Abstract

Despite the reported positive impact of informal personal care on the cared for, carers themselves experience a range of adverse health outcomes. In addition, Australian care policies primarily target the cared for, while the needs of carers tend to be disregarded. This article draws on data collected from 36 interviews with carers who were offered an opportunity to engage in a pilot training programme focused on enhancing opportunities. Viewed through the lens of self-determination theory, the training served as a stimulus in supporting carers’ psychological needs, demonstrating that more targeted, nuanced and meaningful supports are required to maintain carers’ motivation and well-being.

“作为一名护理人员，你会被遗忘！”：探索澳大利亚非正式初级护理人员的经历和机会

尽管据报道，非正式个人护理对被护理者产生了积极影响，但护理人员自己也经历了一系列不利的健康后果。此外，澳大利亚的护理政策主要针对被护理者，而护理人员的需求往往被忽视。这篇文章引用了从36次对护理人员的采访中收集的数据，这些护理人员有机会参加一项旨在增加机会的试点培训计划。从自决理论的角度来看，培训在支持护理人员的心理需求方面起到了刺激作用，表明需要更具针对性、细微差别和有意义的支持来维持护理人员的动机和幸福感。

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.
