The role of nurse and family members in discharging of immobile patiens
PŘIBYLOVÁ, Radka
This thesis deals with immobile patients´ defecation. Even though people feel ashamed to speak about this delicate and intimate problem it should be concerned with. Healthy diet, drinking regime, exercises adequate to patient´s age and fitness, stress elimination and defecation reflex training seem to be the best prevention to the problem as the laxative treatment of subsequent complications is less suitable. The research survey was firstly aimed at mapping the role of nurses who take care of immobile patients´ defecation and the obstacles they face and secondly, at the role of family members and the financial means which they are able to spend on such care. The findings of the research survey fully result from the interviews with six nurses working at the long-stay ward and six family members of the patients staying at the long-stay ward of the Hospital in Jindřichův Hradec,a.s.. At the same time six patients of this ward were observed. The charge nurse provided the permit to do the research and the ward sister was informed orally. The analysis of research findings led to making up an information leaflet which instructs patients in keeping healthy diet so that they can avoid defecation problems. The research survey findings will be offered to the staff of the hospital long-stay ward where the survey was run to help them improve the care of immobile patients.
