Abstract

Most long-term care for older adults in the United States is provided by informal caregivers (Ahmad, 2012), the majority of whom experience an intense range of emotions from satisfaction to loneliness. Counselors must consider this emerging population of caretakers and learn methods to encourage clinical services to address their need for support. This article delineates experiences and challenges of informal caregivers and provides suggestions for effective clinical services for caregiver populations.

照顾照顾者:了解对照顾者支持的需求

在美国，大多数老年人的长期护理都是由非正式的护理人员提供的(Ahmad, 2012)，他们中的大多数人都经历着从满足到孤独的强烈情绪。辅导员必须考虑这一新兴人群的照顾和学习方法，鼓励临床服务，以解决他们的需要支持。本文描述了非正式护理人员的经验和挑战，并为护理人员群体提供了有效的临床服务建议。
