"" T]his text is a truly amazing microanalytic compendium of
social support strategies in different family configurations, in
different context and ethnic groups, and filling different types of
needs."" --From the Foreword by Janice M. Morse, RN, PhD, FAAN
University of Utah
This book serves as an authoritative reference for health care
practitioners and researchers concerned with mobilizing support for
individuals caring for a disabled adult or child family member. The
authors integrate numerous types of research to provide a
comprehensive compendium of best practices for social support
within vulnerable populations. This book provides a wealth of
insight into the experience of family caregivers and describes the
importance of support.
Nurses, practitioners, researchers, and professionals will find
this book useful, as they provide care to patients, plan programs,
or develop policies intended to assist family caregivers. Armed
with this essential knowledge of the best methodological approaches
to family caregiving, readers will have both the insight and tools
to optimize caregiving across the range of hospices, treatment
facilities, and home care.
Key Highlights:
Information on supportive interactions, reciprocity, and the
obligations of social support Illustrative examples of the
supportive and nonsupportive interactions that real-life men and
women caregivers have experienced Discussions of social support
from the informal social networks of kin and friends Information on
social support within minority populations, including the elderly,
children, and immigrants
