- W2154642904 abstract "Structure/Method/Design: This was a qualitative study of 100 patient care attendants in the Medicine Department at Mulago National Referral Hospital. Participants were recruited via simple random sampling in August 2014. Only one attendant per patient was included. Data was collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. Results were analyzed qualitatively to identify recurring themes. Written informed consent was sought from every participant and IRB approvals were obtained. Outcomes & Evaluation: Most of the participants were female, married, farmers and of youthful age. The services they provided focused on self-care deficits such as feeding, cleaning, and administering of drugs. Furthermore, most participants reported the attendants to be an imperative and suitable method to respond to patient needs. While serving as an attendant, each participant spends at least 120,000 Ugandan Shillings on transport, food and communication. Patients’ relatives generally provided funding. Almost all participants slept on the floor when serving as attendants and consumed food served by the hospital to the patients. The greatest challengesmentioned included the poor bedding and sanitation of the hospital. Most attendants were their family’s primary home caretaker and breadwinner, leaving the needs of family back home neglected. Going Forward: Interpretation: The need for a patient care attendant imposes a financial strain on patient families by providing an additional cost and often disposing a primary income earner. Limitations: There is no standardized instrument available to assess the lives of patient care attendants. However, existing literature and the study objectives were used to design a data collection instrument that was comprehensive and detailed. Strength: The study findings are a true representation of the participants’ views since data collection was exhaustively done until no new themes were generated. Funding: Western Connecticut Health Network. Danbury, Conecticut, USA. Abstract #: 02GMHE0010" @default.
