Abstract:
Objective: To compare the coping ability of family caregivers who participated
in the empowering programme and that of family caregivers who received standard care,
for three days during the patients’ treatment in the ICU.
Design: Two-group experimental research, with a pre-test and a post-test.
Methodology: The participants, 60 family caregivers of neurosurgical patients,
were equally divided into an experimental group and a control group. The data-collecting
instruments consisted of a family-empowering programme for family caregivers and a brief
COPE questionnaire. The data were analysed using Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and
Mann-Whitney U Test.
Results: After participating in the family-empowering programme, the experimental
group displayed signifcant improvement in their coping ability (p < 0.05). The experimental
group also showed signifcantly higher coping ability than the control group did (p < 0.05).
Participation in this programme gave the neurosurgical patients’ family caregivers signifcantly
improved ability to cope with the patients’ conditions.
Recommendations: It is suggested that this programme be applied by nurses to
providing care for neurosurgical patients from the beginning of their treatment, to help their
family caregivers cope more effciently with the situations facing their relatives in the ICU.
