Abstract

This article highlights carers’ information-related work of caring for community-dwelling older adults living with dementia. Within an institutional ethnography method of inquiry, two sets of interviews with 13 carers and five paid dementia care staff map out the social organisation of carers’ information work. Carers’ information work is organised by timescales of past, present and future. Paid dementia care staff’s work reveals the broader institutional agendas that shape and constrain the ways that family caregivers experience their information work. As carers contend with information that is ‘fluid’ and ambiguous, differing supports are required to agentively support carers’ information needs.

(形成护理：在痴呆症护理的日常信息工作中协商紧张关系

本文重点介绍了照护者在照护居住在社区的老年痴呆症患者时与信息相关的工作。在机构人种学的调查方法中，对 13 名照护者和 5 名有偿痴呆症照护人员进行了两组访谈，描绘了照护者信息工作的社会组织。照护者的信息工作是按照过去、现在和未来的时间尺度来组织的。有偿痴呆症照护人员的工作揭示了更广泛的机构议程，这些议程塑造并限制了家庭照护者体验其信息工作的方式。由于照护者要面对的信息是 "流动的"、模糊的，因此需要不同的支持来积极支持照护者的信息需求。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
