Abstract:   (668 Views)
Background and purpose: The covid-19 pandemic, with its wide spread, created major challenges for informal caregivers (family caregivers and health volunteers). The current study was conducted with the aim of determining the care burden of informal caregivers (family caregivers and health volunteers) in patients with covid-19.
Methods: The present study is a descriptive study that was conducted cross-sectional in the city of Mashhad in 2019. Informal caregivers (192 family caregivers, 192 health volunteers) of patients with covid-19 were included in the study using available sampling method. The research tool included demographic information checklist and Novak and Gast care burden questionnaire. The data was analyzed using IBM SPSS version 25 statistical software.
Results: The average care burden score in home caregivers and health volunteers was 80.63 ± 12.62 and 72.17 ± 16.71, respectively (p<0.05). There was a direct and significant correlation between the care burden scores of volunteer health and family caregivers with the number of days caring for patients and hours of care per day (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The burden of care in family caregivers is higher than that of health volunteers, which can have negative effects on their health and well-being. Caring burden can cause physical and psychological complications for informal caregivers, especially family caregivers, which is important for health policymakers to pay attention to.
