Abstract

Objective: This study was planned with the aim of determining the clinical characteristics of patients served by the Bolu Home Health Care Services (HHCS), their reasons for making use of home health care services, and the distribution of care. Method: The sample of this descriptive study consisted of 386 patients to whom service was being provided by Bolu HHCS. A Patient Information Form created by the researchers by examining the relevant literature was used to collect data. Numbers, percentages and mean distributions were used in the analysis of data. Results: The mean age of the individuals receiving HHCS who participated in the study was 61.6+10.4 years; a majority were female; 50.8% were married and 78.0% lived with their families, and for 70%, their children had applied to HHCS. It was found that most of the patients (96.1%) were satisfied with the home care services, 97.6% had no expectations beyond the current services, 80.1% had a chronic illness, with circulatory system diseases the most common; they most often made use of physical examination, blood collection and wound dressing services, and most were old and dependent patients. Conclusion: It was seen in the light of the results of the study that it is important to plan home health care services especially for dependent and semi-dependent old people, to develop protective health services relating to the risks of early stage stroke and cardiovascular disease, and to improve rehabilitation services.

Özet

Amaç: Bu araştırma, Bolu Evde Sağlık Hizmetleri (ESH) biriminde, hizmet kapsamına alınan hastaların klinik özellikleri, evde bakım hizmetinden yararlanma nedenleri ve hizmet dağılımlarının belirlenmesi amacıyla planlanmıştır. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı olarak planlanan bu araştırmanın örneklemini Bolu ESH biriminde hizmet verilen toplam 386 hasta oluşturmuştur. Veriler, araştırmacılar tarafından ilgili literatür incelenerek oluşturulan “Hasta Bilgi Formu” kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde sayı, yüzde ve ortalama dağılımları kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırmaya katılan ESH alan bireylerin yaş ortalamasının 61.6+10.4 yıl ve çoğunluğunun kadın olduğu, %50.8’inin evli ve %78.0’inin aile birlikte yaşadığı, %70’inin ESH’ne çocuklarının başvuru yaptığı saptanmıştır. Hastaların çoğunluğunun (%96.1) evde bakım hizmetlerinden memnun oldukları, mevcut hizmetlerin dışında beklentilerinin olmadığı (%97.6), çoğunluğunun kronik hastalığının olduğu (%80.1) ve dolaşım sistemi hastalıklarının ön planda olduğu, en fazla fizik muayene, kan alma ve pansuman hizmetinden yaralandıkları ve büyük çoğunluğunun yaşlı ve bağımlı hastalardan oluştuğu saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Araştırma sonuçları doğrultusunda ESH’nin özellikle bağımlı ve yarı bağımlı, yaşlı kişilere yönelik planlanması, erken dönemde inme ve kardiyovasküler hastalık risklerine ilişkin koruyucu sağlık hizmetlerinin geliştirilmesi ve rehabilitasyon hizmetlerinin geliştirilmesinin önemli olduğu götürülmüştür.
