Child Caregiver

The quality of psychosocial care provided the young child is reflected in the caregiver's responsiveness, warmth and affection, involvement with the child, and encouragement of autonomy and exploration. First, research was examined linking the quality of psychosocial care to a child's development of mental abilities, and to his or her growth and nutrition status. There is considerable correlational evidence and some experimental evidence for this linkage. Second, the barriers to adequate psychosocial care were explored, including maternal beliefs and confidence, stress and depression, social support, and autonomy and control of resources. Third, a number of strategies to enhance psychosocial care as a mechanism for increasing the child's nutrition status are described, at the level of the child, the caregiver, the child-caregiver relationship, and the community. All of the work was interpreted in terms of an interactive or transactional model of child development.

The Given

While calling for culturally sensitive healthcare services in migrant communities, the international nursing literature on intercultural care predominantly describes nursing staff as lacking cultural competences and immigrant customers as lacking cleverness to navigate the labyrinths of national healthcare systems. Congruences in language, culture and religion in the customer-caregiver relationship can decisively improve the quality of care. However, they do not automatically guarantee smooth working processes in monocultural in-home settings. On the contrary, new problems occur here for Turkish caregivers which are unknown to the legions of native professionals who feel challenged by migrants and which go beyond differences such as age, sex, income or education. While no cultural or religious brokering is necessary between customers and personnel in the given context in Germany, new challenges arise when caregivers are expected to legally broker between customers and insurance companies or doctors. Conflicting expectations of customers and management as well as their own colliding social and professional roles put the caregivers in a quandary and must be competently managed.

The origins of attachment theory and the work of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth are described. Four types of child–parent attachment relationships—secure, insecure/anxious, insecure/ambivalent, and insecure/disorganized—are outlined along with the ways each type might manifest itself in the classroom. A longitudinal study, conducted by Alan Sroufe and his colleagues, of the development and effects on learning and interpersonal relationships of different child–parent attachment relationships is described. Teachers too have a history of attachment relationships that can affect how they relate to their students. The chapter describes adult attachment and how one’s attachment history might, positively or negatively, affect one’s ability to build positive, nurturing relationships with students. Specific examples of ways teachers can offset the negative effects of a student’s or their own history of insecure attachment are described.

Abstract Delirium — an acute disorder of attention and cognition — is a common, life-threatening and costly syndrome occurring frequently in older hospitalized persons. The unexpected, rapid, and volatile nature of delirium can be difficult for family caregivers to experience and may contribute to subjective feelings of distress (i.e. “delirium burden”). The aim of this study was to examine whether pre-admission patient characteristics or patient-caregiver relationship and living arrangements were associated with caregiver burden as measured by the delirium burden scale for caregivers (DEL-B-C; score 0-40, higher score is more burden). Our sample consisted of 208 older adults and their caregivers from the Better Assessment of Illness (BASIL) study, an ongoing prospective, observational study of surgical and medical patients ≥70 years old; 22% of patients experienced delirium by the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) and the average DEL-B-C score was 7.9, 95% CI(6.95-8.88). Results indicated that neither patient-caregiver relationship and living arrangement or patient factors including pre-admission pain, sleep disturbance, or new onset incontinence were significantly correlated with delirium-related caregiver burden. However, DEL-B-C scores were significantly higher in caregivers of patients with any ADL impairment (mean 8.5 vs. 5.2, p = .016) during hospitalization although none of the individual functional deficits alone were statistically significant. This finding suggests that the association of ADL impairment and DEL-B-C scores is not driven by a single functional domain. Future studies are needed to further understand how caregiver characteristics and patient factors occurring before and during hospitalization contribute to caregiver burden after the occurrence of delirium.
