[The survey of mental factors of the caregivers who nurse their family member at home].
For the purpose of identifying the mental factors of the caregivers who attended their family member's deathbed at home and to find a better course of action for family support, we have conducted a questionnaire survey. The survey found that it is necessary for a visiting nurse to assist the family in choosing the home health care as they wish. This will require cooperation between a nurse and a doctor on pain relief for the patient and to explain the predicted conditions of the patients to the family member. In that case, we believe that it is possible for us to serve a function to alleviate the uneasiness of the caregivers and support them for decision making.
