ABSTRACT: Objective: To describe the family dynamics and the social support network for families of children with special needs of multiple, complex and continuous care. Methods: A descriptive study of a qualitative approach, carried out in Maringá - PR, having as theoretical and methodological reference the Calgary Model of Family Assessment (CMFA). Data was collected through semi-structured audio-video interviews, carried out in the homes, together with 11 family caregivers of 13 children. Results: Data is presented in the following categories: structural, developmental and functional evaluation, which show the changes in the family routine and the needs for the adjustment of the roles of its members, in order to better implement the care at home. Conclusions: Using the CMFA made it possible to identify and understand the composition, fragilities and potentialities of the family, as well as the relationships among its members and rearrangements to better enable care at home. This information favors interventions congruent with the needs of these families.

ABSTRACT Objective: To describe the challenges of family caregivers of children with special needs of multiple, complex and continuing care at home. Methods: Qualitative study based on the theoretical framework of the Patient and Family-Centerd Care (PFCC). We interviewed eleven family caregivers from 13 children enrolled in a special school in the Brazilian city of Maringá (PR). The data were subject to content analysis, thematic modality. Results: The main challenges identified are the lack of preparation for home care, the difficulty of access and follow-up in Primary Health Care services, and the difficulty of including the child in social interaction. However, caregivers react positively to these adversities. Conclusions and implications for practice: The nurses need the necessary training to transcend hospital technical care and to develop a care practice based on family-centerd care, considering this as a protagonist, including it in the process for the quality of life of these children.

Abstract BackgroundWith a rapidly aging population, the importance of promoting end-of-life care at home has been pointed out. Home-visit nurses play an important role as professionals in charge of home care, and pre- and post- bereavement care for bereaved families is included in home-visit nursing services. However, bereaved families are not always provided with care after bereavement in Japan. This present study aims to investigate the relationship between the provision rates of pre- and post-bereavement care for the patient family and the demographics of home-visit nurses through a survey of home-visit nurses, and to clarify the details of post-bereavement care and the reasons why the care is employed, exploratorily through a survey of the managers of home-visit nursing stations.MethodsA self-rating anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted with 2,400 facilities (including 2,200 facilities randomly selected from among the members of Home-Visit Nursing Stations of the National Nursing Business Association). For the analysis, simple aggregation was used and the statistical processing employed SPSS ver21.0.ResultsA total of 680 valid responses were analyzed. The mean length of home-visit nursing experience was 10.6 years and that of hospital nursing experience was 15.2 years. The provision rate of post-bereavement care was 90% or higher in most of the identified items, excluding “Provided continued support/life planning until the family fully recovers social life”. For the provision of post-bereavement care, most items exceeded 70%, but excluding “Provided continued support until the family fully recovers social life”, and “Involved in building a life after bereavement”.Compared to the participants with less than 5 years of home-visit nursing experience, those with 10 years or longer experience had statistically significantly higher rates of providing post-bereavement care in more than half of the identified items. Home-visit nursing facilities with 24-hour services had statistically significantly higher rates of providing care in more than half of the items of both of pre- and post-bereavement care, compared to the facilities without 24-hour services. About 70% of the managers think that bereaved families need follow-up, and visited the families as a post-bereavement care.

The demands of Prosperity Gospel Pentecostalism on the family and gender roles are many. The home is a space where the paradox of Prosperity Gospel Pentecostalism is lived out daily. In traditional Christianity, the family is supposed to be a small-scale replica of the church, where there is a father who serves as the priest, a mother who is his assistant, and a congregation, represented by children who need instruction and guidance. This chapter shows how Prosperity Gospel Pentecostalism shapes family dynamics and the logic they use to bridge their family reality to the religious ideal.

Individualised education programmes (IEP) will be practiced with children with special needs (CWSN) and their families. The main factor for IEP’s success is the participation of the family and also, their children. In this study, views and suggestions about participation of families of CWSN in their IEP processes are examined. The research is based on qualitative research. Five mothers and a grandmother with CWSN were participated; data are collected via semi-structured interview technique and analysed with inductive analysis technique. This research uncovers that the participants didn’t participate in their children’s diagnosis, assessment, settlement and follow-up processes, and they were not content with the assessment results. Also, the participants who didn’t participate in the IEP weren’t even aware of the legal obligation that they had to and their children’s IEP, they weren’t in cooperation with the teacher in that process, and teachers didn’t show the progress in the children to the families even if they recorded that. Keywords: Children with special needs (CWSN), family, individualised education programmes (IEP).

This study explored the day-to-day experiences of family members providing care at home for their dying loved one with HIV/AIDS. In-depth interviews with seven caregivers were analyzed using grounded theory qualitative methods. A conceptualization of the family caregiving experience portrays HIV/AIDS caregiving as an intense, emotional, and powerful experience filled with pride and enrichment, and conversely, with anger and disillusionment. Findings reflected a significant need for interventions designed to provide direct and effective support for family members caring for a loved one with HIV/AIDS.
