Abstract

Dementia caregivers are responsible for the daily care and management of individuals who are among the most vulnerable to the serious consequences of COVID-19. This qualitative study explores the experience of Black dementia caregivers during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Nineteen Black dementia caregivers were recruited to participate in semi-structured focus groups held in April 2021. Four overarching themes were constructed during analysis: social isolation, decreased well-being, the good and bad of telehealth, and challenges fulfilling health care needs. The results indicate the experience of Black dementia caregivers overlaps with existing literature on the experiences of dementia caregivers of other races during COVID-19. These results can assist in addressing the specific needs and improving the experiences of dementia caregivers in current and future public health crises.

美国黑人痴呆症护理人员在COVID-19大流行期间的经验
痴呆症护理人员负责对最易受新冠肺炎严重后果影响的个人进行日常护理和管理。这项定性研究探讨了美国新冠肺炎大流行期间黑人痴呆症护理人员的经历。招募了19名黑人痴呆症护理人员参加2021年4月举行的半结构化焦点小组。在分析过程中构建了四个总体主题:社会孤立、幸福感下降、远程医疗的好与坏以及满足医疗保健需求的挑战。结果表明,黑人痴呆症护理人员的经历与现有文献中关于新冠肺炎期间其他种族痴呆症护理者经历的文献重叠。这些结果可以帮助解决痴呆症护理人员在当前和未来公共卫生危机中的具体需求并改善他们的体验。
