ABSTRACT

Unpaid carers, in the UK, are estimated to contribute 132 billion pounds to society, often at a cost to their own physical and mental wellbeing. Therefore, various governmental directives since 1995 have focused on recognizing the significant contribution made by carers by improving their involvement in services. Carer research within mental health has focused primarily on general mental health and acute settings. Relatively little is known about the experiences and needs of carers of forensic psychiatric inpatients currently using inpatient care. This qualitative study aimed to examine the experiences of this group and ascertain their needs. Four carers took part in a focus group and two carers were interviewed individually. Thematic analysis was used and identified four themes: navigating the mental health system, impact of caring, what helps? and experience of current inpatient forensic service. Findings suggest that some improvements have occurred over the past few years in support for carers and in service provision for their loved one’s treatment. However, more improvements are urgently needed because carers continue to experience emotional burden, feeling excluded by services, and strain from their caring responsibilities. Implications for future research and guidance for service providers and policymakers are discussed.

通过他们在精神卫生服务中的经验来确定法医精神病患者的护理人员的需求:服务提供者指南

摘要

据估计,在英国,无薪照料者为社会贡献了1,320亿英镑,而这通常会损害他们的身心健康。因此,自1995年以来,各种政府指令都集中在承认护老者通过改善其对服务的参与而做出的重大贡献。精神卫生方面的护老者研究主要集中在一般精神卫生和急性疾病方面。对于目前使用住院护理的法医精神病患者的护理人员的经验和需求知之甚少。这项定性研究旨在研究该小组的经验并确定他们的需求。四名护理人员参加了焦点小组讨论,并分别采访了两名护理人员。使用了主题分析,并确定了四个主题:导航精神卫生系统,关怀的影响,有什么帮助?以及目前住院法医服务的经验。研究结果表明,在过去几年中,在支持护理人员和为其亲人的待遇提供服务方面取得了一些进步。然而,由于护理人员继续承受情绪负担,服务所排斥的感觉并从其护理责任中拉伤,因此迫切需要更多的改进。讨论了对服务提供商和决策者未来研究和指导的意义。并从他们的关怀责任中解脱出来。讨论了对服务提供商和决策者未来研究和指导的意义。并从他们的关怀责任中解脱出来。讨论了对服务提供商和决策者未来研究和指导的意义。
