Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to clarifying the psychological changes experienced by families of elderly persons with dementia who are enter an institution. Semi-structured interviews were conducted on 10 family caregivers residing in urban and rural settings. Data were qualitatively analyzed using a grounded theory approach. The results of the analysis were as follows : While families were suffering with the social norm of caring for parents, they became aware of the intimate relationship between parents and children. This experience changed the feelings of the family caregivers from a sense of guilt to gratitude for their parents. These findings suggest that it is necessary to support family caregivers to establish intimate relationships with their parents.
