Abstract:Objective: To explore the status and influencing factors of care ability of family caregivers for the newly disabled elderly in hospital before discharge, and to provide basis for nursing staff to take pertinent intervention measures. Methods: Using the convenient sampling method, this study recruited 206 hospitalized newly disabled elderly patients and their caregivers from the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University and Taizhou Hospital Affiliated to Wenzhou Medical University from July 2017 to May 2018. General information questionnaire and family caregiver task inventory were used to investigate these participants. The influencing factors of caregivers' care ability including demographic sociological data, disease data and others were analyzed. Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis was used to explore the main influencing factors. Results: The total score of caregivers’ care ability was 15.0±6.8, with significant differences (P<0.05) compared with the Hong Kong norm. The results of multivariate linear stepwise regression analysis showed that the factors affecting the care ability of family caregivers mainly include the patients’ economic level, self-care ability on admission and the education level and average daily care time of the caregiver, accounting for 32% of the total variation of caregivers’ care ability. Conclusion: Family caregivers’ care ability for the hospitalized newly disabled elderly is at low level before discharge. Nursing staff should give particular guide to the caregivers for the disabled elderly with low self-care ability on admission and poor economic conditions, and also to the caregivers with low educational level and short care time.
