Zusammenfassung: | The increasing growth of life expectancy in western societies brings along higher rates of chronic, limiting and invalidating diseases.
Amongst these services being offered to the dependent elder, the ATDOM program is intended to provide health support for elders at home.
The project was first developed to assess the health characteristics for patients included in ATDOM program.
To reach that objective a Descriptive study was developed. The study population were the 87 patients included in the ATDOM program at the Community Health Care Center of Castellar del Vallès.
Measurement instruments used for assessing some of the main variables were Barthel scale, Braden scale and Zarit test. NANDA classification was used to identify Nursing diagnoses.
Average age of our population was 82’90 years, 35’6% of them being male and 64’4% female. 98’9% of these patients reported having an identified caregiver. Average age of caregivers was 62’94, 82’6% being women.
21’8% of patients presented with severe or total dependence levels. 26’1% of caregivers reported being overloaded by caregiving burden. Only 1’4% had high risk of having bedsore.
Most prevailing nursing diagnoses were related to skin injury and difficulties with physical mobility as well as to lack of autonomy on daily living activities.
