Het is bekend dat deze maatregelen nadelige neveneffecten hadden, zoals sociaal isolement en toegenomen kwetsbaarheid onder ouderen. Er is echter weinig bekend over de gevolgen van COVID-19 maatregelen onder oudere migranten. We onderzochten hoe oudere Nederlandse thuiswonende migranten deze maatregelen ervaarden. Hiervoor werden semigestructureerde interviews afgenomen met 13 thuiswonende Nederlandse migranten in de leeftijd van 67-85 jaar. Er kwamen drie thema's naar voren: geuite emoties, gezond blijven en aanpassing aan de maatregelen. Deelnemers uitten gevoelens van boosheid, verdriet, isolatie en eenzaamheid, wat erop wees dat de preventieve maatregelen van de Nederlandse overheid niet pasten bij hun culturele tradities en verplichtingen. Ze waren afhankelijk van familieleden en werden beperkt door taalbarrières. De deelnemers meldden minimale achteruitgang in hun fysieke en psychologische gezondheid. In overeenstemming met de bevindingen van onderzoek onder Nederlandse ouderen, beïnvloedden de maatregelen voornamelijk hun sociale leven. Ze ontwikkelden verschillende strategieën, zoals meer telefoon- en videogesprekken en alternatieven voor bewegen. Onze resultaten kunnen bijdragen aan de ontwikkeling van strategieën om migranten te beschermen tegen de negatieve gevolgen van beperkende maatregelen in een toekomstige pandemie.","PeriodicalId":39945,"journal":{"name":"Tijdschrift voor Gerontologie en Geriatrie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140253132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to map out users' (family caregivers and healthcare professionals) preferences regarding the look and feel, and content of the booklet. To this end, in addition to the current paper booklet, we created a prototype website and app, along with three illustration options. Twenty-one family caregivers and nineteen healthcare professionals completed a questionnaire about their preferences. Open ended questions were analyzed using content analysis, multiple-choice questions using descriptive analysis. The participants valued the question-answer format. They perceived the text as too medically oriented and they expressed a need for more inclusive language and broader information. The participants found images of people suitable for the booklet and they preferred the illustrations to be less focused on the medical context. The participants preferred the paper booklet and a website. By understanding family caregivers' and healthcare professionals' preferences, in the second revision, the booklet can be tailored to the user.
