To describe and understand the experience of Latin American migrant women as caregivers of elderly people in situations of advanced illness and end of life.
Qualitative study using Gadamer's hermeneutic phenomenology. Data were collected in 2019 through 9 semi-structured interviews with Latin American women caregivers, who had cared for people at the end of life, in the Province of Granada (Spain).
Two themes emerged: "Migrant caregiver at the end of life" and "And now, what should I do?": the impact of the loss at the economic, emotional and labor level.
Care during the end of life of the cared person generates an additional overload to the situation of migrant women. The experience of this stage is related to the bond with the persons cared and their families, which may affect the development of complicated grief and personal problems related to the loss of employment and the absence of economic support.
描述和理解拉丁裔移民妇女作为患有晚期疾病和生命末期的老年人的照顾者的体验。
使用伽达默尔的解释学现象学进行定性研究。数据于 2019 年收集，通过与在西班牙格拉纳达省照顾生命末期患者的 9 名拉丁裔女性照顾者进行 9 次半结构化访谈获得。
出现了两个主题：“生命末期的移民照顾者”和“现在我该怎么办？”：经济、情感和劳动力层面的损失的影响。
对被照顾者生命末期的照顾给移民妇女的处境增加了额外的负担。这一阶段的经历与与被照顾者及其家庭的关系有关，这可能会影响到复杂悲痛的发展以及与失业和缺乏经济支持相关的个人问题。
