| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The feelings of difficulty of family caregivers concerning excretion assistance for an elderly person requiring long-term care and experiencing incontinence after they started using diapers were classified into nine categories. The family caregivers considered urinary disturbance during the nighttime, cleaning after incontinence, and a high number of bathroom visits as difficulties, which were believed to originate from the elderly person’s urination status. Furthermore, the family caregivers also experienced their own trial and errors by imitating others and the physical burden when giving assistance, which were believed to originate from the caregivers’ lack of knowledge. Instructions by nurses on proper assistance methods after assessing the urination status of the elderly patient and family caregivers’ knowledge and skills are believed to be important.
