experiences (BBE) Inventory. Body experiences include symptoms and changes attributed to the nervous, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal systems. Behavioral experiences include cognitive, perceptual, affective, and psychomotor responses. The hypothesis that BBE would vary in occurrence and frequency was supported. Mean percentage of subjects (males = 53; females = 48) reporting occurrence of body experiences (48.51) was lower than those reporting behavioral experiences (59.56) as was mean frequency of total experiences (2.16; 2.20). Women reported more experiences than men. The second hypothesis that greater frequency and occurrence of BBE will be related to higher scores on an alcohol dependence (AD) measure was also supported (Pearson r = .41, p ff .001). Findings are important in the practice of rehabilitation nursing and can be used to inform clients and their families of common BBE associated with early recovery.
