ABSTRACT

Objective: To describe care competence and its association with overburden of caregivers of patients with chronic diseases. Method: Quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study, with a convenience sample. Three instruments were used for data collection: the GCPC-UN instrument for caregiver-patient characterization, the Homecare Skills Questionnaire (CUIDAR, as per its name in Spanish), and the Zarit Burden Interview. Participants in this study were 102 caregivers of people hospitalized in a health institution who met the inclusion criteria. Results: Caregivers were mainly women, had a low level of education, high burden (56.8%), and high level of care competence (68.6%). A statistically significant correlation was found between overburden and overall scores on the CUIDAR instrument, as well as with the following categories: knowledge, uniqueness and anticipation. Conclusion: Homecare competence is associated with overburden of caregivers of people with CNCDs. Therefore, nursing teams have to identify the needs of caregivers and take action so as to contribute to seamless transitions to patients' homes.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Objetivo Descrever a relação entre a competência do cuidar e a qualidade de vida do cuidador familiar da pessoa hospitalizada com doença crônica. Métodos Estudo quantitativo, descritivo, de correlação e corte transversal. Foi utilizada uma amostragem por conveniência. Participaram 102 cuidadores de pessoas hospitalizadas em uma instituição de saúde. Para a coleta de dados, foram utilizados três instrumentos: ficha de caracterização do par cuidador-pessoa com doença crônica, qualidade de vida do cuidador informal e competência para o cuidado no lar. Resultados Houve predomínio de cuidadores do sexo feminino (74,5%), percepção negativa do bem-estar social e espiritual e percepção positiva do bem-estar psicológico e físico. Foi encontrada uma correlação entre o bem-estar psicológico e o espiritual. As dimensões do instrumento competência para o cuidado no lar se correlacionaram com o bem-estar psicológico, social e espiritual da qualidade de vida, mas não se correlacionaram com o bem-estar físico. Conclusão Este estudo mostra que a feminização dos cuidadores persiste, assim como a dedicação por longos períodos de tempo ao cuidado da pessoa enferma, afetando o bem-estar social e espiritual da qualidade de vida. Nesse cenário, é importante manter altos escores nas diferentes dimensões do instrumento competência para o cuidado no lar para melhorar a qualidade de vida dos cuidadores e prevenir a sobrecarga.

Abstract Objective To describe the relationship between the quality of life of caregivers and their competence of caring for a person hospitalized with a chronic condition. Methods Quantitative, descriptive, correlation and cross-sectional study, with a convenience sample. Participants of this study were 102 caregivers of people hospitalized in a health institution, located in Neiva, Huila, Colombia. Three instruments were used for data collection: Caregiver-patient characterization survey, Caregiver's quality of life, and Homecare competency. Results Caregivers were mainly women (74.5%), with a negative perception of social and spiritual well-being, and a positive perception of psychological and physical well-being. A correlation was found between psychological and spiritual well-being. The dimensions of the Homecare competency instrument were related to the psychological, social, and spiritual well-being of quality of life, but they were not related to physical well-being. Conclusion This study shows that the feminization of caregivers persists, along with the dedication for long periods of time to the care of the sick person, thus affecting the social and spiritual well-being of quality of life. In face of this scenario, it is important to keep high scores in the different dimensions of the Homecare competency instrument to improve the quality of life of caregivers and prevent overload.

Material y método: Estudio analítico, descriptivo, correlacional, corte transversal, con 89 cuidadores. La información se recolectó mediante la utilización de los instrumentos: Ficha de caracterización de la díada, Inventario de Habilidad de Cuidado y la Escala de sobrecarga de Zarit. Resultados: Los cuidadores poseen bajo nivel de habilidades de cuidado (84,3%) y refieren ausencia de sobrecarga (70,8%).
