Abstract The aging society presents a growing demand for formal and informal caregivers.

The intervention pivots on the Body-Mind-Sprit model, a health model rooted in Chinese traditional philosophies and integrating three components into an inseparable unity.

Fatal and non-fatal drowning is a significant public health issue, which disproportionately impacts children and young people. In Australia, the highest fatal and non-fatal drowning rates occur in children under five years of age. To date, little qualitative research has been conducted on non-fatal drowning, with causal factor analysis generally conducted using coronial and hospital data. This study’s aim was to identify causal factors in hospital treated cases of non-fatal drowning in children as qualitatively self-reported by parents and caregivers.

There used to be a gap between ideal and actual condition in the pattern of parenting at Panti Sosial Asuhan Anak (PSAA) Putra Utama 03 Ceger, an orphanage. The gap was caused by some factors namely the environment facilities, high levels of problematic behavior among adolescents, the system, insufficient number of caregivers, and cultural factors of parenting that have been going on for a long time in the orphanage. The gap could lead to learned helplessness of the caregivers in parenting pattern on children at the orphanage. A team was formed to create an intervention through community servi

128 Background: Decreased oral intake is very common at the end of life. Dehydration can aggravate symptoms like fatigue, myoclonus, and confusion. Intravenous (iv) hydration at home can be uncomfortable and expensive. Hypodermoclysis (HDC) is a comfortable and inexpensive but rarely used way to provide hydration at the end of life in the home setting. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a program of HDC at home by the caregivers. Methods: All caregivers underwent a 45 minute training session on HDC administration and assessment of infusion site delivered by a specially trained nurse. Ca

Abstract. The MultiTANDEM system trains management staff at outpatient nursing facilities to be TANDEM trainers (i.e., multiplicators for social-skills training) of professional and family caregivers for people with dementia. We used a pre-post-1-post-2 follow-up design to evaluate intervention and implementation success. Results showed a significant increase in the communication skills of caregivers and a significant reduction in family caregiver burden. Analyses of the implementation showed high acceptability among multiplicators and a high penetration of TANDEM trainings among their fellow
