OBJECTIVE
This study explores the ability of a culturally sensitive and case-based education intervention, Caregivers Like Me, to improve knowledge and attitudes regarding end-of-life (EOL) resources among Latino caregivers.
METHODS
A multicentered, cross-sectional study of Latino communities from different geographical regions and cultural backgrounds. An educational intervention was administered to family caregivers of Latino elders using a case-based video "telenovela" and pretest-posttest questionnaires.
RESULTS
Participants (N = 145) were mostly females (79%) with mean age of 56 ± 15 years. They reported active learning from intervention (91%) and high satisfaction (92%) with educational experience. Both caregiver stress self-awareness and willingness to accept professional help improved significantly from pretest to posttest.
CONCLUSION
A culturally sensitive educational intervention increased Latino caregivers' self-awareness about caregiver stress and the need to consider professional assistance for EOL care.
目的
本研究探讨一种具有文化敏感性且基于案例的教育干预措施“像我这样的照顾者”，能否提高拉丁裔照顾者对临终（EOL）资源的知识水平和态度。
方法
对来自不同地理区域和文化背景的拉丁裔社区进行多中心横断面研究。使用基于案例的视频“肥皂剧”以及前后测问卷，对拉丁裔老年人的家庭照顾者实施教育干预。
结果
参与者（N = 145）大多为女性（79%），平均年龄为56±15岁。他们报告称从干预中积极学习（91%），对教育体验满意度高（92%）。从测试前到测试后，照顾者压力自我意识和接受专业帮助的意愿均有显著改善。
结论
一种具有文化敏感性的教育干预提高了拉丁裔照顾者对照顾者压力的自我意识，以及对临终关怀考虑专业帮助的必要性的认识。
