Redes sociales y recursos de apoyo a cuidadores familiares y personas dependientes : comparación 2001-2009

Abstract

S e presenta la comparación de las redes sociales y recursos de apoyo a cuidadores y personas dependientes, en el ámbito de la atención primaria de salud de Albacete, entre los años 2001 y 2009. Metodología: Estudio socioepidemiológico observacional con cuidadores familiares de personas dependientes atendidas en domicilio procedentes de dos muestras: años 2001 (167 sujetos) y 2009 (78 sujetos). Las principales variables son las características de cuidadores y personas cuidadas, dedicación y motivación para el cuidado, redes profesionales, redes sociales, recursos de apoyo y prestaciones. Se realizó una estadística descriptiva básica, así como una comparación de medias y proporciones. Resultados principales: Las mujeres, amas de casa, entre 50 y 70 años, son las cuidadoras principales. No se aprecia una mayor equidad en el reparto de la carga de cuidado en la muestra más reciente. Las personas cuidadas son la mayoría mujeres (71%-58%), edad media superior a 80 años, pensionistas y afectadas de patologías crónicodegenerativas. La mayoría cuida por iniciativa propia (80%) y son poco frecuentes los condicionantes externos. La duración del cuidado varía de 5 a 9 años de promedio y la intensidad es alta, cerca de 20h/día. Los principales apoyos provienen de enfermeras y médicos. El cuidado se concentra en las personas cuidadoras principales. Se aprecia una mayor percepción del apoyo de los trabajadores sociales y psicólogos en la muestra de 2009. La mayoría de las personas dependientes no dispone de recursos de apoyo y prestaciones contempladas en la normativa actual. La percepción de apoyo social es más alta en la muestra más reciente.

W e provide a comparison of the social networks and support resources for caregivers and their dependents in the field of Primary Health Care in Albacete (Spain) in the period between 2001 and 2009. Methods: socio-epidemiological observational study with family caregivers of dependent people who are treated at home from two samples: year 2001 (167 subjects) and 2009 (78 subjects). The main variables studied are: characteristics of caregivers, characteristics of care recipients, dedication and motivation to care, professional networks, social networks, support resources and benefits. Analyses conducted include frequencies, statistics, comparison of means and proportions with the corresponding tests. Main results: Women, housewives, aged 50 to 70, are the main caregivers. Changes toward greater equity in sharing the burden of care are not appreciated. Dependents are mostly women (71% -58%) over 80, pensioners and affected by chronic degenerative diseases. Most of family caregivers care on their own initiative (80%) and external determinants are unusual. The duration of care varies from 5-9 years on average with an intensity of about 20 hours a day. The main professional support comes from nurses and doctors. Care concentrates in the main caregiver. There is a noticeable increase in the support of social workers and psychologists. The vast majority of dependents do not enjoy the support resources and benefits under the current legislation. The perception of social support is higher in the most recent sample.
