Volunteer stress and coping in HIV and AIDS home-based careMoremi, Mosa Zephorah 02 1900 (has links)
Volunteer caregivers provide essential services to people in the terminal stages of AIDS and their families. Volunteers are exposed to stress and burnout. This study investigated the relationships between stress, coping strategies, levels of burnout and resilience in this population. Volunteers from Societas ‘O Sosiale (SOS) Children Villages and community based organisation (CBO) partnerships, were selected using non-probability purposive convenience sampling. A total of 110 participants were given the Experience of Work and Life Circumstances Questionnaire (WLQ), Brief-Cope, Maslach’s Burnout Inventory (MBI), a Resilience scale and the Living Standard Measure to complete. Statistical analyses were performed on the data. This includes descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, factor analysis, correlations and multivariate analysis of variance. The study found that volunteer caregivers experience high stress levels and burnout related to stressors outside work, remuneration, personnel policies and high resilience. High burnout is associated with all forms of coping. Further it is shown that training in problem-solving skills, counselling, government and public lobbying for support, registration with relevant professional bodies, furnished offices, reasonable recruitment requirements and compensation are needed to help the care givers avert the effect of stressors and control stress by stopping it from turning to burnout. / Psychology / M.A. (Psychology - Research Consultation)

Caring behaviours : the perceptions of first and fourth year nursing studentsCrafford, Ilse 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2014. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Educators across the health professions are now concerned with the teaching and assessment of professional skills. Caring behaviour is one of the attributes of professionalism in the health sciences professions and in the nursing profession it is regarded as the essence of the profession. The aim of this study is to explore the understandings and experiences of caring behaviours of first- and fourth year nursing students and how they would like to be assessed about their caring behaviours in a curriculum where it is not overtly taught. This will be investigated according to Watson’s carative factors and theoretical framework of caring, while Bloom’s Taxonomy of the affective learning domain will also be consulted. The design of the study is qualitative and explorative. A purposive sample was drawn from first-year nursing students (n=64), and fourth-year nursing students (n=41) at one nursing education institution. The sample of students (n=105) from seven (7) private training hospitals in the Western Cape participated in nine (9) focus group interviews (n=10-15). Data analysis was done by means of a framework analysis approach with a deductive strategy. Research findings from this study are extensively discussed and will be used to inform the undergraduate nursing curricula in South Africa about the profiles of caring nursing students and to make recommendations about the internalisation of caring behaviours, according to the affective learning domain. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Opvoeders vanuit die verskeie gesondheidsberoepe, is tans met die leer en assessering van professionele vaardighede gemoeid. Sorgsame gedrag is een kenmerk van professionalisme in die gesondheidsberoepe. In verpleegkunde word sorgsame gedrag as die kern van die beroep beskou. Die doel van hierdie studie is om die begrip en ervarings van eerste- en vierde-jaar verpleegkunde studente rondom sorgsame gedrag te ondersoek. ʼn Verdere doel is om te bepaal hoe hierdie studente graag geassesseer wil word oor hul sorgsame gedrag in ʼn kurrikulum waar hierdie kenmerk nie pertinent geleer word nie. Watson se sorgsaamheidsfaktore en teoretiese raamwerk oor sorgsaamheid, sal gebruik word om die onderwerp na te vors. Bloom se Taksonomie van die affektiewe leergebied sal gesamentlik met Watson gebruik word as teoretiese grondslag vir die navorsing. Die studie-ontwerp is kwalitatief en verkennend. ʼn Doelbewuste seleksie is gedoen om spesifieke eerstejaar verpleegkunde studente (n=64) en vierdejaar verpleegkunde studente (n=41) by die navorsing te betrek. Die geselekteerde studente (n=105) van sewe (7) private opleidingshospitale in die Wes-Kaap, het aan nege (9) fokusgroep onderhoude deelgeneem (n=10-15). Die data-analise is deur middel van ʼn raamwerk-analise benader en ʼn deduktiewe strategie is gebruik. Die resultate van hierdie navorsing word omvattend bespreek en sal gebruik word ten doel voorgraadse verpleegkunde kurrikula in Suid-Afrika te informeer rakende die sorgsaamheidsprofiel van verpleegkunde studente. Aanbevelings, volgens die affektiewe leergebied, word ook gemaak oor hoe sorgsame gedrag geïnternaliseer kan word.

