Narratives of challenge and motivation : the stories of East London Community Health Care volunteersNgconjana, Unati January 2017 (has links)
The research study was aimed at exploring the narratives of motivations and challenges that home-based health care workers experience in their voluntary service provision. It was conducted in East London in Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality. A total of seven participants who volunteer in home based care programmes were interviewed and their mean age was 30 years; all were females, two married, one a widow, one divorced and two single females. The narrative framework was used to explore the volunteers' interpretation of volunteering experiences, highlighting themes that emerged on what encourages them to volunteer as home based health care workers, and how they deal with challenges that arise during the provision of services. The research was also aimed at exploring the social factors supporting the volunteers' decision to continue volunteering. Narratives from the interviewed community health workers [CHWs] indicate that the motives for participating in CHW programmes are mainly altruistic although people are sometimes motivated by self-interest. Self-interest seems to be particularly relevant in the case of the younger volunteers as they expressed their hope that providing voluntary service may help to enhance their skills so as to facilitate future learning and employment prospects. The recurring themes within the CHWs' narrative indicate that they identify with the helping role and feel it empowers them as they participate in meaningful ways in their communities, and they gain strength to cope with challenges that come with community health work. This study highlighted the complex nature of home based care roles, which inevitably reflect the intervention approach, the mode of working, professional roles and relationships with communities.

Capacity building for home care in rural NamibiaLipinge, Scholastika Ndatinda 14 March 2012 (has links)
D.Cur. / Like in many countries, Namibia is experiencing social and economic health care problems related to care provision at state health facilities. The Namibian State has acknowledged that it can no more afford to provide care for all the sick people alone, especially at its health facilities. It is now calling upon the society to take up the responsibility of caring for their sick people at home. Although this call is genuine and necessary, one cannot help to always wonder about the expectations of stakeholders involved in home care provision in rural Namibia. The purpose of the study was to develop and describe a model for capacity building to facilitate quality home care in rural Namibia. To achieve this the following specific objectives were formulated: 1) to explore and describe the expectations of the stakeholders involved in home care situation in rural Northern Namibia; 2) to assess the status of available resources in relation to quality home care; 3) to analyse the concept capacity as a management process and conceptualise the whole study into existing theoretical frameworks to facilitate home care in rural Namibia and 4) to develop and describe practical guidelines for the implementation of the model. A qualitative case study design was used to carry out the study. Explorative, descriptive, theory generative and inductive strategies were utilised. Face to face interviews were conducted with thirty stakeholders in home care using an interview guide. Purposive and Snowballing/networking sampling were used to identify the stakeholders involved with home care. Observations were also made with regard to the status of the resources, its availability and accessibility to the stakeholders. From the empirical phase, various expectations were expressed related to resources, namely, physical structures, knowledgeable human resources, financial and logistics, information, safe water supply, transport and communication means, support systems and mechanisms at home and community levels, food and nutrition. It was clear that resources were lacking as well as the support systems for home care.

Self-perceived needs and nursing involvement with the elderley living at homeDonaghue, Shirley June, 1930 January 1973 (has links)
This study surveyed the self perceptions of thirty individuals over sixty-five years of age, who lived in the Vancouver Quadra electoral district, in order to gather information about their needs.
The study was designed to answer three questions. Do the elderly living at home in a specific geographical area of Vancouver perceive themselves as having needs in the need areas defined by the literature, namely housing, health, independent living, employment, economic security and interpersonal relations? Do the elderly in the selected sample perceive their needs as being met? Do the elderly in the selected sample perceive nurses as involved in helping them meet their needs? A semi-structured interview schedule was used to obtain information relevant to the research problem.
The results of this study indicated that more than half the respondents, or 53 per cent, perceived needs in the need areas defined by the literature. The majority of perceived needs, or 76 per cent, were not met. None of the elderly whose needs were met perceived nurses as involved in helping them meet these needs. Moreover, the majority of the study sample, or 87 per cent, did not perceive nurses as potentially helpful in assisting them to meet their needs.
The study recommends that nurses extend their current role and become actively involved in assessing and meeting
the needs of the elderly living at home. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Nursing, School of / Graduate
