With the rapid development of the global economy,the level of medical care has improved year by year and the medical security system has gradually improved.While the standard of living of the general public has continued to improve,the growth of the elderly population has also gradually accelerated.With the natural aging of the body,the aging population will produce many aging diseases.Some more serious diseases will completely or partially lose the ability of patients to live independently.Family members have to spend a lot of time or even quit their jobs to take care of them full-time at home.Dementia is Such diseases.It is understood that dementia in the elderly is more symptomatic of the elderly in the current family,and the incidence of the disease will increase with age.In the daily home care work of the elderly with dementia,their family caregivers often have to complete a variety of nursing tasks and housework,and assume multiple roles.As the brain and body functions of patients with dementia increase with age,their memory ability,self-care ability,and self-control ability are gradually degraded.They are weaker than normal elderly people.In addition,there are various complications caused by dementia.Getting proper and scientific care will lead to other complications and worsen the condition.As a result,family caregivers are more difficult to care for and have more responsibilities.In the daily care process,family caregivers not only have to face nursing and housework,but also deal with the negative emotions generated in daily care.In the nursing process,some family members have great mental pressure due to excessive sense of responsibility.The accumulation of these pressures affects their physical and mental health and the quality of care,and even leads to negative emotions such as anxiety and depression.This research takes 10 family caregivers of elderly people with dementia in X Street,S Community,Pukou District,Nanjing City as the research objects.Based on the research of relevant nursing staff,surveys and studies are conducted through questionnaires,observations and interviews,and team activities The current situation of emotional support of the family caregivers of an elderly dementia is analyzed,and the methods and ways to increase emotional support are sought.The survey found that the financial support of the family caregivers of the demented elderly in the S community is not too problematic,but there are deficiencies in love letter guidance,self-identification,and interpersonal communication.That is,due to limited conditions,the family caregivers of the demented elderly have the opportunity to communicate with others and their emotions.There is a serious lack of emotional support and identification support for the person to talk to.This research mainly uses group activities and visits to in-depth research on the lack of emotional support of the research subjects and the change of emotional support state,find out the influencing factors of spiritual support,and provide practical suggestions for the improvement of their spiritual life and emotional support.And provide a basis for its intervention and support.In the process of group practice and visits and investigations,with the support of social support and group dynamics,a total of seven group activities were designed,and the activities were planned according to the characteristics of the survey objects,seeking to explore the potential of family caregivers It is also hoped that through mutual help and guidance between group members,they can face difficulties together and strengthen their efforts.They should take care of the problems in nursing work,and encourage family caregivers to increase emotional support by sharing the mental pressure with each other.Through the comparison of the analysis results before and after the research data,the group activities of this research process have achieved part of the expected results.Finally,I hope to increase the attention of the family caregivers of the demented elderly,give them more social support,and help more families to get out of the predicament and get a healthy life.