Fundamentos bíblico-teológicos da capelania hospitalar : uma contribuição para o cuidado integral da pessoaDaniel Hoepfner 29 February 2008 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / O cuidado pastoral, em meio ao contexto, hospitalar recebe o nome de capelania hospitalar.
Os três primeiros capítulos do trabalho apresentam uma reflexão em torno de temáticas
apresentadas como fundamentos bíblico-teológicos da capelania hospitalar. O primeiro
elucida o conceito cuidar, o significado dessa atitude e sua importância para com a própria
vida humana e busca relacionar a atitude do cuidar com o tema da dignidade humana
fundamentada a partir da teologia da imago Dei, conforme Gênesis 1.26-27. A segunda parte
do trabalho apresenta o ser humano à luz da antropologia bíblica, a partir dos conceitos
alma, coração, carne e corpo. Estas noções antropológicas apresentam o ser humano
em termos existenciais basicamente e como uma unidade viva animada por Deus. A terceira
parte apresenta as características da ação pastoral a partir do conceito poimênica. Esta
expressão remete à metáfora do pastorear o rebanho de Deus e fundamenta-se na imagem
bíblica do Deus-Pastor e do Cristo como sendo o Bom Pastor. Assim, o capítulo visa a
elucidar e conceituar, sobretudo, a partir da passagem bíblica de João 10, o ministério pastoral
de Cristo, bem como apresentar o ministério da poimênica como uma expressão da
comunidade cristã ao longo da história da Igreja. O quarto capítulo faz uma breve incursão
histórica em torno do hospital, busca fundamentar uma assistência hospitalar humanizada a
partir do tema da dignidade humana e aponta para a necessidade de cuidados integrais para
com a pessoa internada. Encerra-se o trabalho abordando o surgimento do treinamento em
clínica pastoral, seu contato com a psicologia e apresentando os conteúdos descritos nos
capítulos anteriores como fundamentos bíblico-teológicos da capelania hospitalar: a dignidade
humana, a antropologia bíblica e o ministério pastoral de Cristo. / Pastoral care in the context of hospital visiting is entitled hospital chaplaincy. The initial three
chapters of this paper analyze themes which are the biblical theological foundations of
hospital chaplaincy. The first deals with the concept of taking care, the meaning of this action
and its importance towards human life grounded on the theology of imago Dei, according to
Genesis1.26-27. The second part of the paper presents the human being based on the biblical
anthropology and the concepts of soul, heart, flesh and body. These anthropological notions
present the human being solely in terms of existence and as a live unit animated by God. The
third part describes the features of pastoral action related to the concept of pastoral care. The
term refers to the metaphor of pastoralising the herd of God and is founded by the biblical
image of God-shepherd and Christ as the good shepherd. Therefore, the chapter sheds light to
conceptualizing, mainly from John 10, the pastoral ministry of Christ, as well as it introduces
the pastoral care ministry as a means of expression of the Christian community along the
history of the Church. The fourth chapter is briefly developed under a historical perspective of
the hospital, it aims at grounding the hospital assistance as a human act from the theme of
human dignity. Moreover, it leads to the necessity of integral care to the patient. The paper
finishes by approaching the beginnings of Clinical Pastoral Training and its borders to
psychology, it also ends by presenting the contents which were described in the previous
chapters as biblical theological foundations of hospital chaplaincy: the human dignity, the
biblical anthropology and the pastoral ministry of Christ.

Pain management in people living with HIV in home based careMoremi, Lillian Serah 09 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to determine how pain in PLHIV on community home based care programme was managed using the Roy adaptation model (RAM) as the theoretical framework.
This study used a descriptive mixed method research design which allowed for the research topic to be investigated and described in terms of both narrative qualitative accounts and descriptive statistics. A sequential exploratory approach was adopted in which qualitative data collection was conducted in the initial phase followed by quantitative data collection. Ten qualitative interviews, guided by the components of the RAM were conducted in the initial phase and a structured interview schedule (questionnaire) partially based on the result of the qualitative phase and (which was also structured in accordance with the RAM) was administered to 120 respondents who met the inclusion criteria of being on CHBC. Convenience sampling was used to select study participants and respondents in both phases of the study.
Peripheral neuropathy was the most common pain syndrome experienced by patients. More females suffered numbness/tingling sensation of toes, followed by chest pains than their male counterparts. Pain experienced was moderate to severe which was not treated effectively.
The study findings could assist health care providers, policy makers and researchers to invest into improving pain management for PLHIV, strengthen education of patients and their primary caregivers on the causes of pain and modalities to employ for pain relief and implement palliative care guidelines for PLHIV. / Health Studies / D.

A practical theological study of community pastoral work : an ecosystemic perspectiveNel, Frederik Benjamin Odendal 06 1900 (has links)
Chapter 1 describes practical theology as a communicative operational science and stresses how important it is that a hermeneutical and narrative approach compliments it. It is shown that pastoral work must be launched from the church community. The premise is that the Enlightenment paradigm causes a reductionistic, individualistic and denominational approach to pastoral work. A holistic, comprehensive and ecologically orientated approach is proposed.
Chapter 2 discusses the need for an ecosystemic approach as a metaparadigrn for practical theology in terms of the move away
from the Newtonian view of science and the post-modem critiques of a technocratic society. This is supported by developments in systemic family therapy, constructionism and community psychology.
Chapter 3 describes an interrelated ecclesiology as a base theory for practical theology and pastoral work with reference to the church's interrelation with society and the need to include an anthropology as part of an ecclesiology. This interrelationship implies that the serving (diakonia) and caring (koinonia) functions of the church should converge, forming a diaconal pastorate.
In chapter 4 the secularised modem world-vie\v and the traditional African world-view, both functioning in South Africa, are employed to shed light upon the importance of the concept community for the church's pastoral work. The term community is broadened to include the idea of networking, emphasisingg that community is more than geographical proximity.
Chapter 5 is a quantitative investigation. by means of a questionnaire, of the views (ecosystemic/non-ecosystemic) of pastoral workers regarding the church and of pastoral work.
Chapter 6 discusses the implications of a community pastoral work approach. Pastoral work has a serving-caring role, but should also function prophetically, to conscientise. sensitise and empower people. The church as a healing community must become the springboard from which pastoral actions can face the challenge of AIDS (chapter 7). This will require the church to shift its paradigm from the reductionist, individualist approach, presently prevalent in society and church pastoral actions, to an all-encompassing. holistic one. / Practical Theology / Th.D.
