Family caregivers enable patients to be cared for and die at home whereas nurses aim to support the family caregivers of these patients. Information on how this support is provided and how this is documented in nursing files is largely lacking.
To gain insight in nurses' reports on the supportive care for family caregivers.
We studied 59 nursing files of adult patients who had received hospice home care in the Netherlands from 4 home care organisations between August 2017 and October 2018. Information on supportive nursing care for family caregivers was retrieved from the nursing files based on a prestructured form. Data was quantitatively and qualitatively analysed.
54 out of 59 nursing files contained information about family caregivers; 40 files contained nursing diagnoses on family caregivers and in 26 files nursing interventions on supportive care for family caregivers were reported.
Only half of the nursing files contained information about supportive nursing care for family caregivers. Complete nursing documentation of provided care to family caregivers is needed.
家庭护理员使患者能够在家中得到照顾和离世，而护士的目的则是为这些患者的家庭护理员提供支持。关于如何提供这种支持以及如何在护理档案中记录的信息在很大程度上是缺乏的。
深入了解护士对家庭护理员的支持性护理的报告。
我们研究了 59 份护理档案，这些档案来自荷兰的 4 个家庭护理机构，涉及在 2017 年 8 月至 2018 年 10 月期间接受临终关怀家庭护理的成年患者。根据一个结构化的表格，从护理档案中检索有关家庭护理员支持性护理的信息。对数据进行了定量和定性分析。
59 份护理档案中有 54 份包含有关家庭护理员的信息；40 份档案包含了对家庭护理员的护理诊断，在 26 份档案中报告了对家庭护理员支持性护理的护理干预措施。
只有一半的护理档案包含有关家庭护理员支持性护理的信息。需要对提供给家庭护理员的护理进行完整的护理记录。
